how to get country from ip in Laravel

Question

I have Creates custom Analytics Module, Where I can track the Visitor Activity, Here I used the Laravel Package "stevebauman/location" for getting Visitor Location.

The main issue is that, when I statically provide the IP to the Variable, this ip provided me the correct location. on the other hand, When I get IP dynamically. It just provide the IP

$visitor = request()->ip();

How Can I get country Name, Code, Postal Address from the IP in Laravel

$visitor = request()->ip();
    $traffic = PageVisits::where('ip_address', $visitor)->where('property_id', $id)
    ->whereMonth('created_at', Carbon::now()->month)->first();
    if(auth()->check() && auth()->user()->usertype == 'Admin'){
    
    }else{
        if (!$traffic) {

            $traffic = new PageVisits();
            $traffic->ip_address = $visitor;
            $traffic->property_id = $id;
            $position = Location::get('https://'.$visitor);
            $traffic->country = $position->countryName;
            $traffic->agency_id = $property->agency_id ?? '';
            $traffic->save();
        }

Answer 1

您可以创建一个服务，然后可以在您的控制器中使用该服务。

Answer 2

You Can Create Folder With service and but it >>>> I use apiStack

<?php

namespace App\Services;

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Http;

class IpStack
{

    protected $key;

    protected $baseUrl = 'http://api.ipstack.com/';

    public function __construct($key)
    {
        $this->key = $key;
    }

    public function get($ip)
    {
        // http://api.ipstack.com/(ip)?access_key=(key)
        $response = Http::baseUrl($this->baseUrl)
            ->get($ip, [
                'access_key' => $this->key,
            ]);

        return $response->json();
    }
}

for call in controller

{
 $geoip = new IpStack(config('services.ipstack.key'));
            $response = $geoip->get(request()->ip());
}
