v1.2.0

It's been a while since the last release, so all of the dependencies have been updated, but this is mostly about the first user contribution.

Changed

• Moved to using Go embed for the data files, thanks to @benjojo (#18)
• Updated to Go 1.19
• Updated other dependencies

v1.1.1

I broke v1.1.0 when removing the large files from the git history so this will replace it.

Changed

• Much smaller repo
• Readme rewrite

v1.1.0

Mostly just bumping the version to see if pkg.go.dev will update now the data files are much smaller.

Changed

• GeoJSON data is now compressed with gzip in go files, leading to much smaller file sizes without a noticeable performance hit when reading.

v1.0.0

This release is now broken due to some large files being removed from the git history.

Added

• Province information to Location.
• New dataset Cities10 and added City field to Location.

Changed

• Fixed datagen, and moved template back into code.
• New can now accept multiple datasets (which is only really useful when you
  want to use Cities10 and get province/country information.
• Switched to Apache License.
• Better errors.
• 100% test coverage.

v0.0.5

This release is now broken due to some large files being removed from the git history.

Added

• JSON strings in Location for more idiomatic marshalling .
• datagen can now read multiple inputs to one output.
• 1:10m scale datasets for countries and provinces.
• Datasets are returned from functions so the compiler doesn't include unused ones in builds.
• Brought back the New function to initialise the data.

Changes

• Massive speed increase on queries.
• Data initialisation is probably slower.

v0.0.4

Changed

• Minor Documentation changes, making a new release just to get rid of the giant This file is generated in the godoc.

v0.0.3

Added

• More robust Location printing.

Changed

• Data is now included as a struct in a go file instead of geojson.
• Changed the algorithm to remove dependence on s2, so it doesn't need to convert between s2 and geom types. This is a lot faster than converting to s2 types every time, but slower than pre-converted.

Removed

• Function New() and access to the rgeo data type, the data is already parsed so it doesn't need to be parsed when used.

v0.0.2

Added

• 2 letter country codes, continents, regions and subregions to output.
• Type Rgeo and function New to parse the JSON and create the polygons ahead of time so it doesn't need to be done every time ReverseGeocode is run.

Changed

• Moved to using s2 Polygons instead of just s2 Loops.
• Using github.com/go-test/deep for nicer printing in tests.

Initial Release

Added

Initial release

• Exposes Function ReverseGeocode and type Location.
• Just give ReverseGeocode a pair of coordinates and it will return a Location containing information about which country those coordinates are in.
