https://github.com/mdomsch/geoip-city-wsgi now has the decent start of a trivial lookup. It reads the IP address from the incoming connection, and responds with the JSON-formatted result from the GeoIP City lookup, which includes timezones. Plug this into an apache web server and you're good to go. It doesn't do IPv6 though - the python library doesn't support GeoIP City IPv6 lookups. -- Matt Domsch Technology Strategist Dell | Office of the CTO -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Fenzi [mailto:kevin@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, May 09, 2013 10:35 AM To: Vratislav Podzimek Cc: Domsch, Matt; mkolman@xxxxxxxxxx; mdomsch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; dcantrel@xxxxxxxxxx; infrastructure@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: MirrorManager GEO IP API On Mon, 06 May 2013 14:03:41 +0200 Vratislav Podzimek <vpodzime@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Thu, 2013-05-02 at 11:07 -0600, Kevin Fenzi wrote: > > On Tue, 30 Apr 2013 07:56:31 -0500 > > <Matt_Domsch@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > > I think it would work best to use a dedicated Apache module, such > > > as http://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/mod_geoip2 rather than add > > > another interface into MirrorManager which otherwise duplicates > > > this.
