See more Geolocation Examples

Demonstrates how to lookup Geolocation data for an IPv4 address using the geo.ipify.org REST API. Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

# This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

$http = chilkat::CkHttp->new();

# Lookup an IPv4 address: 8.8.8.8
$jsonStr = $http->quickGetStr("https://geo.ipify.org/api/v1?apiKey=API_KEY&ipAddress=8.8.8.8");
if ($http->get_LastMethodSuccess() == 0) {
    print $http->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

$json = chilkat::CkJsonObject->new();
$json->put_EmitCompact(0);
$success = $json->Load($jsonStr);

print $json->emit() . "\r\n";
