Country_Select

Provides a simple helper to get an HTML select list of countries. The list of countries comes from the ISO 3166 standard. While it is a relatively neutral source of country names, it may still offend some users.

Users are strongly advised to evaluate the suitability of this list given their user base.

Installation

Install as a gem using

gem install country_select

Or put the following in your Gemfile

gem 'country_select'

Example

Simple use supplying model and attribute as parameters:

country_select("user", "country_name")

Supplying priority countries to be placed at the top of the list:

country_select("user", "country_name", [ "United Kingdom", "France", "Germany" ])

Specifying which country to be selected: United Kingdom will be selected.

country_select("user", "country_name", [ "+United Kingdom+", "France", "Germany" ])
