Best way to get ISO 3166-1:2006 Alpha-3 code
Hi,
I’m using 2-char country codes from `Cldr.Territory.country_codes/0` in Cldr.Territory package, but I need to get the corresponding 3-letter country code as specified in ISO 3166-1:2006 Alpha-3 code.
Is there a quick way to transform those using the Cldr package family or should I use another package or maybe fallback to a hardcoded map and fetch it from there? e.g.
@countries %{
US: “USA”,
MX: “MEX”
…
}def country_code_alpha_3(country), do: Map.get(@contries, country)
Thanks in advance,
Miguel

I’ve published ex_cldr version 2.47.0 that adds Cldr.Config.territory_codes/0. I’ve also opened a PR to ex_cldr_territories for @Schultzer to consider.
For now you can use the new function as:
@territory_codes Cldr.Config.territory_codes()
def territory_codes do
@territory_codes
end
The functions in Cldr.Config all read, decode and normalise data so you only want to do that once, at compile time, hence the module attribute approach.
Example
iex> Cldr.Config.territory_codes()

Perfectly fine - it’s been on the “must get around to this” list for a while. So I may as well get around to it
I should have something you can work with in the next 24 hours.

CLDR does contain ISO 3166 Alpha 3 mappings but they aren’t exposed in ex_cldr_territories iirc.
I’ll take a look at working up a PR for this in the next day.
