Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install redis_geoip

Usage

Working with GeoIP2 Country database:

• load:

require "redis"
require "geoip_redis/country_loader"

redis = Redis.new(url: "redis://localhost:6379/4")
loader = GeoipRedis::CountryLoader.new(redis)

loader.load_blocks("path/to/blocks_ipv4.csv")
loader.load_locations("path/to/locations.csv")

• resolve country by ip:

require "redis"
require "geoip_redis/resolver"

redis = Redis.new(url: "redis://localhost:6379/4")
resolver = GeoipRedis::Resolver.new(redis)

country = resolver.resolve("123.234.23.12")

Working with GeoIP2 City database:

• load:

require "redis"
require "geoip_redis/city_loader"

redis = Redis.new(url: "redis://localhost:6379/5")
loader = GeoipRedis::CityLoader.new(redis)

loader.load_blocks("path/to/blocks_ipv4.csv")
loader.load_locations("path/to/locations.csv")

• resolve city by ip:

require "redis"
require "geoip_redis/resolver"
