django-cities-light – Simple django-cities alternative
This add-on provides models and commands to import country, region/state, and city data in your database.
The data is pulled from GeoNames and contains cities, regions/states and countries.
Spatial query support is not required by this application.
This application is very simple and is useful if you want to make a simple address book for example. If you intend to build a fully featured spatial database, you should use django-cities.
Requirements:
Python 2.7 or 3.3,
Django 1.4 or 1.5 or 1.6,
MySQL or PostgreSQL or SQLite.
django-south is optionnal, but recommended.
Upgrade
See CHANGELOG.
Installation
Install django-cities-light:
pip install django-cities-light
Or the development version:
pip install -e git+git@github.com:yourlabs/django-cities-light.git#egg=cities_light
Add cities_light to your INSTALLED_APPS.
Now, run syncdb, it will only create tables for models that are not disabled:

Note that this project supports django-south. It is recommended that you use south too else you’re on your own for migrations/upgrades.
