About:
ipinfo-cli is the official command-line interface for interacting with the IPinfo.io API. It allows users to quickly retrieve detailed geolocation, ASN, and hosting information for any IP address or domain. This tool is essential for network diagnostics, security analysis, and data enrichment directly from the terminal.

  • ASN and hosting provider detection
  • Privacy and VPN detection features
  • Batch processing support for multiple IPs
Use Cases:
  • Debugging network connectivity issues by identifying server locations
  • Verifying VPN or proxy usage for security auditing
  • Enriching log data with geolocation information
Alternatives:
  • curl – Generic HTTP client; requires manual JSON parsing and API key handling
  • whois – Standard network admin tool; provides registry data but lacks structured JSON output
