Better ip address widget

Value7609

There is currently an ip address widget if you search for "ip address". It shows either your ipv6 or ipv4 (probably depends on how you connect to kagi).

This could be improved by having an ipv6 and ipv4 only domain to check both ip versions, e.g. make a connection to ipv4.kagi.com and ipv6.kagi.com.

Additionally it currently only shows the country, but not a more specific location like city / state (yes I'm aware that ip address locations can't be precise).

It would also be interesting to see more information like ASN, reverse dns, ...

Something like https://ipinfo.io/ does.

It would also be great to get this widget when searching for an ip address like 1.1.1.1

Currently there are the ip location bangs, but these pages are often filled with ads or slow to load.

If it was possible to get this information directly in kagi, by either searching for the address or searching for "ip address", this would be a huge QoL improvement especiallly when being on mobile.

Would be really helpful to see more information there!

I think using a dedicated website like https://ip.me/ is easier.

azdanov yes, but it is very distracting, for example this site promotes proton vpn. And I know of many sites like this, but always needing to remember how that website was called or needing to open that website and then entering the ip address is not that simple like just pasting it into the search bar would be.

And the ip address widget already exists, so why not extend it to make it more useful.

Of course, Kagi could use https://github.com/rthalley/dnspython for additional info for the widget.
