Hi! I got an error when i use "::Location()". Because of my local environnement (Laragon) I got an openSSL issue and file_get_contents return an error

file_get_contents can be replaced by curl. I think curl is more accurate, faster & with CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER to false, i have no more error.

Hi, Thanks for raising this, but I'm a bit adverse to merging this due to the verify peer being off as it wont validate the servers SSL certificate, so could cause security issues.
