I would like to use the geograpy3 package for a city & country mapping of string values, related to locations (like 'Roma, Italy' or just 'Timișoara'). It runs on my venv under OpenSuse 15.3.

Unfortunately, I can't get along with the SQLite DB. My test files always end with errors like:

sqlite3.OperationalError: no such table ...

In detail:

import geograpy
url='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012_Summer_Olympics_torch_relay'
places = geograpy.get_geoPlace_context(url = url)

print(places)

ends with:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    query = cur.execute(sqlQuery,params)
sqlite3.OperationalError: no such table: countries

What have I missed?

Look under your $HOME/.geograpy3/locations.db, if the file does not exist or is empty download it from here.

For more information look at this issue: https://github.com/somnathrakshit/geograpy3/issues/59
