Very often, you want to know the location of your web site visitor's, such as country, region, and other location information. You can do so via passing the IP address of the user to this free site: http://www.geoplugin.net/json.gp. It will then return you a JSON string containing detailed location information pertaining to the specified IP address.To use this site in PHP, you can create a function, like the following:
function getLocationUsingIP($ip) {
$result = @json_decode(file_get_contents(
"http://www.geoplugin.net/json.gp?ip=" . $ip));
if($result && $result->geoplugin_countryName != null)
{
$location['region'] = $result->geoplugin_region;
$location['city'] = $result->geoplugin_city;
$location['country'] = $result->geoplugin_countryCode;
$location['latitute'] = $result->geoplugin_latitude;
$location['longitude'] = $result->geoplugin_longitude;
}
return $location;
}
To call it, call the function by passing the IP address of the user (obtainable via $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR]):
$location = getLocationUsingIP($_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR]);
echo $location['region'] . "<br/>";
echo $location['city'] . "<br/>";
echo $location['country'] . "<br/>";
echo $location['latitute'] . "<br/>";
echo $location['longitude'] . "<br/>";
