Implement geolocation #242

Open eliasyishak opened 7 months ago

eliasyishak commented 7 months ago

GA4 does not behave like GA3, we should have a mechanism for resolving geolocation data within the package if GA4 is unable to support this feature

http://ip-api.com/json seems to be a promising but we may not be permitted to use it... from the home page, "Free for non-commercial use"

eliasyishak commented 7 months ago

https://ipregistry.co/ another alternative but this has a cost... and with us having this package be open-source, we would have to expose our API key publicly.. likely not a good option

eliasyishak commented 7 months ago

https://freeipapi.com/ this alternative seems to be free and doesn't require an API key. Website also says it is permitted for commercial use

Simply running curl https://freeipapi.com/api/json/8.8.8.8 returns json for that IP endpoint
