Documentation of the api of ipdata

IPDataDotCo allows you to create the URLRequest you need to request the api, then you are free to include it in your network workflow.

Requirements

• iOS 8.0+ / macOS 10.10+
• Swift 5+

Usage

// Prepare the API to use your api key
let settings = IPDataDotCo.Settings(apiKey: "YOUR_API_KEY")

// If the api enpoint has changed (default: https://api.ipdata.co), you can use
let settings = IPDataDotCo.Settings(host: "HTTPS://NEW_ENDPOINT", apiKey: "YOUR_API_KEY")

// create a new `IPDataDotCo` with your settings
let ipdata = IPDataDotCo(with: settings)

// for a call to look up your current ip
let request = ipdata.lookupRequest()

// for a call to look up a specific ip
let request = ipdata.lookupRequest(ip: "8.8.8.8")

// for a call to look up a specific ip's country name with a link to it's flag png.
let request = ipdata.lookupRequest(ip: "8.8.8.8", for: [.countryName, .flag])

This call needs custom parsing of the response JSON

// for a call to look up a specific ip's country name
let request = ipdata.lookupRequest(ip: "8.8.8.8", for: .countryName)

for paid user

// for a call to look up a bulk of ips (max 100 ip per request)
let request = ipdata.bulkLookUpRequest(ips: ["8.8.8.8", "1.1.1.1"])

Parsing the response be like

// use of `IPDataDotCo.JSONRootObject` to decode the JSON
let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: request) { (data, response, error) in

    if let http = response as? HTTPURLResponse {
        // check status error / http.statusCode
        
        // **200** successful response
        // **400** bad ip or bulk with more than 100 ips
        // **401** missing api-key
        // **403** quota exceeded or not a valid api-key

    }

    if let data = data {
        // for normal requests, but the one with only 1 field
        let object = try? JSONDecoder().decode(IPDataDotCo.JSONRootObject.self, from: data)

        // for bulk request
        let object = try? JSONDecoder().decode([IPDataDotCo.JSONRootObject].self, from: data)

        // ...

    }
}

task.resume()
