Feat: `auto` location option using public IP
Author: TheJolmanCreated Feb 27, 2026Updated Apr 12, 2026
Why
Automatically getting location from IP would be useful for those that travel frequently.
How
There are lots of free APIs like https://ipinfo.io/json that provide a users general location without requiring an API key.
Considerations
This would be a useful default option in .wegorc, but keeping the current default option might be more transparent and privacy-respecting.
I'm not sure if this project is still actively maintained, if it is would love thoughts on this idea. Can implement if well-received. :)
