ipinfo-cli

A Command Line Interface (CLI) tool for retrieving information about IP addresses using the ipinfo.io API.

Installation

To install ipinfo-cli, ensure you have Python and pip installed on your system. Then, run the following command:

pip install ipinfo-cli

Usage

After installation, you can use ipinfo-cli to get information about a given IP address by running:

ipinfo-cli --ip <IP_ADDRESS>

A ipinfo.io token can be saved for further API information and negating rate limiting. This can be done by running:

ipinfo-cli --token <TOKEN>

# deleting the saved token
ipinfo-cli --delete-token

Saving the results to a JSON file can be done by running the following with the EXACT directory path and JSON file name:

ipinfo-cli --ip <IP_ADDRESS> --json <DIRECTORY>

# example
ipinfo-cli --ip <IP_ADDRESS> --json /path/to/file/output.json

Argument	Description

--json	Saves the output to a JSON file in a given directory.
--token	Saves your ipinfo.io token to a file for future requests.
