Data Providers
- FileDataProvider: FAST (default) (loading data from cache-files)
- LiveDataProvider: SLOW (fetching up-to-date data from svn repos)
Development
- update FileDataProvider caches after each code-change to make changes available to users
rake write_cache_for_file_data_provider - FileDataProvider tests might fail if caches are not updates
Alphabetical localized sorting
If you would like to have the countries list sorted alphabetically in different languages there is a gem called sort_alphabetical for that.
TODO
- include other language/country code formats (3-letter codes...) ?
- parse list of files on isocodes for write_cache instead of hardcoding country-specific ones
- rake task that checks that the readme is updated with language/country counters
