        Django Countries
        ================
        
        A Django application that provides country choices for use with forms, flag
        icons static files, and a country field for models.
        
        Installation
        =============================
        
        1. ``pip install django-countries``
        2. Add ``django_countries`` to ``INSTALLED_APPS``
        
        
        CountryField
        ============
        
        A country field for Django models that provides all ISO 3166-1 countries as
        choices.
        
        ``CountryField`` is based on Django's ``CharField``, providing choices
        corresponding to the official ISO 3166-1 list of countries (with a default
        ``max_length`` of 2).
        
        Consider the following model using a ``CountryField``::
        
            from django.db import models
            from django_countries.fields import CountryField
        
            class Person(models.Model):
                name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
                country = CountryField()
        
        Any ``Person`` instance will have a ``country`` attribute that you can use to
        get details of the person's country::
        
            >>> person = Person(name='Chris', country='NZ')
            >>> person.country
            Country(code='NZ')
            >>> person.country.name
            'New Zealand'
            >>> person.country.flag
            '/static/flags/nz.gif'
        
        This object (``person.country`` in the example) is a ``Country`` instance,
        which is described below.
        
        Use ``blank_label`` to set the label for the initial blank choice shown in
        forms::
        
            country = CountryField(blank_label='(select country)')
        
        The ``Country`` object
        ----------------------
        
        An object used to represent a country, instanciated with a two character
        country code.
        
        It can be compared to other objects as if it was a string containing the
        country code and when evaluated as text, returns the country code.  
        
        name
          Contains the full country name.
        
        flag
          Contains a URL to the flag.
        
        alpha3
          The three letter country code for this country.
        
        numeric
          The numeric country code for this country (as an integer).
        
        numeric_padded
          The numeric country code as a three character 0-padded string.
        
        ``CountrySelectWidget``
        -----------------------
        
        A widget is included that can show the flag image after the select box
        (updated with JavaScript when the selection changes).
        
        When you create your form, you can use this custom widget like normal::
        
            from django_countries.widgets import CountrySelectWidget
        
            class PersonForm(forms.ModelForm):
                class Meta:
                    model = models.Person
                    fields = ('name', 'country')
                    widgets = {'country': CountrySelectWidget}
        
        
        Get the countries from Python
        =============================
        
        Use the ``django_countries.countries`` object instance as an iterator of ISO
        3166-1 country codes and names (sorted by name).
        
        For example::
        
            >>> from django_countries import countries
            >>> dict(countries)['NZ']
            'New Zealand'
        
            >>> for code, name in list(countries)[:3]:
            ...     print("{name} ({code})".format(name=name, code=code))
            ...
            Afghanistan (AF)
            Åland Islands (AX)
            Albania (AL)
        
        Country names are translated using Django's standard ``ugettext``.

        Customization
        =============
        
        Customize the country list
        --------------------------
        
        Country names are taken from the official ISO 3166-1 list. If your project
        requires the use of alternative names, the inclusion or exclusion of specific
        countries then use the ``COUNTRIES_OVERRIDE`` setting.
        
        A dictionary of names to override the defaults.
        
        Note that you will need to handle translation of customised country names.
        
        Setting a country's name to ``None`` will exclude it from the country list.
        For example::
        
            COUNTRIES_OVERRIDE = {
                'NZ': _('Middle Earth'),
                'AU': None
            }
        
        If you have a specific list of countries that should be used, use
        ``COUNTRIES_ONLY``::
        
            COUNTRIES_ONLY = {
                'NZ': _('Middle Earth'),
                'AU': _('Desert'),
            }
        
        
        Show certain countries first
        ----------------------------
        
        Provide a list of country codes as the ``COUNTRIES_FIRST`` setting and they
        will be shown first in the countries list (in the order specified) before all
        the alphanumerically sorted countries.
        
        By default, these 'first' countries are not repeated again in the
        alphanumerically sorted list. If you would like them to be repeated, set the
        ``COUNTRIES_FIRST_REPEAT`` setting to ``True``.
        
        Finally, you can optionally separate these 'first' countries with an empty
        choice by providing the choice label as the ``COUNTRIES_FIRST_BREAK`` setting.
        
        
        Customize the flag URL
        ----------------------
        
        The ``COUNTRIES_FLAG_URL`` setting can be used to set the url for the flag
        image assets. It defaults to::
        
          COUNTRIES_FLAG_URL = 'flags/{code}.gif'
        
        The URL can be relative to the STATIC_URL setting, or an absolute URL.
        
        The location is parsed using Python's string formatting and is passed the
        following arguments:
        
            * code
            * code_upper
        
        For example: ``COUNTRIES_FLAG_URL = 'flags/16x10/{code_upper}.png'``
        
        No checking is done to ensure that a static flag actually exists.
        
        Alternatively, you can specify a different URL on a specific ``CountryField``::
        
            class Person(models.Model):
                name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
                country = CountryField(
                    countries_flag_url='//flags.example.com/{code}.png')

        Change Log
        ==========
        
        This log shows interesting changes that happen for each version, latest
        versions first. It can be assumed that translations have been updated each
        release (and any new translations added).

          specific countries to be shown before the entire alphanumeric list.
        
        * Add a ``blank_label`` argument to ``CountryField`` to allow customization of
          the label shown in the initial blank choice shown in the select widget.
        
        Version 3.1.1 (15 Jan 2015)

        * Field descriptor now returns ``None`` if no country matches (*reverted in v3.0.1*)
        
        Version 3.0.1 (27 Oct 2014)
        ---------------------------
        
        * Revert descriptor to always return a Country object.
