Geoloc with livecode-server

Post by magixbox » Tue Feb 26, 2019 10:01 am

Self-contained, standalone geo-location service that you may setup on any livecode server which based on open source geoloc database.
Free and open source for any use.

https://github.com/magixbox/livecode-server-geoloc

A little technical specification:
- using sqlite3 database
- require livecode-server CGI (version 6 and above)
- tested on ubuntu 10, linux, apache2; works on most server (even on Raspberry PI)

* BTW this is my first 'open source' LiveCode project.

Super cool. Thanks for sharing.

Will you be adding a LICENSE file to the repo? It'll help people understand how they can use the code.

I'll like to make this free for any use and modification, personal or corporate.
However, the database (open source) is maintain by MaxMind, and there are clauses on using it.

I guess I still have to make it clear with LICENSE statement somewhere.
Thanks for the advice.
