mobile-codes

Contains the country codes from ISO 3166-1 based on the code based on:

https://github.com/deactivated/python-iso3166/

But also has the MCC and MNC codes based on the Wikipedia page:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mobile_country_codes

As well as the latest released listing from ITU:

http://www.itu.int/dms_pub/itu-t/opb/sp/T-SP-E.212B-2014-PDF-E.pdf

Note that MCC codes for a country can be:

• None (no MCC code)
• a string (where a country has one code)
• a tuple of strings (where a country has more than one code)

Installation

::

$ pip install mobile-codes

Usage

::

>>> import mobile_codes

Lookup by Mobile Country Code (MCC)::

>>> mobile_codes.mcc("648")
[Country(name=u'Zimbabwe', alpha2='ZW', alpha3='ZWE', numeric='716', mcc='648')]
>>> mobile_codes.mcc("311")
[Country(name=u'Guam', alpha2='GU', alpha3='GUM', numeric='316', mcc=('310', '311')),
 Country(name=u'United States', alpha2='US', alpha3='USA', numeric='840', mcc=('310', '311', '313', '316'))]
>>> mobile_codes.mcc("313")
[Country(name=u'United States', alpha2='US', alpha3='USA', numeric='840', mcc=('310', '311', '313', '316'))]

Lookup by name, alpha2, alpha3 (all case insensitive)::

>>> mobile_codes.alpha3("CAN")
Country(name=u'Canada', alpha2='CA', alpha3='CAN', numeric='124', mcc='302')
>>> mobile_codes.alpha2("CA")
Country(name=u'Canada', alpha2='CA', alpha3='CAN', numeric='124', mcc='302')
>>> mobile_codes.name('canada')
Country(name=u'Canada', alpha2='CA', alpha3='CAN', numeric='124', mcc='302')

Lookup operators by mcc (returns a list of all operators)::

>>> mobile_codes.operators('302')
[Operator(mcc='302', mnc='220', brand='Telus', operator=u'Telus'),
 Operator(mcc='302', mnc='221', brand='Telus', operator=u'Telus'),...

Lookup operator by mcc and Mobile Network Code (MNC)::

>>> mobile_codes.mcc_mnc('722', '070')
Operator(mcc='722', mnc='070', brand='Movistar', operator=u'Movistar')

All lookups raise a KeyError if the requested value is not found.
