The IP2Location Toolkit is a command-line interface (CLI) tool that allows you to download and select IP2Location databases. IP2Location databases provide information about IP addresses, such as their location, ISP, and other details.
To install the IP2Location Toolkit, you will need to have Python 3 or later installed. You can then install the toolkit using the following command:
pip install ip2location-toolkit
Once you have installed the IP2Location Toolkit, you can use it by running the following command:
ip2location-toolkit
This will open the toolkit's main menu, which provides you with the following options:
- Download: Downloads an IP2Location database file.
- Select: Prompts you to select a database type, content, IP type, and database format.
- Exit: Exits the toolkit.
To download an IP2Location database, select the "Download" option from the main menu. You will then be prompted to enter your IP2Location API token. You can obtain an API token by creating an account on the IP2Location website.
Once you have entered your API token, you will be prompted to select a database code. The database code is a unique identifier for each IP2Location database. You can find a list of database codes on the IP2Location website.
After you have selected a database code, you will be prompted to select an output directory. The output directory is the location where the downloaded database file will be saved.
Once you have selected an output directory, the toolkit will download the database file and extract it to the specified directory.
To select a database, select the "Select" option from the main menu. You will then be prompted to select a database type, content, IP type, and database format.
The database type is the type of information that the database contains. For example, you can select a database that contains information about IP addresses, countries, or cities.
The database content is the specific information that the database contains. For example, you can select a database that contains information about IP addresses, ISPs, or time zones.
The IP type is the type of IP address that the database contains. You can select a database that contains information about IPv4 addresses, IPv6 addresses, or both.
The database format is the
