Grails GeoIp2 plugin based on MaxMind library

Allows you to get location info based on a request, such as country, city, geographical coordinates.

Similar to the Grails GeoIP plugin but uses the GeoLite2 database and the GeoIP2 Java API.

Add the following to your BuildConfig.groovy:

plugins {
	compile ':geoip2:1.0'
}

On installation, this plugin downloads the GeoLite2 database into your app's web-app folder at web-app\data\maxmind and appends a config to your app's Config.groovy.

To update your database, reinstall the plugin by deleting your target folder and running grails refresh-dependencies.

import grails.plugins.geoip2.Geoip2Service

class MyController {
	Geoip2Service geoip2Service	

	def getCountryCode() {
		render geoip2Service.getCountryCode(request)
	}
}
