🚀 Quick Start

Add to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  mena: ^1.0.1

Import and use:

import 'package:mena/mena.dart';

void main() {
  // Find country by ISO code
  final palestine = MENA.getBy(query: 'ps', key: MenaKeys.code);
  print(palestine?.country.englishName); // "Palestine"
  print(palestine?.country.arabicName);  // "فلسطين"

  // Search by name
  final egypt = MENA.getBy(query: 'مصر', key: MenaKeys.arabicName); // Arabic search
  print(egypt?.currency.code); // "EGP"

  // Or search explicitly in English
  final egyptEn = MENA.getBy(query: 'Egypt', key: MenaKeys.englishName);

  // Find by phone code
  final palestineByPhone = MENA.getBy(query: '970', key: MenaKeys.dialCode);
  print(palestineByPhone?.dialCodeWithPlus); // "+970"

  // Get Palestine flag URLs
  print(palestine?.getSvgUrl); // SVG flag
  print(palestine?.getEmojiUrl(EmojiSize.size48x36)); // 48x36 PNG
  print(palestine?.getImageUrl(ImageSize.w160, ImageType.png)); // 160px PNG
}

🏴 Flag System

MENA provides the most comprehensive flag system available for Dart packages, offering multiple formats and sizes to suit any use case:

Flag Formats

Format	Method	Description	Best For
SVG	getSvgUrl	Scalable vector graphics	High-quality displays, print
PNG (Emoji)	getEmojiUrl(EmojiSize)	Emoji-style flags, exact dimensions	UI icons, emoji displays
JPEG/PNG (Image)	getImageUrl(ImageSize, ImageType)	Flexible sizing, format choice	Web optimization, responsive design

Available Sizes

Emoji Sizes (PNG with exact dimensions)

24 predefined sizes maintaining 4:3 aspect ratio:

• Tiny: 16x12, 20x15, 24x18, 28x21, 32x24
• Small: 40x30, 48x36, 56x42, 64x48, 72x54
• Medium: 80x60, 96x72, 112x84, 128x96, 144x108

// SVG flag (scalable)
final svgFlag = palestine?.getSvgUrl;
// "https://flagcdn.com/ps.svg"

// Emoji-style PNG flags
final smallEmoji = palestine?.getEmojiUrl(EmojiSize.size24x18);
// "https://flagcdn.com/24x18/ps.png"

final mediumEmoji = palestine?.getEmojiUrl(EmojiSize.size48x36);
// "https://flagcdn.com/48x36/ps.png"

// Flexible image flags
final jpegFlag = palestine?.getImageUrl(ImageSize.w160);
// "https://flagcdn.com/w160/ps.jpg" (default JPEG)

final pngFlag = palestine?.getImageUrl(ImageSize.w160, ImageType.png);
