ip_to_hosting

IP to Hosting

This package allows you to check whether an IP address belongs to a hosting provider. In case the IP address can be successfully linked to a hosting provider (datacenter), this module will return the meta information for the hosting provider.

Installation

npm install ip-to-hosting

If you want to clone the repository directly from GitHub instead:

git clone [e-mail]:ipapi-is/ip_to_asn.git

Usage

Lookup the IP address 144.168.164.55:

const { ipToHosting } = require('./src/ip_to_hosting');

(async () => {
  console.log(await ipToHosting('144.168.164.55'));
})();

which outputs (at the time of writing):

{
  datacenter: 'B2 Net Solutions Inc.',
  domain: 'www.servermania.com',
  network: '144.168.128.0 - 144.168.255.255'
}

If the IP address belongs to a datacenter/hosting provider, the API response will return an object with the following attributes:

• datacenter - string - to which datacenter the IP address belongs. For a full list of datacenters, check the ipapi.is/json/info endpoint. In this case, the datacenter's name is B2 Net Solutions Inc..
• domain - string - The domain name of the company
• network - string - the network this IP address belongs to (In the above case: 144.168.128.0 - 144.168.255.255)

Most IP's don't belong to a hosting provider. In those cases, the response will be null.
