geo.ipify.org IPv4 Geolocation Lookup

See more Geolocation Examples

Demonstrates how to lookup Geolocation data for an IPv4 address using the geo.ipify.org 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: 8.8.8.8
    const json_str = http.quickGetStr(alloc, "https://geo.ipify.org/api/v1?apiKey=API_KEY&ipAddress=8.8.8.8") catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try http.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    const json = try chilkat.JsonObject.init();
    defer json.deinit();
    json.setEmitCompact(false);
    try json.load(json_str);

    std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try json.emit(alloc)});
