GB country code not supported

[sebastian-raubach]

It seems that you have individual codes for Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland, which is nice, but the overall "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" country code you're using is GB-UKM or rather the overall code for GB doesn't seem to be supported as listed under ISO 3166-1 alpha-2, see here: https://www.iban.com/country-codes

• functional bug
• able to consistently reproduce

Expected Behavior

Using GB as the country code should result in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland flag to be shown.

Current Behavior

Currently, using GB-UKM is the closest match.

Possible Solution

Change the country code to reflect the ISO standard.

Steps to Reproduce

1 Go here: https://flagpack.xyz/docs/flag-index/
2 Search for GB
3 Find GB-* instead of GB.

Context

I'm getting the country codes from a database according to the ISO standard. Therefore a specific hack for GB isn't something that I'd want to add.

Your Environment

• Version used: 1.1.2

In addition the Alpha 3 variant GBR is also not supported.

Using GBR-UKM and it's variants were our solution to both support the flag for United Kingdom aswell as England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. These are part of the ISO 3166 subset, ISO 3166-2:GB which we are planning to continue to support in our release of Flagpack. However I do concede that given our ISO 3166 policy we should definitely support both the ISO 3166 alongside the 3166-2:GB to cover all bases. This is especially true now that we're working on having Flagpack treeshakable. You can expect these changes to be part of the next major release of Flagpack.
