Description

With the current implementation, the latest geoip data gets loaded to MySQl db as the url in geoip.yml is made to point to :- http://geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/database/GeoLiteCity_CSV/GeoLiteCity-latest.tar.xz

• name: Download GeoIP databases
  unarchive:
  src: http://geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/database/GeoLiteCity_CSV/GeoLiteCity-latest.tar.xz
  dest: /tmp/geoip
  copy: no
  creates: /tmp/geoip/*/GeoLiteCity-Blocks.csv

However, we would like to provide the user with the ability to specify the geodata that he wishes to load to the mysql and build metron project.
The user can specify the URL or the filename directly that should be picked up for loading the geo data.
