Installation

Package Managers

npm install @koshmoney/countries
yarn add @koshmoney/countries
pnpm add @koshmoney/countries

Module Formats

The library ships in both ESM and CommonJS formats:

// ESM (recommended)
import { country, subdivision } from '@koshmoney/countries';
 
// CommonJS
const { country, subdivision } = require('@koshmoney/countries');

Selective Imports

For optimal bundle size, import only the modules you need:

Core Modules (main bundle)

// All core modules (~60KB gzipped)
import { country, subdivision, postalCode } from '@koshmoney/countries';
 
// Individual core modules
import { country } from '@koshmoney/countries';
import { subdivision } from '@koshmoney/countries';
import { postalCode } from '@koshmoney/countries';

Specialized Modules (subpath imports)

import { currency } from '@koshmoney/countries/currency';
import { dialCode } from '@koshmoney/countries/dialCode';
import { geography } from '@koshmoney/countries/geography';
import { membership } from '@koshmoney/countries/membership';

Per-Country Subdivision Data

Load subdivision data for specific countries only:

// Only US subdivisions (~1.5KB instead of ~55KB)
import '@koshmoney/countries/subdivision/US';
import { whereCode } from '@koshmoney/countries/subdivision';
 
whereCode('US-CA');  // Works
whereCode('GB-ENG'); // Returns null (GB not imported)

TypeScript Configuration

Subpath imports work automatically with modern TypeScript settings:

  • moduleResolution: "node16"
  • moduleResolution: "nodenext"
  • moduleResolution: "bundler"

For moduleResolution: "node", the library includes typesVersions fallback.

Requirements

  • Node.js: 16.0.0 or higher
  • TypeScript: 4.5+ (for subpath imports)
  • Bundler: Any modern bundler (Webpack 5+, Vite, Rollup, esbuild, tsup)
