node-geoip-middleware

GeoIP middleware for Connect/Express. Can be used with geoip, geoip-static or any service that has a lookup(ip, callback) method.

Install

With npm do

npm install geoip-middleware

Usage

middleware(options)

• options.db GeoIP db instance.
• options.fields Extracted fields from geoip result. Defaults to ['country_code', 'continent_code]'.
• options.cache Cache result (requires session support), defaults to true.
• options.strict When lookup fails, handle it as an error. By default, errors are silently dropped, and the defaultss value is used.
• options.defaults Default values, when lookup fails. Defaults: { country_code: 'US', continent_code: 'NA' }.

Example

var geoip = require('geoip');
var middleware = require('geoip-middleware');
var express = require('express');

var db = new geoip.Country('path/to/db');

var app = express();

app.use(middleware({
  db: db,
  cache: false
}));

app.get('/', function(req, res) {
  res.send('Yo r here: ' + req.country_code);
});

app.listen(3000);
