How to Get Country State City using Google API in PHP?
Let’s use the following steps to get country state city using google apis:
- Step 1 – Get Google API Key
- Step 2 – Implement Code to Show Country State City
- Step 3 – Add Google Api Key in Code
- Step 4 – Start Country State City using Google API App
Step 1 – Get Google API Key
You need to create google map API key before you can make calls to the Google Maps Geocoding service.
First of all, you have to visit: https://cloud.google.com/maps-platform/?_ga=2.27293823.277869946.1577356888-568469380.1576660626#get-started and get the API key.
To get an API key:
- Visit the Google Cloud Platform Console.
- Click the project drop-down and select or create the project for which you want to add an API key.
- Click the menu button and select APIs & Services > Credentials.
- On the Credentials page, click Create credentials > API key.
The API key created dialog displays your newly created API key. - Click Close.
The new API key is listed on the Credentials page under API keys.
(Remember to restrict the API key before using it in production.)
Step 2 – Implement Code to Show Country State City
Create a simple php file, which name country-state-city.php and add the following code into your file:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Display Country State City using Google API</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-MCw98/SFnGE8fJT3GXwEOngsV7Zt27NXFoaoApmYm81iuXoPkFOJwJ8ERdknLPMO" crossorigin="anonymous"> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/umd/popper.min.js" integrity="sha384-ZMP7rVo3mIykV+2+9J3UJ46jBk0WLaUAdn689aCwoqbBJiSnjAK/l8WvCWPIPm49" crossorigin="anonymous"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/js/bootstrap.min.js" integrity="sha384-ChfqqxuZUCnJSK3+MXmPNIyE6ZbWh2IMqE241rYiqJxyMiZ6OW/JmZQ5stwEULTy" crossorigin="anonymous"></script> </head> <body> <div class="alert alert-success" role="alert"> <div class="form-group"> <label class="control-label col-sm-2" for="pwd">Address:</label> <div class="col-sm-8"> <input type="text" id="YourPlaces" name="YourPlaces" /> <input type="text" id="YourCity" name="YourCity" placeholder="Your City" /> <input type="text" id="YourState" name="YourState" placeholder="Your State" /> <input type="text" id="YourCountry" name="YourCountry" placeholder="Your Country" /> <input type="text" id="YourPinCode" name="YourPinCode" placeholder="Your Pin Code" /> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&libraries=places&key=AIzaSyCXFJ-lc7cHHcEklG2_oIhTnPKTWsLwHEU"></script> <script> google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', function () { var places = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(document.getElementById('YourPlaces')); google.maps.event.addListener(places, 'place_changed', function () { console.log(places.getPlace()); var getaddress = places.getPlace(); //alert(getaddress.address_components[0].long_name); var whole_address = getaddress.address_components; //alert(whole_address + 'whole_address'); $('#YourCity').val(''); $('#YourState').val(''); $('#YourCountry').val(''); $('#YourPinCode').val(''); $.each(whole_address, function(key1, value1) { //alert(value1.long_name); //alert(value1.types[0]); if((value1.types[0]) == 'locality') { var prev_long_name_city = value1.long_name; //alert(prev_long_name_city + '__prev_long_name_city'); $('#YourCity').val(prev_long_name_city); } if((value1.types[0]) == 'administrative_area_level_1') { var prev_long_name_state = value1.long_name; //alert(prev_long_name_state + '__prev_long_name_state'); $('#YourState').val(prev_long_name_state); } if((value1.types[0]) == 'country') { var prev_long_name_country = value1.long_name; //alert(prev_long_name_country + '__prev_long_name_country'); $('#YourCountry').val(prev_long_name_country); } if((value1.types[0]) == 'postal_code') { var prev_long_name_pincode = value1.long_name; //alert(prev_long_name_pincode + '__prev_long_name_pincode'); $('#YourPinCode').val(prev_long_name_pincode); } }); }); }); </script>
Step 3 – Add Google Api Key in Code
In this step, you will create a javascript code for calling the google geocode v3 api with the address to get country state city name from address.
Note:- Don’t forget to put your google map api key here:
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&libraries=places&key=API_KEY_CODE"></script> <script>
Then add the above-given API key code into your html code.
Step 4 – Start Country State City using Google API App
Now, open your browser and open this app into it.
