Installation

<script src="/path/to/country.min.js"></script>

or

npm install --save country-list-js

Basic Usage

Instantiation

var country = new Country; 

Searching

var found = country.find('BD', country.FIND_BY_ISO_ALPHA_2);
var found = country.find('BGD', country.FIND_BY_ISO_ALPHA_3);
var found = country.find('Bangladesh', country.FIND_BY_NAME);
var found = country.find('Capital', country.FIND_BY_CAPITAL);
var found = country.find('BDT', country.FIND_BY_CURRENCY);
var found = country.find('880', country.FIND_BY_PHONE_NBR);

• Note: Search query is case insensitive.

The search option can also be hard coded as following

country.FIND_BY_ALPHA_2 = 1
country.FIND_BY_ALPHA_3 = 2
country.FIND_BY_NAME = 3
country.FIND_BY_CAPITAL = 4
country.FIND_BY_CURRENCY = 5
country.FIND_BY_PHONE_NBR = 6

country.find('BD', country.FIND_BY_ISO_ALPHA_2); can be written as country.find('BD', 1);

If the country was not found, the variable found will be null. The return value of all of those above will be similar to the following

{
    continent: "Asia",
    name: "Bangladesh",
    code: {
        iso_alpha_2: "BD",
        iso_alpha_3: "BGD"
    },
    capital: "Dhaka",
    currency: {
        code: "BDT",
        symbol: "Tk",
        decimal: "2"
    },
    dialing_code: "880"
}

Once the search has been made, if the country was found, the information is stored in the instance. We can retrieve the information without having to search again.

var found = country.info();
var name = country.info('name'); //Bangladesh
var iso_alpha_2 = country.info('iso_alpha_2'); //BD
var iso_alpha_3 = country.info('iso_alpha_3'); //BGD
var continent = country.info('continent'); //Asia
var capital = country.info('capital'); //Dhaka
var currency = country.info('currency'); //{ code: "BDT", symbol: "Tk", decimal: "2"}
currency.code //BDT
currency.symbol //Tk
currency.decimal //2
var dialing_code = country.info('dialing_code'); //880

Object destructure supported since 2.0.0
