IANA's official repository is in record-jar format and is hard to parse. This project provides neatly organized JSON files representing that data.
See data/
for all the JSON files available. The registry.json
file contains all records in a flat array and meta.json
contains its metadata. There's a separate JSON file for each 'scope' (e.g. macrolanguage.json
) and 'type' (e.g. language.json
). These files contain JSON objects keyed by tag or subtag and with the index integer for the corresponding entry in registry.json
as a value. This makes lookups fast.
This project will be updated as the registry changes. Non-breaking updates will result in the patch version number being bumped.
Run make update
to force an update from the latest official IANA-hosted version. The registry file format is converted to JSON automatically and the files in data/
are updated.
If there are changes, please make a pull request.
See language-tags for a Javascript API.
The JSON database is licensed an Open Data Commons Attribution License (ODC-BY).
Comments, feedback and suggestions are welcome. Please feel free to raise an issue or pull request. Enjoy.
