IPData PHP Library

An API client to communicate with Ipdata.co.

Install

composer require ipdata/api-client

The client is built upon PSR standards. We use PSR-18 for HTTP client and PSR-17
for RequestFactory. These needs to be passed to the client's constructor.

Example packages for PSR-17 and PSR-18:

composer require nyholm/psr7 symfony/http-client

use Ipdata\ApiClient\Ipdata;
use Symfony\Component\HttpClient\Psr18Client;
use Nyholm\Psr7\Factory\Psr17Factory;

$httpClient = new Psr18Client();
$psr17Factory = new Psr17Factory();
$ipdata = new Ipdata('<<apiKey>>', $httpClient, $psr17Factory);

How to use

To send a geocode request you simply need to provide the IP address you are interested in.

$data = $ipdata->lookup('69.78.70.144');
echo json_encode($data, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT);

The output will be the response from the API server with one additional status field.

If you are not interested in all the fields in the response, you may query only
the fields you want.

$data = $ipdata->lookup('69.78.70.144', ['longitude', 'latitude', 'country_name']);
echo json_encode($data, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT);

{
    "longitude": -97.822,
    "latitude": 37.751,
    "country_name": "United States",
    "status": 200
}

Bulk request

If you want to look up multiple IPs at the same time you may use the bulkLookup() function.

$data = $ipdata->buildLookup(['1.1.1.1', '69.78.70.144'], ['longitude', 'latitude', 'country_name']);
echo json_encode($data, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT);

{
    "0": {
        "longitude": 143.2104,
        "latitude": -33.494,
        "country_name": "Australia"
    },
    "1": {
        "longitude": -97.822,
        "latitude": 37.751,
        "country_name": "United States"
    },
    "status": 200
}
