Hi,

Thanks for this. What's the proper way to use these in any project? As it's just lists and no actual classes, I'm not entirely sure how to use them? Or am I missing something?

David.

I'm not sure how this is supposed to be used with Composer. I don't think there is a reliable way to get the location (directory) of the data.

The simplest way around this is with an auto-loaded class that can return the directory the data is located. Would you accept a PR with this addition?

Edit: See my fork.

Union of Soviet Socialist Republics... you are kidding!

Thanks for snippet but after this (USSR) I will need to check each country if it is not a joke.

$ ./console build

Fatal error: Class 'Locale' not found in /home/gadelat/tmp/country-list/vendor/symfony/locale/Symfony/Component/Locale/Locale.php on line 15

Hey I have a regular Ubuntu stable release and I can't update your package because of PHP requirements. Is there a reason why 7.1 and not 7.0 ? Thanks

Hey @umpirsky

I've finished the staled PR #99 by adding the requested exception for the file loader. Let me know if you need anything else.

Cheers, Peter

Fx.

If I had chosen russia, I would not be able to find my own country again.

So I would say it would be nice to have 1 file, with each country it is own language.

Fx Germany = Deutschland Mexico = Mexicanos Denmark = Danmark Russia = Российская

maybe put it in country/general/country.*

In your composer file you are using ~5.4, which causes composer to fail when using PHP7. I assume there is not reason that the package should not be used on PHP7? If not I suggest to change to >=5.4

Error when running composer:

umpirsky/country-list dev-master requires php ~5.4 -> your PHP version (7.0.2) does not satisfy that requirement

Hello, there are 4 missing countries in French version

BQ => Bonaire, Saint-Eustache et Saba CW => Curaçao SS => Sud Soudan SX => Sint Maarten

Thanks

This is a very good resource. It can be used for Registration forms and other purposes. It would be very good, if the country calling codes could be as well added to this list.

Moreover, a string-array format for Android XML would be very good as well.

I have written a library that depends on country-list through composer and packagist. Now because there is no tagged release of country-list all projects that depend on my library must add "minimum-stability": "dev" to their composer.json.

Adding a tag would solve this for me. Hope it's not to much trubble...

The NPM package (https://www.npmjs.com/package/@umpirsky/country-list) was removed because it apparently "contained malicious code". Clicking the link for more information on that page just gives a 404 though, so I couldn't find any more details. Does anyone know why this happened or if the package will ever be added back to NPM?

Since my raised issue on #115 seems not going anywhere I decided by myself to contribute.

But the readme isn't very detailed to how the countries list is generated.

Can you please update the readme.md?

Thank you

The United Kingdom in the most of countries around the is known as the UK as well.

But the UK it's a standard for the whole EU and some other countries in the Asia and middle-east (e.g. India, United Arab Emirates, and most countries was a UK colony in the history).

The year is 2019, those refusing to use anything but ASCII should be the one to suffer, not the 99% of people whose systems are able to handle UTF-8. So instead of escaping all non ASCII characters on the data, they really should be just in plain, pretty, readable UTF-8.

One might also consider pretty printing the json data.

With JS frameworks, and more generally REST APIs/HTTP requests, the current JSON structures are not much help, since we can't programmatically target keys.

How about this structure?

[
    { 
        id: 'AF', 
        value:'Afghanistan' 
    },
    {
        id: 'ZA', 
        value:'Afrique du Sud' 
    },
...
]

Hi, I didn't found the the license explanation at your README file. I just found it on your composer file. Can you add your MIT license explanation on it? maybe just some enhancement to make us more clearly to understand. Thank you.
