jacklaurencegaray/country-locale-map

Country Locale Map

Provides easy conversion between country codes and names as well as a default locale for each country. Includes fuzzy matching for country name lookups.

Usage

const clm = require('country-locale-map');
clm.getAlpha3ByAlpha2('CA'); //returns 'CAN' 

If you would like locales to be returned with - instead of_ you can set an environment variable

CLM_MODE='INTL' in a .env file using dotenv just make sure that dotenv is required before requiring the country local map library

if true is passed for fuzzy these functions will do a fuzzy match if it can't find an exact match eg:

clm.getCountryByName('Candaa', true);

/*returns
