GeodatExplorer

A cross-platform GUI application for browsing and exploring v2ray geosite and geoip DAT files.

Overview

GeodatExplorer provides a user-friendly interface to inspect the contents of v2ray/xray geodata files (geosite.dat and geoip.dat). These files contain domain and IP routing rules used by proxy tools like v2ray, xray, sing-box, and others.

Instead of manually parsing binary protobuf files or relying on command-line tools, GeodatExplorer lets you:

• Browse all categories in a DAT file
• View entries with type indicators (domain, full, keyword, regexp, CIDR, include)
• Search globally across all categories to find which rules contain a specific domain or IP
• Filter categories and entries in real-time

Features

• Category browser — Lists all categories with filtering
• Entry viewer — Shows entries with color-coded types
• Reverse search — Find which categories contain a specific domain/IP pattern
• Cross-platform — Runs on Linux, Windows, and macOS
