Official Python client for MaxMind's GeoIP2 and GeoLite web services and a reader for MaxMind MMDB geolocation databases. It lets applications look up country, city, and other data for IP addresses.
Use cases
- look up the country or city of an IP address in Python
- read MaxMind GeoLite2 mmdb database files
- query the GeoIP2 web service from a web app
- geolocate user requests by IP for analytics or personalization
- add IP-based location data to log processing
When to choose
- you need IP geolocation in a Python application
- you use MaxMind GeoIP2 or GeoLite2 data sources
- you want an official, maintained client with sync and async support
When to avoid
- you need offline geolocation without MaxMind data or a license
- you need precise street-level location (IP geolocation is imprecise)
- you work in a non-Python stack
