  • BREAKING CHANGE: Improvements to the HTTP download API.
    The client now calls two new endpoints:
    • /geoip/updates/metadata which is responsible for getting information about
      a database edition.
    • /geoip/databases/{edition-id}/download which is responsible for downloading
      the content of a database edition. This new endpoint redirects downloads to R2
      presigned URLs, so systems running geoipupdate need to be able to
      reach
      mm-prod-geoip-databases.a2649acb697e2c09b632799562c076f2.r2.cloudflarestorage.com
      in addition to updates.maxmind.com.
  • BREAKING CHANGE: The public package API has been redesigned. The previous
    API was not easy to use and had become a maintenance burden. We now
    expose a Client at github.com/maxmind/geoipupdate/client with a
    Download() method. The intention is to expose less of the geoipupdate
    internals and provide a simpler and easier to use package. Many
    previously exposed methods and types are now either internal only or have
    been removed.
  • BREAKING CHANGE: If set, GEOIPUPDATE_VERBOSE must either be 0 or 1.
    All other values will return an error.
  • Setting GEOIPUPDATE_VERBOSE to 1 now works as expected. In the 6.0.0 and
    6.1.0 releases, the flag was ignored. Reported by pmcevoy. GitHub #298.
  • geoipupdate now supports retrying on more types of errors
    such as HTTP2 INTERNAL_ERROR.
  • Now geoipupdate doesn't requires the user to specify the config file
    even if all the other arguments are set via the environment variables.
    Reported by jsf84ksnf. GitHub #284.
