IPinfo-Custom

This is not the official repo.

You can get rid of dirty data, at least to some extent, with the IsCrawler property. You must send crawler names from appsettings.json in the following format.

"CheckCrawlers": {
  "Enable": true,
  "Names": [ "google" ]
}

You must also send the configuration (an implementation of IConfiguration) along with your API token.

// initializing IPinfo client
string token = "MY_TOKEN";
IPinfoClient client = new IPinfoClient.Builder()
    .AccessToken(token, configuration)
    .Build();

This is the forked repo from official C# .NET SDK for the IPinfo.io IP address API, allowing you to look up your own IP address, or get any of the following details for other IP addresses:

• IP geolocation (city, region, country, postal code, latitude, and longitude)
• ASN details (ISP or network operator, associated domain name, and type, such as business, hosting, or company)
• Firmographics data (the name and domain of the business that uses the IP address)
• Carrier information (the name of the mobile carrier and MNC and MCC for that carrier if the IP is used exclusively for mobile traffic)

Getting Started

You'll need an IPinfo API access token, which you can get by signing up for a free account at https://ipinfo.io/signup.

The free plan is limited to 50,000 requests per month, and doesn't include some of the data fields such as IP type and company data. To enable all the data fields and additional request volumes see https://ipinfo.io/pricing

Installation

This package can be installed from NuGet.

Install using Package Manager

Install-Package IPinfo-Custom

Install using the dotnet CLI

dotnet add package IPinfo-Custom

Install with NuGet.exe

nuget install IPinfo-Custom

Quick Start

// namespace
using IPinfo;
using IPinfo.Models;

// initializing IPinfo client
string token = "MY_TOKEN";
IPinfoClient client = new IPinfoClient.Builder()
    .AccessToken(token)
    .Build();

Usage

// making API call
string ip = "216.239.36.21";
IPResponse ipResponse = await client.IPApi.GetDetailsAsync(ip);

// accessing location details from response
Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.IP: {ipResponse.IP}");
Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.City: {ipResponse.City}");
Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.Company.Name: {ipResponse.Company.Name}");
Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.Country: {ipResponse.Country}");
Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.CountryName: {ipResponse.CountryName}");

Synchronous

// making synchronous API call
string ip = "216.239.36.21";
IPResponse ipResponse = client.IPApi.GetDetails(ip);

Country Name Lookup

ipResponse.CountryName will return the country name, whereas ipResponse.Country can be used to fetch the country code.

Additionally ipResponse.IsEU will return true if the country is a member of the European Union (EU), response.CountryFlag will return the emoji and Unicode of the country's flag, response.CountryCurrency will return the code and symbol of the country's currency ,and response.Continent will return the code and name of the continent. response.CountryFlagURL will return a public link to the country's flag image as an SVG which can be used anywhere.

string ip = "1.1.1.1";

// making API call
IPResponse ipResponse = await client.IPApi.GetDetailsAsync(ip);

// country code, e.g. 'US'
Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.Country: {ipResponse.Country}");

// country name, e.g. 'United States'
Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.CountryName: {ipResponse.CountryName}");

// whether part of the EU, e.g. false
Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.isEU: {ipResponse.isEU}");

// country flag emoji, e.g. "US" -> "🇺🇸"
Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.CountryFlag.Emoji: {ipResponse.CountryFlag.Emoji}");

// country flag url, e.g. "US" -> "https://cdn.ipinfo.io/static/images/countries-flags/US.svg"
Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.CountryFlagurl: {ipResponse.CountryFlagURL}");

// country flag unicode, e.g. "US" -> "U+1F1FA U+1F1F8"
Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.CountryFlag.Unicode: {ipResponse.CountryFlag.Unicode}");

// currency code, e.g. "US" -> "USD"
Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.CountryCurrency.Code: {ipResponse.CountryCurrency.Code}");

// currency symbol, e.g. "US" -> "$"
Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.CountryCurrency.Symbol: {ipResponse.CountryCurrency.Symbol}");

// continent code, e.g. "US" -> "NA"
Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.Continent.Code: {ipResponse.Continent.Code}");

// continent name, e.g. "US" -> "North America"
Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.Continent.Name: {ipResponse.Continent.Name}");

Caching

In-memory caching of data is provided by default. Custom implementation of the cache can also be provided by implementing the ICache interface.

Modifying cache options

// namespace
using IPinfo;
using IPinfo.Cache;

long cacheEntryTimeToLiveInSeconds = 2*60*60*24; // 2 days
int cacheSizeMbs = 2;
IPinfoClient client = new IPinfoClient.Builder()
    .AccessToken(token) // pass your token string
    .Cache(new CacheWrapper(cacheConfig => cacheConfig
        .CacheMaxMbs(cacheSizeMbs) // pass cache size in mbs
        .CacheTtl(cacheEntryTimeToLiveInSeconds))) // pass time to live in seconds for cache entry
    .Build();

Bogon Filtering

The Bogon property of the IPResponse object can be used to check if an IP address is a bogon.

// namespace
using IPinfo;
using IPinfo.Models;

string ip = "127.0.0.1";
IPResponse ipResponse = await client.IPApi.GetDetailsAsync(ip);
if (ipResponse.Bogon)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"{ipResponse.IP} is a bogon.");   
}
else
{
    // display ip details
    Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.IP: {ipResponse.IP}");
    Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.City: {ipResponse.City}");
    Console.WriteLine($"IPResponse.CountryName: {ipResponse.CountryName}");
}

Thread Safety

This library is thread safe when using default components.

If you decide to replace the cache implementation with your own, you must guarantee thread safety within that library in regard to cache manipulations.

Samples

Sample codes are also available.

Other Libraries

There are official IPinfo client libraries available for many languages including PHP, Go, Java, Ruby, and many popular frameworks such as Django, Rails, and Laravel. There are also many third-party libraries and integrations available for our API.
