Get Country Code Using Javascript

I can't figure out how to get a country code from a visitor that goes to my webpage. I have seen plenty of other examples but none use plain Javascript. Here is my current code: &l

Solution 1:

According to the docs on the website, you should be able to retrieve the country code with ipinfo. try using $.getJSON instead of $.get

var country_code = null;
$.getJSON('http://ipinfo.io/' + userip, function(data){
    country_code = data.country;
    alert(country_code);
});

Solution 2:

I have used the below code using jQuery and its working fine for me. I am getting the country_code , country_name etc.,.

 jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
    jQuery.getScript('http://www.geoplugin.net/javascript.gp', function() 
    {
        var country = geoplugin_countryName();
        alert(country);
        var code = geoplugin_countryCode();
        alert(code);
        console.log("Your location is: " + country + ", " + zone + ", " + district);
    });
});

Note: Do remember to import the plugin script as below:

<script src="http://www.geoplugin.net/javascript.gp" type="text/javascript"></script>
