This gem contains a simple sinatra-based web application for MaxMind's GeoIP service lookup.
First, install jaeheego.
$ gem install jaeheegeo
Then run the command below to install geoip data:
$ sudo install_geoip
To run the application, just run:
$ jaeheegeo start
It will run the sinatra application on thin. So you can provide
additional parameters like -p or -d. Default port is 4009.
While the application is running, try these:
$ curl http://localhost:4009/geoip/220.93.126.147
$ curl http://localhost:4009/geoip/klassmate.com
The output is like this:
{"country":"US","county":"CA","city":"San Francisco","lat":37.769699,"lng":-122.393303,"version":"GeoIP City Edition"}
JSONP is also supported for cross domain request. Just pass callback
parameter additionally.
