intlCountries

A PHP 7.0+ internationalization library and services for getting all the

  • world countries,
  • country states,
  • country's currency/currencies,
  • symbols, locale and
  • languages.

It also includes:

  • Number Formatter,
  • Decimal Formatter and
  • Currency Formatter : currency formatter by country name, isoAlphaCode2 or isoAlphaCode3.

I am not going to bore you with lots of write-up to justify why you should or should not use this library as I strongly believe nobody says no to problem solving tools. So, here are the example as it can be used to solve internationalization problems:

use Emma\Countries\Countries;

//VERY IMPORTANT - All function that returns an object also has there corresponding function that returns an array data set.

/**
* GET ALL
*/
//Get all - COUNTRIES
$countries = Countries::getCountryRepository()->findAllCountry();

//Get all - CURRENCIES - countries and there currency(s) information
$currencies = Countries::getCurrencyRepository()->findAllCountryAndCurrency();

//Get all - LANGUAGE - locales of all countries. Data incliudes: isoAlphaCode2, isoAlphaCode3, locales, defaultLocale, language of countries.
$locales = Countries::getLocaleRepository()->findAllLocales();


/**
* FIND SOMETHING SPECIFIC
*/ 
//Get a particular country locales information - By countryName OR country isoAlphaCode2 OR country isoAlphaCode2. 
$countryNameORisoAlphaCode2ORisoAlphaCode2 = 'US'; //OR USD OR United States of America
$countryLocales = Countries::getLocaleRepository()->findLocale(string $countryNameORisoAlphaCode2ORisoAlphaCode2)

//Get a particular country information - By countryName OR country isoAlphaCode2 OR country isoAlphaCode2. 
//Data includes: name, all states in that country, currencies, default_country of that country, etc...
$countryNameORisoAlphaCode2ORisoAlphaCode2 = 'US'; //OR USD OR United States of America
$countryInformation = (Countries::getCountryRepository()->findCountry($countryNameORisoAlphaCode2ORisoAlphaCode2));

//Get a particular country currency detailed information. For example:
$code = 'NGN';
$currency = (Countries::getCurrencyRepository()->findCurrencyDetails($code));

/**
* FORMATTERS
*/ 
//Format Currency using countryName OR country isoAlphaCode2 OR country isoAlphaCode2
echo $formatedAmount = Countries::formatCurrencyByCountry(5.0, 'NG');
echo $formatedAmount = Countries::formatCurrencyByCountry(5.0, 'NGA');
echo $formatedAmount = Countries::formatCurrencyByCountry(5.0, 'Nigeria');

//Similarly format Decimal Number By countryName OR country isoAlphaCode2 OR country isoAlphaCode2
echo $formatedAmount = Countries::formatDecimalByCountry(5.0, 'NG');
echo $formatedAmount = Countries::formatDecimalByCountry(5.0, 'NGA');
echo $formatedAmount = Countries::formatDecimalByCountry(5.0, 'Nigeria');

//VERY IMPORTANT - All function that returns an object also has there corresponding function that returns an array data set.

If you check the Countries class, there are lots functions you can use for so many different internationalization. The example above are a few of how useful this library is to you. :)
