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

require 'chilkat'

success = false

# 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() == false)
    print http.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

json = Chilkat::CkJsonObject.new()
json.put_EmitCompact(false)
success = json.Load(jsonStr)

print json.emit() + "\n";
