PHP + ip2location = PHPFirewall

#php #ip2location #firewall

I wrote a firewall application using ip2location.io lite/API that can be implemented in any project:

https://github.com/oyeaussie/PHPFirewall

I hope it's useful to others as I have integrated this in a few projects on where users has no control over their providers firewall and it works pretty well.

Update:
The PHPFirewall application got awarded 1st prize at the 2024 IP2Location programming contest.
