JSON output

$ http ip.gs/json
{
  "ip": "18.215.185.97",
  "ip_decimal": 316127585,
  "country": "United States",
  "country_iso": "US",
  "country_eu": false,
  "latitude": 37.751,
  "longitude": -97.822,
  "time_zone": "America/Chicago",
  "asn": "AS14618",
  "asn_org": "AMAZON-AES",
  "hostname": "ec2-18-215-185-97.compute-1.amazonaws.com",
  "user_agent": {
    "product": "CCBot",
    "version": "2.0",
    "comment": "(https://commoncrawl.org/faq/)",
    "raw_value": "CCBot/2.0 (https://commoncrawl.org/faq/)"
  }
}

Setting the Accept: application/json header also works as expected.

FAQ

How do I force IPv4 or IPv6 lookup?

As of 2018-07-25 it's no longer possible to force protocol using the v4 and v6 subdomains. IPv4 or IPv6 still can be forced by passing the appropiate flag to your client, e.g curl -4 or curl -6.

Is automated use of this service permitted?

Yes, as long as the rate limit is respected. The rate limit is in place to ensure a fair service for all.

Please limit automated requests to 1 request per minute. No guarantee is made for requests that exceed this limit. They may be rate-limited, with a 429 status code, or dropped entirely.

Can I run my own service?

Yes, the source code and documentation is available on GitHub.
