NAME

       mmdblookup - a utility to look up an IP address in a MaxMind DB file

SYNOPSIS

       mmdblookup --file [FILE PATH] --ip [IP ADDRESS] [DATA PATH]

DESCRIPTION

       mmdblookup looks up an IP address in the specified MaxMind DB file.  The record for the IP
       address is displayed in a JSON-like structure with type annotations.

       If an IP's data entry resolves to a map or array, you can provide a lookup  path  to  only
       show part of that data.

       For example, given a JSON structure like this:

           {
               "names": {
                   "en": "Germany",
                   "de": "Deutschland"
               },
               "cities": [ "Berlin", "Frankfurt" ]
           }

       You could look up just the English name by calling mmdblookup with a lookup path of:

           mmdblookup --file ... --ip ... names en

       Or you could look up the second city in the list with:

           mmdblookup --file ... --ip ... cities 1

       Array numbering begins with zero (0).

       If  you  do  not  provide  a path to lookup, all of the information for a given IP will be
       shown.
