Usage

This library exports a default object that maps country codes to currency codes.

Available formats include UMD (therefore AMD and CommonJS) and ESM.

👉 Examples available in the folder examples.

TypeScript

From version 1.1.0 on, there are two union types available (TypeScript 3.4+ only):

  • Currencies, that contains all the currencies;
  • Countries, that contains all the countries.

Example using TypeScript on NodeJS:

  import countryToCurrency, { Currencies, Countries } from "country-to-currency";

Browser - without installing anything

Global:

<script crossorigin src="https://unpkg.com/country-to-currency" ></script>
<script>
  console.log( countryToCurrency ); // {AF: "AFN", AX: "EUR", ... }
  console.log( countryToCurrency[ 'US' ] ); // USD
  console.log( countryToCurrency[ 'DE' ] ); // EUR
  console.log( countryToCurrency[ 'BR' ] ); // BRL
</script>

ESM:

<script type="module" >
  import countryToCurrency from "https://unpkg.com/country-to-currency/index.esm.js";
  console.log( countryToCurrency[ 'US' ] ); // USD
</script>

NodeJS

const countryToCurrency = require( 'country-to-currency/index.cjs' ); // '/index.cjs' needed since version 2.0
console.log( countryToCurrency[ 'US' ] ); // USD

Deno

import countryToCurrency from "https://unpkg.com/country-to-currency/index.esm.js";
console.log( countryToCurrency[ 'US' ] ); // USD
