Code Sample:

#!/usr/bin/python
# Python Example code for NumberPortabilityLookup.com

import httplib

# Put your username and password here:
username="username"
password="secret"

# This is the number to be queried:
number="447788450450"

# Call API to perform HLR Query
conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("api.numberportabilitylookup.com")
conn.request("GET", "/npl?user="+username+"&pass="+password+"&msisdn="+number+"&apiver=2.4")
data = conn.getresponse().read()
conn.close()


# Parse the response
response=data.split("\n")

# First line indicates success of the query
if response[0]=="QUERYOK":

	# Response returned OK - now read the data into variables

	# This is a basic example querying a single number.
	# If you queried more than one number in a single API call by delimiting MSISDNs
	# with commas, you could extend the block below to loop through lines of response[]
	# for each pair of msisdn/hlrdata until you reach response[n]=="ENDBATCH"

	(msisdn,hlrdata)=response[1].split(" ",2)
	(plmn,msc,imsi)=hlrdata.split(",",3)

	# Use the data as needed. For this example we will just print it to console:

	print "MSISDN ",msisdn
	print "MSC    ",msc
	print "IMSI   ",imsi

else:
	# If we didn't get "QUERYOK", something broke - tell somebody!

	print "Lookup error:",response[0]
