AS207111 Whois for JavaScript

Geolocation, Proxy, VPN or Tor exit address detection, for free.

AS207111 provides a free Whois service for content customization, advertising, digital rights management, compliance, fraud & proxy detection, security and more.

You will always have the most accurate location data available for every API request, without having to worry about maintaining a local database. For Proxy, VPN or Tor exit address detection, we use machine learning & probability theory techniques using large datasets from different sources with 11,500+ networks from 2,200+ privacy providers.

Installation

The recommended way to install AS207111 Whois is through NPM.

npm install @as207111/whois --save

Getting Started

First, request a free api access token from https://whois.as207111.net to get access to all api features, including all premium features, like privacy lookups.

Then initialize a new client with your API Access Token and call the lookup method to lookup any IPv4 or IPv6 address.

We recommend using the client only server-side, so that your API access token is not exposed.

import {Client} from "@as207111/whois";

// instantiate a new api client with your api acces token
const client = new Client("xxx|xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx");

// lookup a given ipv4 or ipv6 address
const response = await client.lookup("2001:67c:770::");

// display the response
console.log(response);
