Traits and Contracts

You can use GeoData traits when you need to define a relation to countries, regions and/or cities.

See the following example:

<?php

namespace App\Models;

// [...]
use Gerardojbaez\GeoData\Contracts\HasCountryContract;
use Gerardojbaez\GeoData\Contracts\HasRegionContract;
use Gerardojbaez\GeoData\Contracts\HasCityContract;
use Gerardojbaez\GeoData\Traits\HasCountry;
use Gerardojbaez\GeoData\Traits\HasRegion;
use Gerardojbaez\GeoData\Traits\HasCity;

class User extends Model implements HasCountryContract, HasRegionContract, HasCityContract
{
	use HasCountry, HasRegion, HasCity;

	/**
     * The attributes that are mass assignable.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $fillable = [
        'country_code',
        'region_id',
        'city_id',
        ...
    ];

Usage

Installing Countries

In addition to install countries via command line using seeders, you can also install countries through the CountryInstaller class. This will help you create a "web interface" that will give your customers or users the ability to install countries as needed. The installer will check if the country has been already installed and in that case will throw Gerardojbaez\Geodata\Exceptions\CountryAlreadyInstalledException.

The installation include:

  • The country
  • Country Regions
  • Country Cities

It's as simple as:

<?php

use Gerardojbaez\Geodata\CountryInstaller;

// Install United States.
$installer = new CountryInstaller('United States');
$installer->install();

// Install Puerto Rico.
$installer = new CountryInstaller('Puerto Rico');
$installer->install();

// Install Spain
$installer = new CountryInstaller('Spain');
$installer->install();

Models

This package comes with Gerardojbaez\GeoData\Models\Country, Gerardojbaez\GeoData\Models\Region and Gerardojbaez\GeoData\Models\City models.

Take a look at each model for more details.

Controllers

If you want to provide countries, regions and/or cities data to your frontend you may want to use Gerardojbaez\GeoData\Controllers\CountriesController, Gerardojbaez\GeoData\Controllers\RegionsController and Gerardojbaez\GeoData\Controllers\CitiesController controllers.

Controllers returns a json reponse containing (if any) the requested data.

Routes

This is an example. You can structure these routes as you want.

<?php

// Show countries list.
Route::get('api/geo/countries', [
	'uses' => '\Gerardojbaez\GeoData\Controllers\CountriesController@countries',
	'as' => 'geodata.countries'
]);

// Show regions list.
Route::get('api/geo/{country}/regions', [
	'uses' => '\Gerardojbaez\GeoData\Controllers\RegionsController@regions',
	'as' => 'geodata.regions'
]);

// Show cities list.
Route::get('api/geo/{country}/{region}/cities', [
	'uses' => '\Gerardojbaez\GeoData\Controllers\CitiesController@cities',
	'as' => 'geodata.cities'
]);
