FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

MaxMind GeoIP Legacy PHP API

End of Life

MaxMind will be retiring the GeoIP Legacy databases at the end of May

  1. Until then, this library will only receive critical security and bug fixes. Support for this library will end completely with the last release of the legacy GeoIP databases.

We recommend that you upgrade to our GeoIP2 databases. You can read these from PHP with our GeoIP2 PHP API.

See our blog post for more information.

Requirements

This module has no external dependencies. You only need a MaxMind GeoIP database.

Install via Composer

We recommend installing this package with Composer.

Download Composer

To download Composer, run in the root directory of your project:

You should now have the file composer.phar in your project directory.

Install Dependencies

Run in your project root:

You should now have the files composer.json and composer.lock as well as the directory vendor in your project directory. If you use a version control system, composer.json should be added to it.

Require Autoloader

After installing the dependencies, you need to require the Composer autoloader from your code:

Install without Composer

Place the 'geoip.inc' file in the include_path as specified in your php.ini file or place it in the same directory as your PHP scripts.

IP Geolocation Usage

IP geolocation is inherently imprecise. Locations are often near the center of the population. Any location provided by a GeoIP database should not be used to identify a particular address or household.

Usage

Gets country name by hostname :

Memory Caching

To enable memory caching, pass GEOIP_SHARED_MEMORY or GEOIP_MEMORY_CACHE as the second argument of geoip_open.

GEOIP_SHARED_MEMORY requires php >= 4.0.4 compiled with --enable-shmop configure time. See (http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ref.shmop.php). In addition, you should call geoip_load_shared_mem before calling geoip_open. See sample_city.php for an example of shared memory caching.

Requirements

This code is tested on PHP 5.4 and greater. Older versions of PHP may work.
