USAGE

In this tutorial, we will show you on how to create a TestsController to display the IP information.

1. Create a TestsController in CakePHP 4 using the below command line

php bin/cake bake controller Tests

2. Create an empty index.php file in cakephp/templates/Tests folder.
3. Open the cakephp/src/Controller/TestsController.php in any text editor.
4. Remove the contents in TestsController.php and add the below lines into the controller file.

<?php
namespace App\Controller;

use App\Controller\AppController;
use IP2ProxyCakePHP\Controller\IP2ProxyCoresController;

// (required) Define IP2Location.io API key.
define('IP2LOCATION_IO_API_KEY', 'your_api_key');

// (optional) Define Translation information. Refer to https://www.ip2location.io/ip2location-documentation for available languages.
define('IP2LOCATION_IO_LANGUAGE', 'en');

/**
 * Tests Controller
 */
class TestsController extends AppController
{

    /**
     * Index method
     *
     * @return \Cake\Http\Response|void
     */
    public function index()
    {
        $IP2Proxy = new IP2ProxyCoresController();

        $record = $IP2Proxy->get('1.0.241.135');
        echo 'Result from BIN Database:<br>';
        echo '<p><strong>IP Address: </strong>' . $record['ipAddress'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>IP Number: </strong>' . $record['ipNumber'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>IP Version: </strong>' . $record['ipVersion'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>Country Code: </strong>' . $record['countryCode'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>Country: </strong>' . $record['countryName'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>State: </strong>' . $record['regionName'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>City: </strong>' . $record['cityName'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>Proxy Type: </strong>' . $record['proxyType'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>Is Proxy: </strong>' . $record['isProxy'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>ISP: </strong>' . $record['isp'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>Domain: </strong>' . $record['domain'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>Usage Type: </strong>' . $record['usageType'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>ASN: </strong>' . $record['asn'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>AS: </strong>' . $record['as'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>Last Seen: </strong>' . $record['lastSeen'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>Threat: </strong>' . $record['threat'] . '</p>';
        echo '<p><strong>Provider: </strong>' . $record['provider'] . '</p>';

        $record = $IP2Proxy->getWebService('1.0.241.135');
        echo 'Result from Web service:<br>';
        echo '<pre>';
        print_r ($record);
        echo '</pre>';
    }

}

5. Enter the URL /Tests and run. You should see the information of 1.0.241.135 IP address.
