# Step 1) Find the public IP of the user. This is easier said that done, look into the library Netifaces if you're
# interested in getting the public IP locally.
# The GeoIP API I'm going to use here is 'https://geojs.io/' but any service offering similar JSON data will work.

ip_request = requests.get('https://get.geojs.io/v1/ip.json')
my_ip = ip_request.json()['ip']  # ip_request.json() => {ip: 'XXX.XXX.XX.X'}
print(my_ip)
# Prints The IP string, ex: 198.975.33.4

# Step 2) Look up the GeoIP information from a database for the user's ip

geo_request_url = 'https://get.geojs.io/v1/ip/geo/' + my_ip + '.json'
geo_request = requests.get(geo_request_url)
geo_data = geo_request.json()
print(geo_data)


# {
# "area_code": "0",
# "continent_code": "NA",
# "country": "United States",
# "country_code": "US",
# "country_code3": "USA",
# "ip": "198.975.33.4",
# "latitude": "37.7510",
# "longitude": "-97.8220",
# "organization": "AS15169 Google Inc.",
# "timezone": ""
# }  This is a fake example I grabbed from the GeoJS website

# Putting It All Together:

def display_ip():
    """  Function To Print GeoIP Latitude & Longitude """
    ip_request = requests.get('https://get.geojs.io/v1/ip.json')
    my_ip = ip_request.json()['ip']
    geo_request = requests.get('https://get.geojs.io/v1/ip/geo/' + my_ip + '.json')
    geo_data = geo_request.json()
    print({'latitude': geo_data['latitude'], 'longitude': geo_data['longitude']})
