This requires the PROFESSIONAL teir API key or higher and is limitted to 50 IPs at a time.See:https://ipstack.com/documentation#bulklocations=geo_lookup.get_location("github.com","stackoverflow.com")print(locations)Requesting the hostname for an IP address.By default, the ipstack API does not return information about the hostname the given IP address resolves to. In order to include the hostname use the following.See:https://ipstack.com/documentation#hostnamelocation=geo_lookup.find_hostname().get_location("1.1.1.1")print(location["hostname"])one.one.one.oneAssessing SecurityCustomers subscribed to the Professional Plus Plan may access the ipstack API's Security Module, which can be used to assess risks and threats originating from certain IP addresses before any harm can be done to a website or web application.See:https://ipstack.com/documentation#securitylocation=geo_lookup.assess_security().get_location("github.com")Set the language for a responseThe ipstack API is capable of delivering its result set in different languages. To request data in a language other than English (default) use following with one of the supported language codes.See:https://ipstack.com/documentation#languageSupported Langaugeslocation=geo_lookup.language("en").get_location("github.com")Configuring your request# Use HTTPS# This requires IPStack Basic plan or higher.location=geo_lookup.use_https().get_location("github.com")# Configure the timeout for requestslocation=geo_lookup.timeout(10).get_location("github.com")DevelopmentBefore commiting anything, please create a pre-commit hook with the following content.This will ensure that the pycodestyle badge is properly updated.#!/bin/bashpython3tests/style.py
