Demonstrates how to lookup Geolocation data for an IPv4 address using the ip2location.io GeoLocation API. React Native

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

  const http = new Http();

  // Note: This is not a real API key.  Replace with your own...

  // Note: When first creating an ip2location.io account, make sure to at least subscribe to the free access.
  // Otherwise your API key will not yet work..
