- アドレス・ベース・レジストリの 2024 年版フォーマットに対応しました。

Address changes due to merging municipalities are now supported.
When retrieving old addresses, they are converted to new addresses automatically before parsing.

For example, "神奈川県津久井郡津久井町中野633" is parsed as "神奈川県/相模原市/緑区/中野/633番地",
because 津久井町 was incorporated into 相模原市 in March 2006 and "津久井町/中野" became "相模原市/津久井町中野"
and when 相模原市 became an ordinance-designated city in April 2010 it became "相模原市/緑区/中野".

The dictionary files for v2.0 are also supported in v2.1, but the files for v2.1 must be installed
in order to use the automatic address conversion feature.

You can download the latest dictionary for v2.1 from https://www.info-proto.com/static/jageocoder/latest/

This is a bug fix release.
- Fixed a bug that could cause an error when executing 'install-dictionary' on the command line.
- Added the ability to specify search options with environment variables when executing 'search' on the command line.
- Improved the search results when the 'best_only' option is off so that the results are sorted in descending order by match string length and the top node of the search results is excluded from the results.
- Changed command line help messages to Japanese.

No need to update dictionary data.

This is a security update.
- Updated Flask version to 2.2.5 to address vulnerabilities.

In addition, the following changes were also made
- Added confirmation of overwriting when installing new dictionary.
- Updated PortableTab to 0.3.3 to improve efficiency when creating dictionary data.

No need to update dictionary data.

Reverse geocoding functionality was re-implemented using the [Rtree](https://rtree.readthedocs.io/) package.

Data files for reverse geocoding (serialied Rtree data) are not included in the distributed address data files since they are architecture dependent. The required data files will be automatically generated from the address data when the reverse geocoding function is used for the first time. This process may take about 10 minutes, depending on machine performance.

To try reverse geocoding from the command line, run the following command.

Changed backend data management system from SQLite3 to PortableTab to improve processing speed.

Due to the following limitations present in this version, the v1 and v2 series will be maintained in parallel for some time.
- Reverse geocoding function is not available.
- It is not compatible with the existing address data files.

To use this version of the package, the version of the address dictionary should be "20230405" or later.
