Browser country

Flow

Hi, I’m trying to get the user country using VaadinService.getCurrentRequest().getLocale().getCountry() but it shows an empty string. How can I obtain the current country of an user?

2

That’s technically not reliable possible. (Without external services)

3

I need for example of this information: en-US

4

Language and country. There is another way to obtain this result?

5

You could probably look at the Accept-Language Header and parse it

6

The Accept-Language Header can contains only language… but I really need of the region too

7

You can fiddle with js https://www.techighness.com/post/get-user-country-and-region-on-browser-with-javascript-only/
