Build Status Coverage Status

SYNOPSIS

        use Geo::IP2Location::Lite;

        my $obj = Geo::IP2Location::Lite->open( "/path/to/IP-COUNTRY.BIN" );

        my $countryshort = $obj->get_country_short("20.11.187.239");
        my $countrylong  = $obj->get_country_long("20.11.187.239");
        my $region       = $obj->get_region("20.11.187.239");
        ...

        my ( $cos,$col,$reg ... ) = $obj->get_all("20.11.187.239");

DESCRIPTION

This module is a lightweight version of Geo::IP2Location that is compatible with IPv4 BIN files only. It fixes all the current issues against the current version of Geo::IP2Location and makes the perl more idiomatic (and thus easier to maintain). The code is also compatible with older perls (Geo::IP2Location currently only works with 5.14 and above).

You should see the documentation for the original Geo::IP2Location module for a complete list of available methods, the documentation below includes additional methods addded by this module only.

DIFFERENCES FROM Geo::IP2Location

The get_country method has been added to get both short and long in one call:

        my ( $country_short,$country_long ) = $obj->get_country( $ip );

The ISO-3166 code for United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland has been corrected from UK to GB
