MaxMind Database as having issues with RIPE and IPDENY

[tricky1024]

Would it be possible to have maxmind used as a source as im having an issue in the UK with IP address ranges missing from RIPE and IPDENY.

Hi, do you know for a fact that Maxmind's database includes these ranges for UK? If so then which one - GeoLite2 (the free one) or GeoIP2 (the paid one)?

i have tested maxmind's free database with that same IP and it works perfectly, i really feel integrating the free database would be useful.

Thanks for the suggestion and for testing. I'll look into implementing this feature but it may take some time because I'm currently working on implementation of another fairly big feature which is outbound geoblocking. When that is complete, I'll be open to implementing additional features.

perfect, thank you so much

Hi @tricky1024 , I just released geoip-shell v0.6.4 which adds support for MaxMind. Please let me know how it works for you.
