Installation

Put this line into database\seeds\DatabaseSeeder.php in run function

$this->call(\Lwwcas\LaravelCountries\Database\Seeders\LcDatabaseSeeder::class);

php artisan migrate

Usage

You can access all the information in the database with a simple query

use  Lwwcas\LaravelCountries\Models\Country;

Country::whereIso('BR')->first();
Country::whereIsoAlpha3('BRA')->first();
Country::whereSlug('brasil')->first();

How to integrate into my project?

In your table you can simply add the foreign key.

Only this will allow you to make a relationship with the country table

$table->integer('lc_country_id')->unsigned();

Being optional, but strongly recommended, you should use the Foreign Key Constraints that Laravel provides.

$table->foreign('lc_country_id')->references('id')->on('lc_countries');

Example of implementation in the users table

To make a relationship with the regions table

$table->tinyInteger('lc_region_id')->unsigned();
$table->foreign('lc_region_id')->references('id')->on('lc_regions');

Take a good look at the Model and see the package makes it easy
