A PHP/Laravel package that retrieves a visitor's geographic location from their IP address using various online and local geolocation services. It provides a simple facade API with support for multiple drivers and test faking.
Use cases
- look up a visitor's country and city from their IP address
- geolocate users in a Laravel app for content localization
- resolve the location of a specific IP address in PHP
- detect user region for compliance or pricing
- fake IP geolocation responses in tests
When to choose
- you have a Laravel or PHP 8.1+ application needing IP-based geolocation
- you want a driver-based abstraction over multiple geolocation services (online and local like MaxMind)
- you need easy test faking of geolocation results
When to avoid
- you need precise GPS-level location rather than IP-based approximation
- you're not using PHP or Laravel
- you need client-side browser geolocation
