ipapi's Issues

Error with upload to Shiny Server

The package works fine for me on my local machine, but when I try to upload it to an app using Shiny Server, I get the following error.

Loading required package: ipapi
Loading required package: data.table
Error : objects ‘winProgressBar’, ‘getWinProgressBar’, ‘setWinProgressBar’ are not exported by 'namespace:utils'

Package data.table automatically gets loaded as it is a requirement for ipapi.

Quick note

Note to folks looking at this pkg for IP geolocation (I saw that @ktargows recently forked it).

The rgeolocate package is a far better one to use since it doesn't involve an API (and I help maintain that one). https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/rgeolocate/index.html

rOpenSci

Your README says this is part of rOpenSci but I don't see it in the R package list on the rOpenSci page.
