Original multi database support

Prerequisites

Note

  • [maxmind/libmaxminddb][]

  • [openresty][]

  • [GeoLite2 Free Downloadable Databases][linkGeolite2FreeDownloadableDatabases]

  • [maxmind/geoipupdate][]

New Features

  • Multiple Database Support: Initialize and use multiple MaxMind databases simultaneously

  • Profile Selection: Choose which database to query using profile names

  • Automatic Fallback: Uses first available database if no profile specified

Bug fixed

API Reference

Functions:

  • geo.init(profiles): Initialize databases with profile names and file paths

  • geo.lookup(ip, lookup_path, profile): Lookup IP address, optionally specify profile

Installation

    # opm (manual install libmaxminddb and download GeoLite2-City.mmdb)
    # openresty/openresty:alpine and apache/apisix:2.13.0-alpine docker image need to install perl libmaxminddb
    # e.g. apk --no-cache add perl libmaxminddb && ln -s /usr/lib/libmaxminddb.so.0  /usr/lib/libmaxminddb.so
    opm get anjia0532/lua-resty-maxminddb
    
    # luarocks (manual download GeoLite2-City.mmdb)
    # openresty/openresty:alpine-fat docker image
    luarocks install lua-resty-maxminddb
    
    # openresty/openresty:alpine docker image need to install luarocks (ref https://github.com/openresty/docker-openresty/blob/master/alpine/Dockerfile.fat)
    
    # special apache/apisix:2.xx.0-alpine luarocks install lua-resty-maxminddb UNZIP=/usr/bin/unzip
    # e.g. apk --no-cache add perl alpine-sdk && luarocks install lua-resty-maxminddb UNZIP=/usr/bin/unzip

Synopsis

Basic Usage (Single Database)

    local geo = require 'resty.maxminddb'
    if not geo.initted() then
        geo.init("/path/to/GeoLite2-City.mmdb")
    end
    local res, err = geo.lookup("8.8.8.8")

Multiple Database Support

    local geo = require 'resty.maxminddb'
    if not geo.initted() then
        geo.init({
            city = "/path/to/GeoLite2-City.mmdb",
            country = "/path/to/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb",
            asn = "/path/to/GeoLite2-ASN.mmdb"
        })
    end
    
    -- Lookup using default profile (first one)
    local res, err = geo.lookup("8.8.8.8")
    
    -- Or specify a specific profile
    local city_data, err = geo.lookup("8.8.8.8", nil, "city")
    local country_data, err = geo.lookup("8.8.8.8", nil, "country")
    local asn_data, err = geo.lookup("8.8.8.8", nil, "asn")
