MAC Vendors

MAC vendors is a Go library which uses the macvendors.co lookup service, to get vendor information of a network device using its MAC address.

Installation

$ go get github.com/umahmood/macvendors

Usage

To get detailed information about a MAC address, use 'Lookup':

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    
    github.com/umahmood/macvendors"
)

func main() {
    vendor := macvendors.New()
    mac, err := vendor.Lookup("28:18:78:6D:64:42")
    if err != nil {
        //...
    }
    fmt.Println(mac.Address)
    fmt.Println(mac.Company)
    fmt.Println(mac.Country)
    fmt.Println(mac.Type)
    fmt.Println(mac.MacPrefix)
    fmt.Println(mac.StartHex)
    fmt.Println(mac.EndHex)
}

Output:

One Microsoft Way,Redmond  Washington  98052-6399,US
Microsoft Corporation
US
MA-L
28:18:78
281878000000
281878FFFFFF

If you are only interested in the vendor name, use the 'Name' method:

name, err := vendor.Name("28:18:78:6D:64:42")
if err != nil {
    //...
}
fmt.Println(name)

Output:

Microsoft Corporation
