There are at least 2 web services available to all countries (Brazil currently has 6), if ZipCode cannot access one or doesn't find a zip on it, it automatically falls back to the others. If you know of any other web services available that could be better than those, please create an issue or PR with it. Result ------ [](#result) This is an example of what you get when you search a Zip with it: ``` { country_id:"CH", country_name:"Switzerland", zip_code:"1005", web_service:"Geonames", timer:"0.7808", service_query_url:"http://api.geonames.org/postalCodeSearch?country=CH&postalcode=1005&username=demo", addresses:[ { postal_code:"1005", state_name:"Canton de Vaud", state_id:"VD", city:"Lausanne", latitude:"46.51985", longitude:"6.64252", department:"District de Lausanne", department_id:"2225", district:"Lausanne" } ], result_raw:{ totalResultsCount:"1", code:{ postalcode:"1005", name:"Lausanne", countryCode:"CH", lat:"46.51985", lng:"6.64252", adminCode1:"VD", adminName1:"Canton de Vaud", adminCode2:"2225", adminName2:"District de Lausanne", adminCode3:"5586", adminName3:"Lausanne" } }, success:true } ``` ZipCode returns a `PragmaRX\ZipCode\Support\Result` object and all properties can be accessed: - As array - As string, which will make it return a JSON - Using camel cased getters: ``` $result->getWebService(); $result->getCountryName(); ``` Laravel Form Example -------------------- [](#laravel-form-example) This is an unconventionally hacked Laravel router which renders a form to query zips on a selected country: ``` Route::any('zipcode', function() { echo Form::open(array('url' => 'zipcode')) . Form::select('country', ZipCode::getAvailableCountries(), Input::get('country')) . Form::text('zipcode', Input::get('zipcode')) . Form::submit('go!') . Form::close(); if (Input::get('country')) { ZipCode::setCountry(Input::get('country')); ZipCode::setQueryParameter('geonames_username', 'demo'); echo ''; var_dump(ZipCode::find(Input::get('zipcode'))->toArray()); echo ''; } }); ``` Available countries ------------------- [](#available-countries) There are web services tested for the following countries: - Argentine (AR) - Australia (AU) - Brazil (BR) - Canada (CA) - Czech Republic (CZ) - France (FR) - Germany (DE) - Great Britain (GB) - India (IN) - Italy (IT) - Japan (JP) - Lithuania (LT) - Mexico (MX) - Pakistan (PK) - Poland (PL) - Portugal (PT) - Russia (RU) - South Africa (ZA) - Spain (ES) - Switzerland (CH) - Turkey (TR) - United States (US) If you need a different one, please ask or just send a pull request with it. Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - Laravel 4.1+ or 5+ - PHP 5.4+ Installing ---------- [](#installing) Install it using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/doc/01-basic-usage.md): ``` composer require "pragmarx/zipcode" ``` Edit your app/config/app.php and add the Service Provider ``` 'PragmaRX\ZipCode\Vendor\Laravel\ServiceProvider', ``` And the Facade ``` 'ZipCode' => 'PragmaRX\ZipCode\Vendor\Laravel\Facade', ``` Using It -------- [](#using-it) #### Instantiate it directly [](#instantiate-it-directly) ``` use PragmaRX\ZipCode\ZipCode; $zipcode = new ZipCode(); return $zipcode->generateSecretKey() ``` #### In Laravel you can use the IoC Container and the contract [](#in-laravel-you-can-use-the-ioc-container-and-the-contract) ``` $zipcode = app()->make('PragmaRX\ZipCode\Contracts\ZipCode'); return $zipcode->find('20250-030') ``` #### Or Method Injection, in Laravel 5 [](#or-method-injection-in-laravel-5) ``` use PragmaRX\ZipCode\Contracts\ZipCode; class WelcomeController extends Controller { public function generateKey(ZipCode $zipcode) { return $zipcode->find('20250-030'); } } ``` About Geonames -------------- [](#about-geonames) This is a really nice service and you should use it as your first option, but for it to be free (for 30,000 credits/day) you have to [create an user account](http://www.geonames.org/login) **and** [enable the free webservices](http://www.geonames.org/manageaccount). And configure ZipCode to use your username: ``` ZipCode::setCountry('GB'); ZipCode::setQueryParameter('geonames_username', 'yourusername'); ZipCode::find('L23YL'); ``` And you can also use config.php to set it: ``` return array( ... 'query_parameters' => array( 'geonames_username' => 'demo', ) ); ``` Author ------ [](#author) [Antonio Carlos Ribeiro](http://twitter.com/iantonioribeiro) License ------- [](#license) ZipCode is licensed under the BSD 3-Clause License - see the `LICENSE` file for details Contributing ------------ [](#contributing) Pull requests and issues are more than welcome. ### Health Score 30 — LowBetter than 64% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity9 Limited adoption so far Community10 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity68 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 96.5% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
