How can i restrict acces in my page? Symfony2

My problem is: I need to restrict access to people from another country such as Japan . As I do so that no one in Japan can go to my website ?

Solution

  • Use http://ipinfo.io/ API. The code looks like: (PHP)

    $allowed_countries = array("IN", "US", ...);
$country = file_get_contents("http://ipinfo.io/{$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']}/country");
if(!in_array($country, $allowed_countries)) 
{
   echo 'Restricted'; //or any error message.
}
