Add update task #39

Open lostapathy opened 6 months ago

lostapathy commented 6 months ago

We keep running into missing zip codes and I noticed the list of PRs to manually add things one at a time seems like a lot of maintainer overhead.

This task lets you download the latest upstream file and incorporate all new zip codes in one shot. This could be extended to also download the upstream file automatically, but I did not include that because I wanted to mirror the behavior of the existing rake task. If you'd like me to add that I'm happy to.

Whether we can get this merged or not, though, it'd be great if we could cut a new gem version that includes all the added zip codes.

Thanks! This gem has been tremendously useful for us.

@brodyhoskins is there any interest at all in the rake task in this PR, or should I give up on that and submit PRs for individual missing zip codes instead?
