Yii2 location extension
=======================

[](#yii2-location-extension)

Retrieve a user's location from their IP address using an external web services

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

The preferred way to install this extension is through [composer](http://getcomposer.org/download/).

Either run

```
php composer.phar require ap369/yii2-location dev-master

```

or add

```
"ap369/yii2-location": "dev-master"

```

to the require section of your `composer.json` file.

-----

[](#usage)

Once the extension is installed, use it in your code like this:

```
$position = Location::get('44.85.3.2');

echo $position->latitude;
echo $position->longitude;
```

If you don't provide an IP address, it will default to `Yii::$app->request->userIP`.

Additionally, you can chose what driver will be used to resolve the IP address location, by passing its class as the second parameter.

```
$position =  Location::get('44.85.3.2', FreeGeoIp::class);
```

You can also pass `null` as the address to have it automatically resolved:

```
$position =  Location::get(null,GeoPlugin::class); // position from GeoPluin
```

Currently, the following drivers are supported by this extension:

- IpInfo (default)
