ipdata.co IPv4 Geolocation Lookup

See more Geolocation Examples

Demonstrates how to lookup Geolocation data for an IPv4 address using the ipdata.co API. Lua

local chilkat = require("chilkat")

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

local http = chilkat.Http.new()

local jsonStr = http:quick_get_str("https://api.ipdata.co/149.250.207.170?api-key=MY_API_KEY")
if not http.last_method_success then
    print(http.last_error_text)
    return
end

local json = chilkat.JsonObject.new()
json.emit_compact = false
local success = json:load(jsonStr)

print(json:emit())
