# ipd
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/martinp/ipd.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/martinp/ipd)
A simple service for looking up your IP address. This is the code that powers
https://ifconfig.co
## Usage
Just the business, please:
```
$ curl ifconfig.co
127.0.0.1
$ http ifconfig.co
127.0.0.1
$ wget -qO- ifconfig.co
127.0.0.1
$ fetch -qo- http://ifconfig.co
127.0.0.1
```
Country and city lookup:
```
$ http ifconfig.co/country
Elbonia
$ http ifconfig.co/city
Bornyasherk
```
As JSON:
```
$ http --json ifconfig.co
{
"city": "Bornyasherk",
"country": "Elbonia",
"ip": "127.0.0.1"
}
```
Pass the appropriate flag (usually `-4` and `-6`) to your tool to switch between
IPv4 and IPv6 lookup.
The subdomains https://v4.ifconfig.co and https://v6.ifconfig.co can be used to
force IPv4 or IPv6 lookup.
## Features
* Easy to remember domain name
* Supports IPv4 and IPv6
* Supports HTTPS
* Open source under the [BSD 3-Clause license](https://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-3-Clause)
* Fast
* Supports typical CLI tools (`curl`, `httpie`, `wget` and `fetch`)
* JSON output (optional)
* Country and city lookup through the MaxMind GeoIP database
## Why?
* To scratch an itch
* An excuse to use Go for something
* Faster than ifconfig.me and has IPv6 support
## Building
Compiling requires the [Golang compiler](https://golang.org/) to be installed.
