var http = new CkHttp();

// Lookup an IPv4 address: 149.250.207.170  (this was a randomly chosen address)
var jsonStr = http.QuickGetStr("http://api.db-ip.com/v2/free/149.250.207.170");
if (http.LastMethodSuccess == false) {
    console.log(http.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

var json = new CkJsonObject();
json.EmitCompact = false;
success = json.Load(jsonStr);

console.log(json.Emit());
