ipstack support

Hi guys,

There is any chance for given support for the ipstack url request?
I see that the current request is considers the structure of freegeoip:

curl *url*/json/*ip*

but now the request for ipstack is a little different:

curl http://api.ipstack.com/*ip*?access_key=*access_key*

Thanks

Using local database instead of HTTP API

How about using the maxmind files directly, instead of freegeoip.net?

Example: https://maxmind.github.io/MaxMind-DB/

update to cachex 3.1 to support distributed caches

Distributed Caches is part of cachex 3.1 we should update and make cachex :nodes option configurable

Difference of behaviour between IPv4 and IPv6

GeoIP.lookup accepts IP addresses as strings or as Erlang IP address (for instance {204, 62, 14, 153} and it is documented (for instance the example GeoIP.lookup({8, 8, 8, 8})` ). But it is true only for IPv4. IPv6 addresses are only accepted as strings.

iex(2)> GeoIP.lookup({204, 62, 14, 153})                
{:ok,
 %{
   city: "New York City",
   country: "US",
   hostname: "ada.bortzmeyer.org",
   ip: "204.62.14.153",
   loc: "40.7143,-74.0060",
   org: "AS46636 NatCoWeb Corp.",
   postal: "10004",
   readme: "https://ipinfo.io/missingauth",
   region: "New York",
   timezone: "America/New_York"
 }}
iex(3)> GeoIP.lookup({8193, 19352, 3520, 65, 534, 16127, 65063, 15679}) 
{:error,
 %GeoIP.Error{
   id: nil,
   reason: "{\n  \"status\": 404,\n  \"error\": {\n    \"title\": \"Wrong ip\",\n    \"message\": \"Please provide a valid IP address\"\n  }\n}"
 }}

The test suite apparently only tests with IPv4 addresses.

Still uses httppoison 0.9

geoip (version 0.1.2) requires ~> 0.9
mix.lock specifies 1.0.0

Feature Request: Hostname to IP Geolocation using host.io from IPinfo

Hi,

I am the DevRel of IPinfo. We are very happy to be a part of this project; however, it is unfortunate that we do not natively provide hostname to IP address information and only accept IP addresses as input.

To resolve this issue, we would like to add Host.io's services to this project. Host.io provides detailed host-level information, including information on the hosting IP address. The information is quite extensive, and I recommend checking out the full schema from the documentation: https://host.io/docs#apifulldomain

However, regarding IP geolocation, we suggest using only the following API endpoint:

API request to the /ipinfo endpoint

curl https://host.io/api/ipinfo/example.com?token=$token

API response

{
    "93.184.216.34": {
        "city": "Dźwirzyno",
        "region": "West Pomerania",
        "country": "PL",
        "loc": "54.1593,15.4112",
        "postal": "78-100",
        "timezone": "Europe/Warsaw",
        "asn": {
            "asn": "AS15133",
            "name": "Edgecast Inc.",
            "domain": "edg.io",
            "route": "93.184.216.0/24",
            "type": "hosting"
        }
    },
    "2606:2800:220:1:248:1893:25c8:1946": {
        "city": "Los Angeles",
        "region": "California",
        "country": "US",
        "loc": "34.0522,-118.2437",
        "postal": "90009",
        "timezone": "America/Los_Angeles",
        "asn": {
            "asn": "AS15133",
            "name": "Edgecast Inc.",
            "domain": "edg.io",
            "route": "2606:2800:220::/48",
            "type": "hosting"
        }
    }
}

The API provides IP geolocation information of multiple IP addresses related to the hostname. The API also comes with a free tier.

Please, let me know what you think. I can submit a PR as soon as possible. Thank you for reviewing.

Support X-Forwarded-For or X-Real-IP

So I have my app behind an nginx proxy which means the real IP address is set via headers.

I can do you a quick pull request to %Pug.Conn{} match shortly to add this if said headers exist?

Doesn't Support IPv6

When I do GeoIP.lookup("2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334") or any other example v6 address, I get empty results .

Suggestion: Support IP2Location.io API

We would like to propose support for the IP2Location.io API. It has a free tier upon registration. It is one of the fastest API available in the market right now.

We can also offer PR if it is supported.
