How to get city name by ip in google map?

Please help me to find cityname according to ip. Let me explain.

I am developing a webpage where I want it to automatically fetch the city name where it is opened and it should also display the location in the google map automatically.

Another source is: https://www.geoip-db.com They provide a JSON and JSONP-callback solution.

A jQuery example:

<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html> 
<head> 
<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no"/> 
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/> 
<title>Geo City Locator</title>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head> 
<body > 
    <div>Country: <span id="country"></span></div>
    <div>State: <span id="state"></spa></div>
    <div>City: <span id="city"></span></div>
    <div>Latitude: <span id="latitude"></span></div>
    <div>Longitude: <span id="longitude"></span></div>
    <div>IP: <span id="ip"></span></div>    

    <script>
      $.getJSON('https://geoip-db.com/json/geoip.php?jsonp=?').done(function(location) {
        $('#country').html(location.country_name);
        $('#state').html(location.state);
        $('#city').html(location.city);
        $('#latitude').html(location.latitude);
        $('#longitude').html(location.longitude);
        $('#ip').html(location.IPv4);               
     });
</script>

You should use an IP to location API, like these:

http://ipinfodb.com/ip_location_api_json.php

http://www.ipaddressapi.com/ ($)

Or manage to get data from other sources like:

http://www.iplocation.net/

http://ip2loc.jerodsanto.net/
