I’m a rabbit by the data stream,

String keys hop along the way,
Short reads stop instead of stray.
The metadata stays in view,
And all my carrots decode true.

Handle FileBuffer when data_end is omitted.
FileBuffer provides size() but does not implement __len__. Therefore, direct Decoder(FileBuffer(path)) construction raises TypeError. Reader passes data_end explicitly, so ordinary reader use is not blocked. This is a narrow direct-Decoder regression.
Use the buffer's size interface when it is available.
Suggested fix
if data_end is None:
- data_end = len(database_buffer) # type: ignore[arg-type]
+ data_end = (
+ database_buffer.size()
+ if hasattr(database_buffer, "size")
+ else len(database_buffer)
+ )📝 Committable suggestion
‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

(Claude Sonnet 5.5, replying on behalf of @oschwald) Confirmed: Decoder(FileBuffer(path)) raised TypeError when data_end was omitted. Fixed in 8a8aec6 by adding FileBuffer.__len__, so the default bound works for bytes, mmap and FileBuffer. A new test decodes a value with each buffer type and no data_end.

Copilot review overview
🟡 Changes recommended
Default decoder construction with a FileBuffer raises TypeError because the new bound calculation assumes the buffer supports len().

The pure Python reader did not check that a value stayed inside the data section. A string, bytes, or integer value that extended past the end of the database decoded to a shorter value. A value that extended into the metadata section decoded bytes from the metadata. It now raises InvalidDatabaseError when a value extends past the end of the data section. This applies to the memory, mmap, and file modes. The C extension reads through libmaxminddb, whose data section bound includes the metadata. Thus the extension does not reject a value that extends into the metadata section. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A map key that is not a string now raises InvalidDatabaseError, as in the C extension. Before, the reader returned a key that can be hashed, such as an int. The type check also covers a key that cannot be hashed, so the TypeError handler is no longer necessary. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The only test of a non-string map key ran on the C extension. Move it to the base test class and add a bytes key, so that every reader mode must raise InvalidDatabaseError that names the problem. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The reader stored the buffer size in _buffer_size. It now uses the size only to find the metadata marker, so it calls len() there instead. For an mmap, len() gives the mapped length, where size() gives the current file size. FileBuffer.size() repeated __len__, so remove it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Most map keys in a real database are pointers to shared strings. Each one took three Python calls: _decode, _decode_pointer, and _decode for the target. _decode_key decodes a string key or a pointer to one in one call, and it rejects other key types as part of the decode. On GeoLite City, pure Python lookups take about 8% less time than on origin/main. Before this change, the bound and key checks of this branch made them about 2.6% slower. A pointer key no longer counts toward the depth limit, because a string cannot nest. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Fixes for malformed databases in the pure Python reader:
Values past the end of the data section. A string, bytes, integer, double, or float value that extended past the end of the data section decoded to a shorter value, or to bytes from the metadata. A search tree record or a pointer could also lead into the metadata. The decoder now has an explicit data-section end, and it raises
InvalidDatabaseErrorfor:A search tree that extends into the metadata now fails when the database opens. This applies to the memory, mmap, and file modes.
Non-string map keys. A map key that is not a string now raises
InvalidDatabaseError, with the same message as the C extension. Before, the reader returned a key that can be hashed, such as an int.Short reads in
MODE_FILE.FileBuffernow raisesInvalidDatabaseErrorwhen a read returns fewer bytes than requested. This can happen if the file shrinks after the reader opens it.Upstream already fixed the C extension's map key check and its reference leaks, so this PR no longer changes the extension.
Differences that remain
Performance
Map keys now decode in
_decode_key, which reads a string key or a pointer to one in a single call. Most keys in a real database are pointers, and each one took three calls before. This saves more time than the new checks add.Pure Python lookups on GeoLite City (Python 3.13,
MODE_MEMORY, 20,000 random IPv4 addresses, best of 5 per process, 4 ABBA rounds againstmain):Tests
New decoder tests cover:
New reader tests build small databases with a value that runs into the metadata, a record that points into the metadata, and a search tree that overlaps the metadata. They also check non-string keys in every mode, including the extension.
pytestpasses with the extension built, and ruff and mypy are clean.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
