The aim of this guide is to demonstrate how to import IP2Location data (DB26 IPv6) in CSV form into Oracle Database and then query the data in a PHP web page.

Download commercial version at https://ip2location.com/download?code=DB26IPV6

Extract out the IPV6-COUNTRY-REGION-CITY-LATITUDE-LONGITUDE-ZIPCODE-TIMEZONE-ISP-DOMAIN-NETSPEED-AREACODE-WEATHER-MOBILE-ELEVATION-USAGETYPE-ADDRESSTYPE-CATEGORY-DISTRICT-ASN.CSV file from the downloaded zipped file.

Important Note

We will not cover installation of Oracle or PHP in this guide. We will assume you have already setup Oracle and PHP on the localhost and are using PHP via Apache (also on the localhost). For this example, we are using a Windows 10 machine.

Importing the CSV data into Oracle

Run the following SQL in Oracle to create the table and import the data from the CSV file:

CREATE TABLE ip2location_db26_ipv6(
  ip_from CHAR(39),
  ip_to CHAR(39),
  country_code CHAR(2),
  country_name VARCHAR2(64),

Querying the data in PHP

Now, create a PHP file called test.php in your website.

Paste the following PHP code into it and then run it in the browser:

<?php
$ip = '2001:1388:b4b:342e:ad92:a9e7:bc5b:9340';

function ip62long($ipv6) {
  return (string) gmp_import(inet_pton($ipv6));
}

function queryIP2Location($myip) {
  $user = 'sys';
  $pass = '12345';
  $host = 'localhost';
  $port = 1521;
  $service = 'XE';
  $tns = '
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ' . $host . ')(PORT = ' . $port . '))
    )
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVICE_NAME = ' . $service . ')
    )
  )';
  
  if ($conn = oci_connect($user, $pass, $tns, 'AL32UTF8', OCI_SYSDBA)) {
    if (filter_var($myip, FILTER_VALIDATE_IP, FILTER_FLAG_IPV4)) {
      $myip = '::FFFF:' . $myip;
    }
    if (filter_var($myip, FILTER_VALIDATE_IP, FILTER_FLAG_IPV6)) {
      $ipnum = ip62long($myip);
    }
    
    // pad ipnum to 39 digits with zeroes in front so we can do string comparison
    $ipnum = str_pad($ipnum, 39, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT);
    
    $stid = oci_parse($conn, 'SELECT * FROM ip2location_db26_ipv6 WHERE :ip_num <= ip_to ORDER BY ip_to FETCH FIRST 1 ROWS ONLY');
    oci_bind_by_name($stid, ':ip_num', $ipnum);
    
    oci_execute($stid);
    $num = oci_fetch_all($stid, $res, 0, -1, OCI_FETCHSTATEMENT_BY_ROW);
    
    oci_close($conn);
    
    if ($num > 0) {
      return $res[0];
    }
    else {
      die('No record found.' . "<br>\n");
    }
  }
  else {
    $err = oci_error();
    die('Error: ' . $err['message'] . "<br>\n");
  }
}

$myresult = queryIP2Location($ip);
