IP2Location Laravel extension is able to query the IP address information from either BIN database or web service. This section will explain how to use this extension to query from BIN database and web service.

BIN DATABASE

  1. Download IP2Location BIN database
  2. To use IP2Location databases, create a folder named as ip2location in the database directory.
  3. Unzip and copy the BIN file into database/ip2location/ folder.
  4. Rename the BIN file to IP2LOCATION.BIN.
  5. Create a TestController in Laravel using the below command line
php artisan make:controller TestController
  1. Open the app/Http/Controllers/TestController.php in any text editor.
  2. To use IP2Location databases, add the below lines into the controller file.
<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use IP2LocationLaravel;			//use IP2LocationLaravel class

class TestController extends Controller
{
	//Create a lookup function for display
	public function lookup(){

		//Try query the geolocation information of 8.8.8.8 IP address
		$records = IP2LocationLaravel::get('8.8.8.8', 'bin');

		echo 'IP Number             : ' . $records['ipNumber'] . "<br>";
		echo 'IP Version            : ' . $records['ipVersion'] . "<br>";

DEPENDENCIES

This library requires either IP2Location BIN data file or IP2Location API key to function. You may download the BIN data file at

For IP2Location API key, you can sign up IP2Location Web Service to get one free API key.

IPv4 BIN vs IPv6 BIN

Use the IPv4 BIN file if you just need to query IPv4 addresses. Use the IPv6 BIN file if you need to query BOTH IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
