Following plug-in is based on Geo Location By IP Which is based on IP Address Geolocation XML API

[size=4]Installation[/size]

• Database needs to be autoload from CI config.
• Download the tables from ipinfodb.com.
• Import the unzipped SQL file into your database.
• Copy the code and create a file as geo_location_db_pi.php, Place the file into your system/plugins folder.

/*    
Instructions:

Database needs to be autoload from CI config.

Download the 'Complete (City)' IP database SQL from:
    http://www.ipinfodb.com/ip_database.php

Import the data into your MySQL database using the SQL statement and check if 
the table 'ip_group_city' is created 

Load the plugin using:
     $this->load->plugin('geo_location_db');

Once loaded you can get user's geo location details by given IP address:
    $ip = $this->input->ip_address();
    $geo_data = get_geolocation($ip);
    
    echo "Country code : ".$geo_data->country_name."<br>\n";
    echo "Country name : ".$geo_data->city."<br>\n";
    echo "Latitude     : ".$geo_data->latitude."<br>\n";
    echo "Longitude    : ".$geo_data->longitude."<br>\n";
    ...

Or let the plugin detect the ip
    $geo_data = get_geolocation_get_ip();

    echo "Country code : ".$geo_data->country_name."<br>\n";
    echo "Country name : ".$geo_data->city."<br>\n";
    echo "Latitude     : ".$geo_data->latitude."<br>\n";
    echo "Longitude    : ".$geo_data->longitude."<br>\n";
    ...

RETURNED DATA

The get_geolocation() and get_geolocation_get_ip() function returns an associative array.
Use var_dump the check the structure
