maxmind-geolite-mirror
Mirror maxmind GeoIP databases from geolite.maxmind.com. Geolite version 1 and version 2 databases are mirrored.
Install
npm install -g maxmind-geolite-mirror
mkdir -p /usr/local/share/GeoIP
/usr/local/bin/maxmind-geolite-mirror
The last command will download all the databases to the GeoIP share directory.
Update databases
/usr/local/bin/maxmind-geolite-mirror
Set this to run once a week or so. Downloads will only happen if the remote file is newer than the local version.
Custom path to store maxmind database
If access to /usr/local/share/GeoIP is unavailable, the following environment variable is available: MAXMIND_DB_DIR. E.g.
export MAXMIND_DB_DIR=/home/example/maxmind-db
