There is source codes written in PHP and Python(for Django). Other languages and codes coming soon.

PHP and fsockopen

// Your domain name here
$site_name = "www.your-site-name.com";

function getUserCountry() {
    $fp = fsockopen("api.wipmania.com", 80, $errno, $errstr, 5);
    if (!$fp) {
        // API is currently down, return as "Unknown" :(
        return "XX";
    } else {
        $out = "GET /".$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."?".$site_name." HTTP/1.1\r\n";
        $out .= "Host: api.wipmania.com\r\n";
        $out .= "Typ: php\r\n";
        $out .= "Ver: 1.0\r\n";
        $out .= "Connection: Close\r\n\r\n";
        fwrite($fp, $out);
        while (!feof($fp)) {
            $country = fgets($fp, 3);
        }
        fclose($fp);
        return $country;
    }
}

PHP and curl

Other alternative (Thanks to www.anieto2k.com)

// Your domain name here
$site_name = "www.your-site-name.com";

function getUserCountry() {
    $url = 'http://api.wipmania.com/'.$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'].'?'.$site_name;
    $ch = curl_init();
    $headers = "Typ: phpcurl\r\n";
    $headers .= "Ver: 1.0\r\n";
    $headers .= "Connection: Close\r\n\r\n";
    $timeout = 5;
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array($headers));
    $content = curl_exec($ch);
    curl_close($ch);
    return $content;
}

For Django framework (python)

In your views:

from worldip import getUserCountry
remote_addr = request.META.get('REMOTE_ADDR',"127.0.0.1")
country = getUserCountry(remote_addr)

Add in settings.py your URL as SITE_URL, like

SITE_URL = "http://www.google.com"

Small function getUserCountry in worldip.py, you can download it here

#!/usr/bin/env python

from urllib2 import urlopen, Request
import re, socket
from django.conf import settings

domain_re = re.compile('^(http|https):\/\/?([^\/]+)')
domain = domain_re.match(settings.SITE_URL).group(2)

def getUserCountry(ip):
    url = "http://api.wipmania.com/" + ip + "?" + domain
    socket.setdefaulttimeout(5)
    headers = {'Typ':'django','Ver':'1.0','Connection':'Close'}
    try:
        req = Request(url, None, headers)
        urlfile = urlopen(req)
        land = urlfile.read()
        urlfile.close()
        return land[:2]
    except Exception:
        return "XX"

If you use our database or API, we will be very happy, if you include a link back to WIPmania on your website.
