TODO

1. Improve performance by utilizing the OTP.
2. Add proper localization support.
3. Better Documentation [Module and Function docs]
4. Allow countries or regions to be extended in App
5. Publish to Hex.
6. Add Tests

1. Add worldly to your list of dependencies in mix.exs.

   def deps do
     [
       {:yamerl, github: "yakaz/yamerl"},
       {:worldly, "~> 0.1.2"}
     ]
   end
   

2. Ensure worldly and yamerl is started before your application:

   def application do
     [applications: [:yamerl, :worldly]]
   end
   

3. Add worldly config data path in config/config.exs

   config :worldly, :data_path, Path.join(Mix.Project.build_path, "lib/worldly/priv/data")
   

4. You can also checkout a demo mix project showing use of worldly and its setup. Check README and commit-history (4 commits only :) )

Disclaimer: - Locale need to be added for all corresponding entries in countries or regions to provide name and other relevant information. It might crash if corresponding locale mapping missing.

1. To get the list of countries use Worldly.Country.all
2. You can get country by name using Worldly.Country.with_name name_in_locale
3. You can get country by code using Worldly.Country.with_code alpha_2_code or Worldly.Country.with_code alpha_3_code
4. To get the regions for a country, use Worldly.Region.regions_for country_or_region, where country_or_region can be a country struct Worldy.Country or region struct Worldy.Region
5. You can also whether sub-regions exist for country or a region, use Worldly.Region.regions_for country_or_region, where country_or_region can be a country struct Worldy.Country or region struct Worldy.Region
