Update to latest geonames data #18

Closed mcarans closed 6 years ago

mcarans commented 6 years ago

Would it be possible to release an update on Pypi with latest geonames data?

I tried to figure out how to update the JSON files but could not see where they come from on the geonames website.

Have there been any changes you are aware of that are not part of the current release?

I don't know sorry. As I didn't know if this project was still supported, I have made a new package based on the World Bank's country api: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/hdx-python-utilities

geonamescache aims to provide quick access and don't do any HTTP requests, so your package serves a different purpose, which is fine of course. I keep this issue open until I do the next release with updated data.

Version 1.0.1 contains data downloaded today.
