Telize API shutdown

[JulianSamarjiev]

Hey @darul75, first of all, thank you for this package.

It seems that the Telize API, which your package is using, is shut down and therefore Satelize is not functional, at least in my application.

My question is, should I look for an alternative package, or do you have plans on adapting it?

[darul75]

Hi,
Thank you for feedback.
I made some changes long time ago...and maybe won't be able to maintain it but as Telize API was not free anymore, now an internal DB (extract from their free data) is loaded and should work for you too. https://github.com/darul75/satelize/blob/master/src/satelize.js#L25

@darul75 thank you for the quick reply, I'll try updating the package then, as I am currently running 0.1.2, anything I need to keep in mind? Thanks again!

[darul75]

I have just realized my current deployed version 0.1.2 is an old one and that I need to deploy a new one.

Maybe you can download all current code repo in the meantime.

[JulianSamarjiev]

I am able to update it to 0.2.0

[darul75]

You are true, npm has that current version but I forgot to create a release on github side as well. So then problem can come from the database not loaded correctly in memory ?

[JulianSamarjiev]

That could be. How would you recommend approaching this? Forking and putting it in the project manually?

Hey @darul75 are you keeping the internal database updated?

[darul75]

Hello I guess latest update was made by someone in this pr 7735048. It has been merged but I did not release any new version. You could probably update your own manually first.

Is there any other API/NPM Library I can leverage to get user's location based on IP?
