api.db-ip.com IPv4 Geolocation Lookup

See more Geolocation Examples

Demonstrates how to lookup Geolocation data for an IPv4 address using the api.db-ip.com REST API. Zig

const std = @import("std");
const chilkat = @import("chilkat");

pub fn main(init: std.process.Init) !void {
    const alloc = init.arena.allocator();

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

    const http = try chilkat.Http.init();
    defer http.deinit();

    // Lookup an IPv4 address: 149.250.207.170  (this was a randomly chosen address)
    const json_str = http.quickGetStr(alloc, "http://api.db-ip.com/v2/free/149.250.207.170") catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try http.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };
