patrickadeelino/geolocation

This application uses PHP 8 e Kafka to translate IPs into geographical locations using the IPStack free API.

Application lifecycle:

• A PHP process consumes a Kafka Topic entry
• Incoming messages are sent to IPStack
• A new message is created using the returned IP geolocation data
• The new message is sent to a Kafka Topic output
• The request per client + IP is cached in Redis for 30 minutes.

How to set up

1. Get free API Access Key and put the value in .env variable IPSTACK_ACCESS_KEY
2. Run docker-compose up -d
3. done.

How to test

1. Start consume the output kafka topic running ./bin/consume-output-topic.sh
2. Open a Kafka Producer running ./bin/open-input-producer.sh and send a new message:
   Input message sample:

   {"ip": "2001:1284:f013:2c2c:13d9:135d:aff9:c52d", "clientId": 1}

3. A message with the ip geolocation will appear in the consumer window.
