Reliable and fast local geo-ip api based on MaxMind geoip2 database.

Database can be scheduled (set up a cron) to be updated every day with bin/update command.

• PHP 8.1+
• Composer
• MySQL / MariaDB database

1. Download this project and run composer install to install dependencies.
2. Register at maxmind.com and get your free geolite2 license key and account id.
3. Copy config.sample.php to config.php and set your license key, account id and database credentials.
4. Make sure you are not using tables ip4_blocks, ip6_blocks and ip_locations as they will be overwritten.
5. Run bin/update to download and import the database to your local db (~400MB).
6. Open a web server (for instance php -S localhost:1234 ./public/index.php)
7. Make a request to http://localhost:1234?ip=<ip>

Feel free to dockerize this project or make PR with more customization options.
