# Laravel Geolocation Request

The Laravel Geolocation Request package provides an easy

way to geolocate requests to their country of origin, simply

by calling a `$request->country()` method.

## Installation

To install the Laravel Geolocation Request package, just

run the following Composer command.

```bash

composer require divineomega/laravel-geolocation-request

``` 

## Usage

To use geolocation enabled requests within your Laravel controller 

methods, you can replace the `use Illuminate\Http\Request` line 

at the top of your controllers, as shown in the usage example below.

Once done, you can simple call the `$request->country()` method to 

perform geolocation and return the origin country of the active 

request based on its IP address. The country is returned as an object 

containing many properties, such as the country name and ISO codes.

```php

country();

        

        $user = new \App\User();

        $user->name = $request->name;

        $user->countryName = $country->name;

        $user->countryCode = $country->isoCodeAlpha3;

        

        $user->save();

        

        // ...

    }

}

```

If you are using custom request objects, you can

change them to extend the provided `GeolocationRequest` class.

If you unable to extend your custom request object, or 

simply do not wish to, you can add geolocation functionality

by using the provided `GeolocatableRequest` trait.
