  Looks neat. Might replace the slightly hacky cloudfront viewer request function I use to do this on my personal projects.

    Thanks. Please share your experience if you ended up using it. I will be more than happy to address any issues you might face or any concerns and suggestions you have.

  Oh awesome. Self hosting geo-ip is so nice, but updating the DB is a pain. Great idea.

    Yeah exactly. In all years of my experience I have seen different implementation of this which is hard to maintain. I hope this can help developers to keep their focus on the actual problems that they are solving.
