Currently this will strip www. from any URL. This may change the result, as www.example.com and example.com could resolve to different IP addresses.
Could you explain your reasoning for doing this?

My bad, I assumed that socket.gethostbyname would error out on the www. My fault. Please remove this.

I believe you should be able to edit it, and push to your fork to add the changes to this pull request. Could you do that?

I think that it really would be preferred if this could be done with an internal process, rather than calling an external API which may or may not continue to function in the future. This does seem like a useful function change though. I think it would be possible to rewrite the current plugin to still use pygeoip, but add support for raw IP addresses and IPv6 however. |
moved all the unneeded stuff to disabled_stuff
