### Basic Usage

```php
$geo = new GeoLookup('.....');
$location = $geo->getLocation('github.com');
print_r($location);
```

### Example Usage

> Note: See [Location.php](https://github.com/nathan-fiscaletti/ipstackgeo-php/blob/v1.4/src/IPStack/Location.php) for a list of available properties on the Location object.
> Note: See [IPStack: Response Objects](https://ipstack.com/documentation#objects) for a list of available properties in a response object.
#### Create the GeoLookup object

```php
use IPStack\PHP\GeoLookup;

$geoLookup = new GeoLookup(
'acecac3893c90871c3', // API Key
false, // Use HTTPS (IPStack Basic plan and up only, defaults to false)
10 // Timeout in seconds (defaults to 10 seconds)
);
// Create the GeoLookup object using your API key.
$geoLookup = new GeoLookup('acecac3893c90871c3');
```

#### Lookup IPs locations in bulk
#### Look up a Clients location

You can also look up the location for multiple IP addresses at once.

> Note: This requires the PROFESSIONAL teir API key or higher and is limitted to 50 IPs at a time.
```php
$location = $geoLookup->getClientLocation();
print_r($location);
```

#### Look up own location
```php
$lookup = ['google.com', 'github.com', '1.1.1.1'];
$locations = $geoLookup->getLocations(...$lookup);
print_r($locations);
$location = $geoLookup->getOwnLocation();
print_r($location);
```

#### Other Features

There are also a few other useful features built into this library and the IPStack API.

1. Bulk Location Lookup

The ipstack API also offers the ability to request data for multiple IPv4 or IPv6 addresses at the same time. This requires the PROFESSIONAL teir API key or higher and is limitted to 50 IPs at a time.
> See: [https://ipstack.com/documentation#bulk](https://ipstack.com/documentation#bulk)
```php
$lookup = ['google.com', 'github.com', '1.1.1.1'];
$locations = $geoLookup->getLocations(...$lookup);
print_r($locations);
```

2. Requesting the hostname for an IP address.

By default, the ipstack API does not return information about the hostname the given IP address resolves to. In order to include the hostname use the following.
> See: [https://ipstack.com/documentation#hostname](https://ipstack.com/documentation#hostname)
```php
$location = $geoLookup->setFindHostname(true)->getLocation('1.1.1.1');
echo $location['hostname'];
```

```
one.one.one.one
```

3. Assessing Security

Customers subscribed to the Professional Plus Plan may access the ipstack API's Security Module, which can be used to assess risks and threats originating from certain IP addresses before any harm can be done to a website or web application.
> See: [https://ipstack.com/documentation#security](https://ipstack.com/documentation#security)
```php
$location = $geoLookup->assessSecurity(true)->getLocation('github.com');
```

4. Set the language for a response

The ipstack API is capable of delivering its result set in different languages. To request data in a language other than English (default) use following with one of the supported language codes.
> See: [https://ipstack.com/documentation#language](https://ipstack.com/documentation#language)
[Supported Langauges](https://ipstack.com/documentation#language)

```php
$location = $geoLookup->setLanguage('en')->getLocation('github.com');
```

5. Configuring your request

```php
/// Use HTTPS
/// This requires IPStack Basic plan or higher.
$location = $geoLookup->useHttps(true)->getLocation('github.com');

/// Configure the timeout for requests
$location = $geoLookup->setTimeout(15)->getLocation('github.com');
```
