7.0.0

• Breaking Dropped support for Node.js 18 and 20. Node.js 22 or greater is now
• Breaking Dropped commonjs support. The package is now only available as an ES module.
• Breaking Errors from the WebServiceClient are now thrown as
  WebServiceError instances, which extend Error, rather than as plain
  objects. The code, error, status, and url properties are preserved,
  so existing field access continues to work, but the thrown value is now an
  Error. The original error is now preserved as the standard cause
  property (for example, the network error behind a FETCH_ERROR). The
  WebServiceError class and the WebServiceClientError type are now exported
  from the package.
• The code property on WebServiceError and the WebServiceClientError
  interface is now typed as WebServiceErrorCode
  (ClientErrorCode | (string & {})) instead of string, providing
  autocompletion for the client-generated codes while still accepting any
  code returned by the web service. The ClientErrorCode and
  WebServiceErrorCode types are exported from the package.
• The AddressNotFoundError, BadMethodCallError, InvalidDbBufferError,
  and ValueError classes now accept an optional cause and forward it to
  Error. Reader.openBuffer() now preserves the underlying parsing error as
  the cause of the InvalidDbBufferError it throws.
• Added a fetcher option to the WebServiceClient options, allowing a
  custom fetch implementation to be supplied (for example, to route requests
  through a custom dispatcher or proxy, or for testing). It defaults to the
  global fetch. The WebServiceClientOptions type is exported from the
  package.

6.3.4

• Second attempt to fix doc publishing during release from GitHub.

6.3.3

• Doc publishing fix during release from GitHub.

6.3.2

• Second release attempt via Trusted Publishing.

6.3.1

• First release attempt via Trusted Publishing.

6.3.0

• A new anonymizer object has been added to the Insights response model.
  This object contains information about anonymizing services and VPN providers
  associated with an IP address. Available from the GeoIP2 Insights web service
  only. The object includes the following properties:
  • confidence: A score (1-99) representing percent confidence that the
    network is part of an actively used VPN service
  • isAnonymous: Indicates if the IP belongs to any anonymous network
  • isAnonymousVpn: Identifies IPs registered to anonymous VPN providers
  • isHostingProvider: Flags hosting/VPN providers used for anonymizing
  • isPublicProxy: Identifies public proxy addresses
  • isResidentialProxy: Detects suspected anonymizing networks on
    residential ISPs
  • isTorExitNode: Identifies Tor exit nodes
  • networkLastSeen: The last day (YYYY-MM-DD) the network was sighted in
    our analysis of anonymized networks
  • providerName: The name of identified VPN providers (e.g., "NordVPN")
• A new ipRiskSnapshot property has been added to the traits object.
  This provides a risk score ranging from 0.01 to 99, with higher values
  indicating greater risk. Available from the GeoIP2 Insights web service only.
• The following properties in the traits object have been deprecated in
  favor of the new anonymizer object. These properties will continue to work
  but users should migrate to using the anonymizer object:
  • isAnonymous
  • isAnonymousVpn
  • isHostingProvider
  • isPublicProxy
  • isResidentialProxy
  • isTorExitNode
• Added the status property to WebServiceClientError. This property
  contains the HTTP status code when the error is the result of an HTTP
  response error. Network errors (timeouts, fetch errors) will not have a
  status code.

6.2.0

• Updated dependency maxmind to v5.0.0. This fixes an issue where an
  older version of maxmind was technically allowed which did not support
  GeoIP Anonymous Plus. Reported by Carlos Alberto Costa Beppler. GitHub #1587.

6.1.0

6.1.0

• Support for the GeoIP Anonymous Plus database has been added. To do a
  lookup in this database, use the anonymousPlus method on the
  database reader.

v6.0.0

• Breaking Internal webservice calls now use Node's built-in fetch instead of http. This
  will affect users who are on unsupported versions of Node, specifically Node 17 and below.
• Two new error codes have been added: NETWORK_TIMEOUT and FETCH_ERROR, second of which is returned
  when there's a fetch related error that could not be handled by other errors.
• The ip6addr dependency has been removed.
• metroCode on LocationRecord has been marked deprecated. The code values
  are no longer being updated.

v5.0.0

• Breaking Drop node 16 support
• The isAnycast attribute was added to TraitsRecord. This is true if
  the IP address belongs to an anycast
  network. This is available for the
  GeoIP2 Country, City Plus, and Insights web services and the GeoIP2 Country,
  City, and Enterprise databases.
• The boolean attributes on the record models are no longer optional. We
  set missing values to false during construction.
