Locode

The Locode gem gives you the ability to lookup UN/LOCODE codes. You can read more about the UN/LOCODE specifications here: wiki.

All data used by this gem has been taken from the UN Centre for Trade Facilitation and E-business official website. No guarantees for the accuracy or up-to-dateness are given.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'locode'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install locode

Find Locations whose full name or full name without diacritics matches the search string

Locode.find_by_name('Göteborg')
#=> [<Locode::Location: 'SE GOT'>]

Find Locations that partially match the Search String. This means you can search by just the country code or a whole LOCODE.

Locode.find_by_locode('US')
#=> [<Locode::Location: 'US NYC'>,>
     <Locode::Location: 'US LAX'>, ... ]

You can also retrieve Locode's by the different functions, for example:

Locode.seaports()
#=> [<Locode::Location: 'DE HAM'>, ..]

There are a lot of locations so you can also limit the amount of locations returned by passing a amount:

Locode.inland_clearance_depots(1)
#=> [<Locode::Location: 'DE HAM'>]

These are the possible function calls:

• seaports(limit)
• rail_terminals(limit)
• road_terminals(limit)
• airport(limit)
• postal_exchange_offices(limit)
• inland_clearance_depots(limit)
• fixed_transport_functions(limit)
• border_crossing_functions(limit)
