Countries

Usage

Laravel Countries is a package for Laravel, providing Almost ISO 3166_2, 3166_3, currency, Capital and more for all countries including states and cities .

Installation

You can install this package via Composer:

composer require kalimeromk/countries

Or form composer.json file

Add kalimeromk/countries to composer.json.

"kalimeromk/countries": "*"

Run composer update to pull down the latest version of Country List.

Edit app/config/app.php and add the provider and filter

'providers' => [
    'Kalimeromk\Countries\CountriesServiceProvider',
]

Now add the alias.

'aliases' => [
    'Countries' => 'Kalimeromk\Countries\CountriesServiceProvider',
]

Model

You can start by publishing the configuration. This is an optional step, it contains the table names for needed table and does not need to be altered. If the default names countries,states,cities suits you, leave it. Otherwise, run the following command

$ php artisan vendor:publish --tag=countries-config

If need to make some changes to migrate file use flowing command to generate the migration file:

$ php artisan vendor:publish --tag=countries-migration

It will generate the migration in databases/migrations dir

In the package we have tree models Country,State,City with needed relation to be used out of the box but if changes just extend models :)

To finish everything need to seed the data into the table, so 1st need to run

$ php artisan vendor:publish --tag=countries-seeders

and add this code to DatabaseSeeder class

//Seed the countries
 $this->call(CountriesSeeder::class);
 $this->call(StatesSeeder::class);
 $this->call(CitiesSeeder::class);

You may now run it with the artisan migrate command:

$ php artisan migrate --seed

After running this command the filled countries table will be available

Testing

Run the tests with:

vendor/bin/phpunit
