// get IP address from command line arguments
$ipAddress = $argv[1] or die("usage: {$argv[0]} <ip_address>\n");

// lookup IP address information
$addrInfo = DBIP\Address::lookup($ipAddress);

var_dump($addrInfo);

Get API key information

require "dbip-client.class.php";

DBIP\APIKey::set("YOUR_API_KEY_GOES_HERE");

// fetch API key information from server
$keyInfo = DBIP\APIKey::info();

var_dump($keyInfo);

Error handling

require "dbip-client.class.php";

DBIP\APIKey::set("YOUR_API_KEY_GOES_HERE");

foreach ([ "1.2.3.4", "1.2.3.999", "5.6.7.8" ] as $ipAddress) {
	try {
		echo DBIP\Address::lookup($ipAddress)->countryCode . "\n";
	} catch (DBIP\ServerError $e) {
		if ($e->getErrorCode() === DBIP\ErrorCode::INVALID_ADDRESS) {
			echo "{$ipAddress} is not a valid IP address\n";
		}
	}
}
