Pure Python GeoIP API
Project description
# Pure Python GeoIP API # The API is based on [MaxMind’s C-based Python API](http://www.maxmind.com/app/python), but the code itself is ported from the [Pure PHP GeoIP API](http://pear.php.net/package/Net_GeoIP) by Jim Winstead and Hans Lellelid.
It is mostly a drop-in replacement, except the new and open methods are gone.
Tested using tox with Python version 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3.
## Issues and contribution ##
Bug reports are done by [creating an issue on Github](https://github.com/appliedsec/pygeoip/issues). If you want to contribute you can always [create a pull request](https://github.com/appliedsec/pygeoip/pulls) for discussion and code submission.
## Installation ##
You can easily install pygeoip with setuptools:
easy_install pygeoip
## Supported Databases ##
Country
Region
City
Organization
ISP
ASN
## Quick Documentation ##
Create your GeoIP instance with appropriate access flag. STANDARD reads data from disk when needed, MEMORY_CACHE loads database into memory on instantiation and MMAP_CACHE loads database into memory using mmap.
import pygeoip gi = pygeoip.GeoIP(‘/path/to/GeoIP.dat’, pygeoip.MEMORY_CACHE)
### Country lookup ###
>>> gi.country_code_by_name('google.com') 'US' >>> gi.country_code_by_addr('64.233.161.99') 'US' >>> gi.country_name_by_addr('64.233.161.99') 'United States'
### Region lookup ###
>>> gi = pygeoip.GeoIP('/path/to/GeoIPRegion.dat') >>> gi.region_by_name('apple.com') {'region_name': 'CA', 'country_code': 'US'}
### City lookup ###
>>> gi = pygeoip.GeoIP('/path/to/GeoIPCity.dat') >>> gi.record_by_addr('64.233.161.99') { 'city': 'Mountain View', 'region_name': 'CA', 'area_code': 650, 'longitude': -122.0574, 'country_code3': 'USA', 'latitude': 37.419199999999989, 'postal_code': '94043', 'dma_code': 807, 'country_code': 'US', 'country_name': 'United States', 'continent': 'NA' } >>> gi.time_zone_by_addr('64.233.161.99') 'America/Los_Angeles'
### Organization lookup ###
>>> gi = pygeoip.GeoIP('/path/to/GeoIPOrg.dat') >>> gi.org_by_name('dell.com') 'Dell Computer Corporation'
### ISP lookup ###
>>> gi = pygeoip.GeoIP('/path/to/GeoIPISP.dat') >>> gi.org_by_name('cnn.com') 'Turner Broadcasting System'
### ASN lookup ###
>>> gi = pygeoip.GeoIP('/path/to/GeoIPASNum.dat') >>> gi.org_by_name('cnn.com') 'AS5662 Turner Broadcasting'
