Example usage


import bigdatacloudapi

apiKey = 'XXX' # XXX being your api key found at: https://www.bigdatacloud.com/account

client = bigdatacloudapi.Client(apiKey)

resultObject,httpResponseCode = client.getIpGeolocationFull({"ip":"8.8.8.8"})

print('HTTP Response Code: ',httpResponseCode)
print('Lookup IP: ',resultObject['ip'])
print('Result: ',resultObject)

Please note that you can obtain the function name for each API by prefixing the capitalized API endpoint with 'get'. For example: 'ip-geolocation-with-confidence' can be called using getIpGeolocationWithConfidence().
