Methods

Below are the methods supported in this class.

BIN Database Class

Function Name	Description
Constructor	Expect 2 input parameters: Full path of IP2Proxy BIN data file. File Open Mode SHARED_MEMORY MEMORY_CACHE FILE_IO For SHARED_MEMORY and MEMORY_CACHE, it will require your server to have sufficient memory to hold the BIN data, otherwise it will raise the errors during the object initialization.

Usage

BIN Database

Open and read IP2Proxy binary database. There are 3 modes:

\IP2Proxy\Database::FILE_IO - File I/O reading. Slower look, but low resource consuming.
\IP2Proxy\Database::MEMORY_CACHE - Caches database into memory for faster lookup. Required high memory.
\IP2Proxy\Database::SHARED_MEMORY - Stores whole IP2Proxy database into system memory. Lookup is possible across all applications within the system. Extremely resources consuming. Do not use this mode if your system do not have enough memory.

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

$db = new \IP2Proxy\Database('vendor/ip2location/ip2proxy-php/data/PX11.SAMPLE.BIN', \IP2PROXY\Database::FILE_IO);

To start lookup result from database, use the following codes:

$records = $db->lookup('1.0.0.8', \IP2PROXY\Database::ALL);

Results are returned in array.

echo '<p><strong>IP Address: </strong>' . $records['ipAddress'] . '</p>';
echo '<p><strong>IP Number: </strong>' . $records['ipNumber'] . '</p>';
echo '<p><strong>IP Version: </strong>' . $records['ipVersion'] . '</p>';
echo '<p><strong>Country Code: </strong>' . $records['countryCode'] . '</p>';
echo '<p><strong>Country: </strong>' . $records['countryName'] . '</p>';
echo '<p><strong>State: </strong>' . $records['regionName'] . '</p>';
echo '<p><strong>City: </strong>' . $records['cityName'] . '</p>';

/*
  Type of proxy: VPN, TOR, DCH, PUB, WEB, RES (RES available in PX11 only)
*/
echo '<p><strong>Proxy Type: </strong>' . $records['proxyType'] . '</p>';

/*
  Returns -1 on errors
  Returns 0 is not proxy
  Return 1 if proxy
  Return 2 if it's data center IP
*/
echo '<p><strong>Is Proxy: </strong>' . $records['isProxy'] . '</p>';
echo '<p><strong>ISP: </strong>' . $records['isp'] . '</p>';
echo '<p><strong>Domain: </strong>' . $records['domain'] . '</p>';
echo '<p><strong>Usage Type: </strong>' . $records['usageType'] . '</p>';
echo '<p><strong>ASN: </strong>' . $records['asn'] . '</p>';
echo '<p><strong>AS: </strong>' . $records['as'] . '</p>';
echo '<p><strong>Last Seen: </strong>' . $records['lastSeen'] . '</p>';
echo '<p><strong>Threat: </strong>' . $records['threat'] . '</p>';
echo '<p><strong>Provider: </strong>' . $records['provider'] . '</p>';

Web Service API

To lookup by Web service, you will need to sign up for IP2Proxy Web Service to get a API key.

Start your lookup by following codes:

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

// Lookup by Web API
$ws = new \IP2Proxy\WebService('YOUR_API_KEY',  'PX11', false);

$results = $ws->lookup('1.0.241.135');

if ($results !== false) {
    echo '<p><strong>Country Code: </strong>' . $results['countryCode'] . '</p>';
    echo '<p><strong>Country Name: </strong>' . $results['countryName'] . '</p>';
    echo '<p><strong>Region: </strong>' . $results['regionName'] . '</p>';
    echo '<p><strong>City: </strong>' . $results['cityName'] . '</p>';
    echo '<p><strong>ISP: </strong>' . $results['isp'] . '</p>';
    echo '<p><strong>Domain: </strong>' . $results['domain'] . '</p>';
    echo '<p><strong>Usage Type: </strong>' . $results['usageType'] . '</p>';
    echo '<p><strong>ASN: </strong>' . $results['asn'] . '</p>';
    echo '<p><strong>AS: </strong>' . $results['as'] . '</p>';
    echo '<p><strong>Last Seen: </strong>' . $results['lastSeen'] . ' Day(s)</p>';
    echo '<p><strong>Proxy Type: </strong>' . $results['proxyType'] . '</p>';
    echo '<p><strong>Threat: </strong>' . $results['threat'] . '</p>';
    echo '<p><strong>Provider: </strong>' . $results['provider'] . '</p>';
    echo '<p><strong>Is Proxy: </strong>' . $results['isProxy'] . '</p>';
}

Reference

Proxy Type

Type	Description	Anonymity
VPN	Anonymizing VPN services. These services offer users a publicly accessible VPN for the purpose of hiding their IP address.	High
TOR	Tor Exit Nodes. The Tor Project is an open network used by those who wish to maintain anonymity.	High
DCH	Hosting Provider, Data Center or Content Delivery Network. Since hosting providers and data centers can serve to provide anonymity, the Anonymous IP database flags IP addresses associated with them.	Low
PUB	Public Proxies. These are services which make connection requests on a user's behalf. Proxy server software can be configured by the administrator to listen on some specified port. These differ from VPNs in that the proxies usually have limited functions compare to VPNs.	High
WEB	Web Proxies. These are web services which make web requests on a user's behalf. These differ from VPNs or Public Proxies in that they are simple web-based proxies rather than operating at the IP address and other ports level.	High
SES	Search Engine Robots. These are services which perform crawling or scraping to a website, such as, the search engine spider or bots engine.	Low
RES	Residential proxies. These services offer users proxy connections through residential ISP with or without consents of peers to share their idle resources. Only available with PX11	Medium
