This gem provides binding of libmaxminddb.
This binding does not traverse all elements in lookup result by default. So you can get the element you want fast such as city name, country name or etc.
- Ruby 2.7 or later
Need ruby.h to build this extension, so you must install it before build this extension.
Debian GNU Linux / Ubuntu:
$ sudo apt install -y build-essential automake autoconf libtool
CentOS:
$ sudo yum groupinstall -y "Development Tools"
NOTE: If you want to use libmaxminddb provided as a deb/rpm package, you can install libmaxminddb-dev or libmaxminddb-devel at your own risk, and pass --enable-system-libraries at gem install time.
