GeoIP2...MaxMind(3pm)

💖 GeoIP2::Record::MaxMind — the whole vibe 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because this is the GeoIP2::Record::MaxMind manual page (that's the GeoIP2...MaxMind(3pm) one, yes, the title got squished by the terminal, it's fine, it's giving abbreviation energy) 🌸

Version: version 2.006002 ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

okay so this is literally how you use it, copy-paste core:

use 5.008;

use GeoIP2::WebService::Client;

my $client = GeoIP2::WebService::Client->new(
    account_id  => 42,
    license_key => 'abcdef123456',
);

my $insights = $client->insights( ip => '24.24.24.24' );

my $maxmind_rec = $insights->maxmind();
print $maxmind_rec->queries_remaining(), "\n";

like… look at her go 💅

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so this class holds the maxmind record data that comes back when you hit up a web service query. that's it, that's the class 🫶

but here's the plot twist that makes this one special, and you NEED to know it: unlike all the other record classes, the data in this record is tied to your MaxMind account, not to an IP address. no IP, no problem, it's about you babe 💖

and the best part? this record is returned by all the end points. every single one. iconic behavior honestly ⭐

---

✨ METHODS ✨

this class is serving you the following methods, no more, no less:

🎀 $maxmind_rec->queries_remaining()

this one tells you the number of queries remaining for the end point you just queried 🍓

⚠️ but listen, lowkey important: this is an approximation. query counts are only periodically synced across all of MaxMind's servers, so don't come for it if the number's a little off. it's doing its best 💀
