country-in-text-detector/examples.js

Module for detection of countries in given text. Detects countries by international and local name, some of them in more language mutations. Uses also names of large cities to derive related countries.

var countryDetector = require("./index.js");

// handles countries in text, result is array of matches (objects)
var result = countryDetector.detect("Hello, I come from Germany!");
/*
[
	{ iso3166: 'DE', name: 'Germany', type: 'country', matches: [ 'Germany' ] }
]
*/

// handles large cities in text
var cities = countryDetector.detect("I just moved from Austin, TX to NYC.");
/*
[
	{ iso3166: 'US-NY', name: 'New York City', countryName: 'New York',  type: 'city', matches: [ 'NYC' ] },
	{ iso3166: 'US-TX', name: 'Austin', countryName: 'Texas', type: 'city', matches: [ 'Austin, TX' ] }
]
*/

// handles local/international names
var local = countryDetector.detect("RU: Я родился в России. EN: I was born in Russia.");
/*
[
	{ iso3166: 'RU', name: 'Russia', type: 'country', matches: [ 'России', 'Russia' ] }
]
*/

// handles frequent language mutations
var mutations = countryDetector.detect("FR: J'ai vécu en Italie. EN: I lived in Italy.");
/*
[
	{ iso3166: 'IT', name: 'Italy', type: 'country', matches: [ 'Italie', 'Italy' ] }
]
*/

// handles special characters and emojis
var special = countryDetector.detect("Adoro❤️ o 🇧🇷Rio~de~Janeiro💃🏼 !");
/*
[
	{ iso3166: 'BR', name: 'Rio de Janeiro', countryName: 'Brazil', type: 'city', matches: [ 'Rio~de~Janeiro' ] }
]
