Countries 🌍

Countries is a collection of all sorts of useful information for every country in the ISO 3166 standard. It is based on the data from the ruby gem Countries.

Installation

As the current version of yamerl at hex.pm is not working correctly, we have to add the dependencies yamerl and countries manually from github to our mix.exs.

defp deps do
  [{:yamerl, github: "yakaz/yamerl"},
   {:countries, github: "SebastianSzturo/countries"}]
end

After you are done, run mix deps.get in your shell to fetch and compile countries.

Usage

Find country by attribute.

country = Countries.filter_by(:alpha2, "DE")
# [%Countries.Country{alpha2: 'DE', alpha3: 'DEU', continent: 'Europe',
#    country_code: '49', currency: 'EUR', ...]

countries = Countries.filter_by(:region, "Europe")
Enum.count(countries)
# 51

Get all Countries.

countries = Countries.all
Enum.count(countries)
# 250
