Feature request: Using IPinfo IP to Country ASN database

[abdullahdevrel]

I am requesting to add support for IPinfo's IP to Country database to the project. The database has the following features:

• It includes country and ASN information in the same database.
• It is updated daily, with zero compromise to accuracy. There is no range clustering, and the database provides full accuracy.
• The data granularity reaches individual IP level.
• The database comes in MMDB database format.
• It is licensed under CC-BY-SA 4.0, permitting commercial usage.
• Available file formats include: CSV, MMDB, JSON
• The data is tabular and unnested, making it very easy to use. The dataset includes both IPv4 and IPv6 in a single file.

Database schema

Field Name	Example	Data Type	Description
start_ip	1.0.16.0	TEXT	Starting IP address of an IP address range
end_ip	1.0.31.255	TEXT	Ending IP address of an IP address range
country	JP	TEXT	ISO 3166 country code of the location
country_name	Japan	TEXT	Name of the country
continent	AS	TEXT	Continent code of the country
continent_name	Asia	TEXT	Name of the continent
asn	AS2519	TEXT	Autonomous System Number
as_name	ARTERIA Networks Corporation	TEXT	Name of the AS (Autonomous System) organization
as_domain	arteria-net.com	TEXT	Official domain or website of the AS organization

Documentation: https://ipinfo.io/developers/ip-to-country-asn-database

Samples are available here: https://github.com/ipinfo/sample-database/tree/main/IP%20to%20Country%20ASN

The database can be downloaded simply by accessing the storage URI with an access token.

curl -L https://ipinfo.io/data/free/country_asn.mmdb?token=<YOUR_TOKEN> -o country_asn.mmdb

Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Thanks for requests and detailed description for schema!

Currently we are planning to change repository and maintainer as #5 which is created in typescript and better build system.
Therefore, I would like to unchange current program before working in the new repository, because this issue needs many changes to program.

By the way, country means where the asn organization's country or real position of ip-address user?

@sapics My apologies for the late response! No worries. This is merely a feature request nothing more.

By the way, country means where the asn organization's country or real position of ip-address user?

The latter. In the free IP to Country ASN database, we include the user's country IP geolocation.

This is a really good point as we have an ASN database where the country of the ASN is listed.

Thank you for letting us know!

When the new build system is created, we plan to create new package which is compatible with the asn database!
