maxmind_geo_ip2 API client

Full documentation here: https://docs.rs/maxmind_geo_ip2/

Crates.io page here: https://crates.io/crates/maxmind_geo_ip2

WARNING: This is still very much a work in progress - this should probably/definitely NOT BE USED IN PRODUCTION.

This is my first Rust crate, so any suggestion about improvements, etc are very welcome.

To-dos:

  • error handling
  • response status checks

Dependencies

reqwest = { version = "0.11.3", features = ["rustls", "json"] }
serde = { version = "1.0.125", features = ["derive"] }

Usage

Import the api client from the crate:

use maxmind_geo_ip2::ApiClient;

Initialize the client with Maxmind API credentials:

let maxmind_client = ApiClient::new_client(String::from("user_id_here"), String::from("license_key_here"));
