onomojo / i18n_country_select Goto Github PK

There is a select option for the "Unknown Region" with key "ZZ" available.
What is the purpose of this entry?

I'd propose to remove it as this breaks the intent to select a known country on earth. If the country is not known to the user, a blank option is enough to indicate this or the application should deal with it otherwise.

What do you think?

I believe there's currently no way to force a selected value besides the field value. It would be nice if options accepted selected: 'country_code', just like the regular select. I could work on a pull request for this, let me know.

This gem depends on the i18n gem as written in the Gemfile:

s.add_dependency('i18n', '~> 0.9.3')

While trying to update other components, we have the issue that as of now, i18n is at 1.8.2 which does not seem to be compatible here.

Any chance this could be resolved? Is there any breaking changes in i18n that would prevent loosing this dependency to something like s.add_dependency('i18n', '>= 0.9.3')

Thanks

Is there a reason why the countries that are included in the select is not in sync with the countries available in the i18n_country_select gem? The one I need included is AX, Åland Islands.
