ipvanish-server-capacity

ipvanish-server-capacity is a small little console application that queries the IPVanish server estate and reports on the current capacity across of the indivual servers. For example, running the command

ipvcap -c Denmark

will yield something similar to this

Server cph-c09.ipvanish.com in Copenhagen,Denmark is at 8%
Server cph-c12.ipvanish.com in Copenhagen,Denmark is at 8%
Server cph-c19.ipvanish.com in Copenhagen,Denmark is at 9%
Server cph-c15.ipvanish.com in Copenhagen,Denmark is at 10%
Server cph-c16.ipvanish.com in Copenhagen,Denmark is at 10%
Server cph-b01.ipvanish.com in Copenhagen,Denmark is at 11%
Server cph-c18.ipvanish.com in Copenhagen,Denmark is at 12%
Server cph-c07.ipvanish.com in Copenhagen,Denmark is at 13%

Installation

The only pre-req is to have python3 installed, so if python3 is installed, simply just clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/justdanyul/ipvanish-server-capacity.git

and run the setup.py as follows

sudo python3 setup.py install

After this, when opening a new terminal you should have the command ipvcap at your disposal.

Basic usage

To display capacity across all servers, type the folowing in a terminal

ipvcap

Now, if you wish to filter the list of servers, based on country, add the -c argument as follows

ipvcap -c COUNTRY

notice, if you are filtering based on country, remember quotes for country names containing spaces. For example

ipvcap -c "United Kingdom"

and finally, to get help, use ipvcap -h or ipvcap --help
