Laravel Location

Location Management for Laravel. Structured. Scalable.

Laravel Location helps you model and manage geographic data in a clean, consistent way—from Countries and Provinces to Cities, Districts, Locations, Geo Areas and Addresses. It is designed to be used as a reusable package in real-world Laravel applications where location data needs to be normalized and shared across multiple models.

Why Laravel Location?

A clean hierarchy: Country → Province → City → District

Keep your geographical data normalized and queryable with a clear relational hierarchy. This makes reporting, filtering, and validation much easier across your application.

Reusable Locations, Geo Areas and Addresses

• Locations are stored as unique records (country/province/city/district combination).
• Geo Areas can reference multiple locations (non-duplicated).
• Addresses can be attached to any model (polymorphic) and are stored with a location relation.

Service-first API + Facades

Each entity is managed through a dedicated service and convenient Facades:

• Country, Province, City, District
• Location, GeoArea, Address

This keeps controllers thin and makes the package easy to integrate and test.

Quick Start

Install via Composer:

composer require jobmetric/laravel-location

Run migrations:

php artisan migrate

Optionally publish config/translations (if you need to override defaults):

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="JobMetric\\Location\\LocationServiceProvider"

Usage (Examples)

Store a country using the Facade:

use JobMetric\Location\Facades\Country;

$response = Country::store([
    'name' => 'Iran',
    'flag' => 'iran.svg',
    'mobile_prefix' => 98,
    'validation' => [
        '/^9\\d{9}$/',
    ],
    'address_on_letter' => "{country}, {province}, {city}\n{district}, {street}, {number}",
    'status' => true,
]);

Attach address/geo areas to your models using traits:

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use JobMetric\Location\HasAddress;
use JobMetric\Location\HasGeoArea;

class User extends Model
{
    use HasAddress;
}

class Shipping extends Model
{
    use HasGeoArea;
}
