A PHP library providing a client for MaxMind's GeoIP2 and GeoLite web services and a reader for their MMDB-format geolocation databases. It lets PHP applications look up geographic and network information for IP addresses.
Use cases
- look up the country or city of an IP address in PHP
- read MaxMind GeoLite2 mmdb databases
- query the GeoIP2 Precision web service
- geolocate website visitors by IP
- detect visitor country for content localization
- enrich logs with IP geolocation data
When to choose
- your application is written in PHP and needs IP geolocation
- you use MaxMind GeoIP2 or GeoLite databases or web services
- you need high-performance local mmdb lookups with an optional C extension
When to avoid
- you need geolocation in another language like Python, Go, or JavaScript
- you want geolocation without MaxMind data or services
- you need precise street-level addresses, which IP geolocation cannot provide
