Simple IP information service and Telegram bot.

• ipwho-web: Flask service exposing plain text and JSON IP info
• ipwho-bot: Telegram bot that resolves hosts/links and returns geo info

Both services run from the same Docker image and are orchestrated via Docker Compose.

Images are published to GHCR with two component tags:

• ghcr.io/machka-pasla/ipwho:web
• ghcr.io/machka-pasla/ipwho:bot

Prerequisites: Docker and Docker Compose.

1. Network

docker network create \
  --ipv6 \
  --subnet "fd00:dead:beef:1::/64" \
  --gateway "fd00:dead:beef:1::1" \
  ipwho-network || true

2. Download required files:

# create a work dir
mkdir ipwho && cd ipwho

# fetch docker-compose and env example from your repo
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/machka-pasla/ipwho/main/docker-compose.yml -o docker-compose.yml
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/machka-pasla/ipwho/main/.env.example -o .env.example

3. Prepare environment:

mv .env.example .env
# edit .env and fill required values

4. Start services (pulls images):

docker compose up -d

To update later:

docker compose pull
docker compose down && docker compose up -d

Set these in your .env file:

• LICENSE_KEY: MaxMind GeoLite2 license key (required for DB updates)
• IPINFO_TOKEN (optional): IPinfo token for IPinfo Lite DB downloads
• API_TOKEN: Telegram bot token
• WEBHOOK_DOMAIN: Public domain/URL reachable by Telegram (e.g. example.com or https://example.com)
• WEBHOOK_PATH (optional): Custom webhook path, e.g. /bot/<token>
• WEBHOOK_SECRET (optional): Secret for webhook verification
• WEBHOOK_PORT (default 8080): Port the bot listens on

• ipwho-web (Flask)

  • Listens on port 30000 inside the container
  • Endpoints:

    • /json JSON info for client IP
    • /<ip> and /json/<ip> info for specific IP

• ipwho-bot (Telegram bot)
