So I'm trying to run the geoip command from a script. Here's the code:

my @output = qx(geoip -s 209.197.123.153);
print Dumper(\@output);
print $output[5];
#Country   : US  United States

The qx command seems to do what I'm trying to accomplish. Am I doing it correctly? I'm getting the information I need, which is the country info.

Someone posted the code below the other day. I didn't get it to work:

use JSON::PP qw/decode_json/;
use IPC::Run3::Shell::CLIWrapper;

my $geoip = IPC::Run3::Shell::CLIWrapper->new( { fail_on_stderr=>1, st
+dout_filter => sub {$_=decode_json($_)} }, qw/ geoip --json --DB=dbi:
+SQLite:dbname=geoip / );
my $data = $geoip->('115.66.224.70');
