# Countries
Countries is a collection of all sorts of useful information for every country in the [ISO 3166](https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166) standard.
It is based on the data from the ruby gem [Countries](https://github.com/hexorx/countries).

## Installation
Add countries as a dependency in your ```mix.exs``` file.

```Elixir
def deps do
	[ { :countries, "~> 1.0" } ]
end
```

After you are done, run ```mix deps.get``` in your shell to fetch and compile countries.

## Usage

Find country by attribute.

```Elixir
country = Countries.filter_by(:alpha2, "DE")
# [%Countries.Country{alpha2: 'DE', alpha3: 'DEU', continent: 'Europe',
#		country_code: '49', currency: 'EUR', ...]

countries = Countries.filter_by(:region, "Europe")
Enum.count(countries)
# 51
```

Get all Countries.

```Elixir
countries = Countries.all
Enum.count(countries)
# 250
```
