A library to map country names to ISO codes.

Project description

# countrynames

This library helps with the mapping of country names to their respective
ISO 3166-1 alpha-2, alpha-3, and numeric codes or official names. The idea is
to incorporate common names for countries, and even some limited misspellings,
as they occur in source data.

## Usage

```python
import countrynames

assert 'DE' == countrynames.to_code('Germany')
assert 'DE' == countrynames.to_code('Bundesrepublik Deutschland')
assert 'DE' == countrynames.to_code('DE')
assert 'Germany' == countrynames.to_name('Deutschland')
assert 'Federal Republic of Germany' == countrynames.to_official_name('Deutschland')
assert 'DEU' == countrynames.to_alpha_3('Germany')
assert '004' == countrynames.to_numeric('Afghanistan')
```

## Non-standard countries

* ``XK`` - Kosovo
* ``EU`` - European Union
