php - add country data each time I create a user in Laravel -

i use library city , country ip.

so, when user register, add data request, insert in db.

$location = geoip::getlocation(config::get('constants.client_ip')); //     simulating ip in mexico df     if (!is_null($location)){         $country = countries::where("name", $location['country'])->first();         if (is_null($country)){             $country_id = config::get('constants.country_id_default');         }else{             $country_id = $country->id;         }         $request->request->add(['country_id' => $country_id ]);         $request->request->add(['city' => $location['city'] ]);         $request->request->add(['latitude' => $location['lat'] ]);         $request->request->add(['longitude' => $location['lon'] ]);     }else{         $request->request->add(['country_id' => config::get('constants.country_id_default') ]);         $request->request->add(['city' => "paris" ]);         $request->request->add(['latitude' => "48.858222" ]);         $request->request->add(['longitude' => "2.2945" ]);     } 

thing must run in different places (authrequest, userrequest, etc) must authrequest , userrequest differs on validation, process not same.

admin can add user userrequests, authrequest register process.

what should best way add data when user

you can use eloquent events automatically run code when events fired. in case can use created method.

this way define once process.

the docs eloquent model can found here.

if have lot of processes this, i'd advise create model observers classes can define automated processes.
