IP Address Utilities

Ip To Integer

Converts IPv4 addresses to 32-bit integers for efficient storage, comparison, and range queries. Use via MCP in AI coding tools or GET /v1/ip/to-integer endpoint. Example: "192.168.1.1" becomes 3232235777. Essential for network calculations, IP range validation, and database indexing where integer operations outperform string matching.

API Endpoint

GET /v1/ip/to-integer

Code Examples

curl "https://tinyfn.io/v1/ip/to-integer" \
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"
const response = await fetch('https://tinyfn.io/v1/ip/to-integer', {
  headers: { 'X-API-Key': 'YOUR_API_KEY' }
});
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);
import requests

response = requests.get('https://tinyfn.io/v1/ip/to-integer',
    headers={'X-API-Key': 'YOUR_API_KEY'})
data = response.json()
print(data)

Use via MCP

Add to your AI agent

Connect your AI agent (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) to TinyFn's ip address tools:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tinyfn-ip": {
      "url": "https://tinyfn.io/mcp/ip",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

FAQ

How do I convert an IP address to integer using MCP in Cursor?

Call the ip_to_integer tool with the IP string as parameter. The MCP tool returns the 32-bit integer representation instantly without network calls.

What integer does 192.168.1.1 convert to?

192.168.1.1 converts to 3232235777. This follows the standard formula: (192×256³) + (168×256²) + (1×256¹) + (1×256⁰).

Can I convert IPv6 addresses to integers?

No, this tool only handles IPv4 addresses. IPv6 requires 128-bit integers which exceed standard integer limits in most programming languages.

Why convert IP addresses to integers instead of keeping them as strings?

Integer comparisons are faster for range queries, sorting, and database indexing. Integers also use less storage and enable efficient subnet calculations.

What happens if I pass an invalid IP address format?

The tool returns an error for malformed inputs like incomplete octets, values over 255, or non-numeric characters. Always validate IP format first.
