NAME

vmod_geoip2 - Varnish GeoIP2 Lookup Module

SYNOPSIS

import geoip2 [as name] [from "path"]
new xgeoip2 = geoip2.geoip2(STRING filename)


    STRING xgeoip2.lookup(STRING path, IP ip, BOOL json)

DESCRIPTION

new xgeoip2 = geoip2.geoip2(STRING filename)

Description: Opens the GeoIP2 MaxMind binary DB file.
Databases in CSV format are not supported.
Example: new country = geoip2.geoip2("/path/to/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb");

STRING xgeoip2.lookup(STRING path, IP ip, BOOL json=0)

Description

Looks up the IP address ip using the lookup path path.

The path consists of a set of map keys and array indexes separated by slash (/), e.g. "subdivisions/0/names/en".

Returns the value associated with the specified path, or an empty string if the IP address or the path are not found, the value type is not supported or an error occurred.

If the value associated with the specified path is bytes or string type and json is true, the result will be converted to a JSON string.

Supported value types include: boolean, bytes, double, float, int32, uint16, uint32, uint64 and (UTF-8) string.

Diagnostic and error messages, if any, are logged to the VSL using the Debug and Error tags, respectively.

Example

if (country.lookup("country/names/en", client.ip) != "Japan") {


...


}

ERRORS

"geoip2.geoip2: %s"
"geoip2.geoip2: Using maxminddb %s"
"geoip2.lookup: Database not open"
"geoip2.lookup: Invalid or missing path (%s)"
"geoip2.lookup: MMDB_aget_value: %s"
"geoip2.lookup: MMDB_lookup_sockaddr: %s"
"geoip2.lookup: Missing ip address"
"geoip2.lookup: No data for this path (%s)"
"geoip2.lookup: No entry for this IP address (%s)"

NOTES

This implementation limits the path to a maximum of 9 map keys and/or array indexes.
