FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Informations about the package ipinfo

IP User Location

A basic PHP wrapper for adding IP based user location detection into your application using the IP Info DB API.

Installation

Add pta/ipinfo as a requirement to composer.json:

Update your packages with composer update or install with composer install.

You can also add the package using composer require pta/ipinfo and later specifying the version you want.

Methods

Get city based information

You can use ->getCity($ip) to retrieve city level information about an IP address.

Example json response:

Get country based information

You can use ->getCountry($ip) to retrieve country level information about an IP address. Obviously this is faster than retrieving city level information.

Example json response:

Validate an IP address

You can use ->validIP($ip) to see if the specified IP Address is valid.

Under the hood this uses filter_var($ip, FILTER_VALIDATE_IP), I assume this is pretty solid. If you have any suggestions for a better way of doing this send a pull request or drop me an email.

Get the user's IP address

You can use ->getIpAddress() to retrieve the users IP address.

You shouldn't be trusting a user based this data, HTTP headers can be faked, trivially.

API keys & query limits

You can get a (free) API key here, obviously this should be kept private.

While there are no strict query limits if you send more than 2 requests per second they will be queued. You will still always get a response, but it will be slowed to around 1 /second.

I would strongly suggest using some form of cache. Cookies (mmm cookies) are probably the easiest way to deal with this:
