Mobi_Mtld_DA_Carrier_CarrierApiWeb extends Mobi_Mtld_DA_Carrier_CarrierApi
in package

A small extension to the core CarrierApi to get IP from $_SERVER for current client.

The getProperties() and getProperty() methods in this class extract the most suitable client IP.

Example usage:

$carrierApi = new CarrierApiWeb();
// loading data can be slow - it is recommended wrap the API in a Singleton.
$carrierApi->loadDataFromFile('/path/to/sample.dat');

// get all properties for current client
Properties props = carrierApi.GetProperties(request);

// .... use the properties ....
if (props.ContainsKey("networkOperator") {
   string operatorName = props.Get("networkOperator").AsString();
}

// get a single property
Property countryProp = carrierApi.GetProperty("countryCode");
if (countryProp != null) {
  string countryCode = countryProp.AsString();
}
