The DAD Node library is the perfect companion to quickly bootstrap address data in your application. DAD provides real addresses from all over the world with a consistent data structure so you can spend less time looking up addresses and address rules and more time coding. Rigorously tested with 2000+ tests, rest easy knowing your address data is uniform, accurate, and performant.

## Install

```bash

# Install globally for CLI implementation

npm i -g dad-tool

# Install locally for package implementation

npm i dad-tool

```

## Address Data

Address objects will look like the [sample below](#sample-address-object). The data type of each field on an address object is a `string`. A list of addresses is an `array` of `json` objects.

Attempts have been made to verify addresses and ensure that street1, city, state, and zip are present on all records. Some lists may be shorter than others to avoid complexity or because of a lack of accurate data.

The following files can be found in the `data` directory.

## Usage

### CLI Implementation

```bash

# Returns a random address from a list to console

dad US_UT

```

### Package Implementation

```javascript

const dad = require('dad-tool');

// Grab a random UT address

const address = dad.random('US_UT');

console.log(address);

// Alternatively, grab the entire UT list

const addresses = dad.list('US_UT');

console.log(addresses);

// Print to console or do whatever you'd like with the address data

console.log(address.city);

// Get the list of all ISO country codes

const isoData = dad.isoCountryCodes();

for (let i = 0; i < isoData.length; i++) {

  console.log(JSON.stringify(isoData[i], null, 4));

}

```

### Sample Address Object

A sample address object will look like the following:

```json

{

  "street1": "231 N 1200 W",

  "street2": "UNIT 104",

  "city": "OREM",

  "state": "UT",

  "zip": "84057",

  "country": "US"

}

```

### Sample ISO Country Object

```json

{

  "country": "United States of America",

  "alpha_2_code": "US",

  "alpha_3_code": "USA"

}

```

## Development

```bash

# Lint the project

npm run lint

# Run tests

npm run test

# Run test coverage

npm run coverage

# Update the DAD data files

git submodule init && git submodule update --remote dad

```
