Changelog

Sourced from github.com/oschwald/maxminddb-golang/v2's changelog.

2.5.0 - 2026-08-08

  • Deprecated the legacy mmdbdata.Unmarshaler callback, UnmarshalMaxMindDB(*mmdbdata.Decoder) error. It remains supported throughout v2, but new handwritten decoders should implement mmdbdata.CursorUnmarshaler so nested decoding can return a proven successor without rescanning the value. When a type implements both interfaces, the cursor callback takes precedence. Removal is planned for v3. GitHub #224. Legacy callbacks must not retain the supplied decoder or its iterators after returning; decoder instances may now be pooled and reused.
  • Added the optional maxminddb-gen command for reproducible generation of reflection-free decoders for application-owned types, together with cursor primitives that avoid rescanning completely consumed containers and a pool-free cursor unmarshaling interface whose opaque successor supports single-pass nested custom decoding. The command discovers exported structs in its input source file and writes a matching <source>_maxminddb.go file by default while preserving build constraints and recognized filename build suffixes. Generated struct decoders use lightweight counted map traversal and compact pointer-string fast paths. Output-path migrations ignore superseded generated methods while analyzing replacements, MaxMind tag validation remains isolated from unrelated tags, and output replacement requires an exact generated ownership marker.
  • Fixed valid four-byte data pointers whose ignored high address bits produce control values 29 through 31 so they are not misread as extended value sizes.
  • Fixed the string cache so overlapping string encodings that share a payload offset remain distinct and cannot return the wrong cached string or map key.
  • Fixed nested struct fields containing a non-map value so decoding reports the correct type error at the field offset instead of retrying from the record root.
  • Reduced IPv4 and IPv6 lookup time for databases with 28-bit search-tree records.
  • Reduced allocations when recurring decoded strings share a primary cache slot.
  • Reduced struct decoding time by using compact field-name fingerprints before falling back to full string hashing.
  • Rejected impossible or malformed large container sizes before allocating destination maps and slices, while reducing preflight overhead for common strings and booleans and avoiding preflight when caller-provided slice capacity already prevents an allocation.
  • Kept readers reachable through memory-mapped lookup, decode, and iteration operations so runtime cleanup cannot unmap active data.
  • Reduced opening memory by decoding metadata without a string cache and added DisableStringCache for readers that favor lower memory over repeated-decode allocation savings.
  • Released decoder-owned data and cache references when a reader is closed.
  • Rejected invalid netip.Addr lookup values.
  • Made verification reject invalid UTF-8 strings and made empty-value filtering reject pointer-to-pointer records consistently with other decoder paths.
  • Corrected cold-cache and concurrent-lookup benchmarks so they measure steady cache misses and lookup work rather than warm caches and goroutine setup.
