Source Data from CLDR

Data is from the ICU’s CLDR project when is downloaded in XML format. For ease of consumption it is then converted to json format and stored in the /data directory of the ex_cldr project which is typically in your project /deps directory.

Downloading updates to CLDR

A Mix task, cldr.download is available for downloading the latest CLDR repository. This task performs the following:

• Download the CLDR latest repository into the /downloads directory of /deps/cldr

• Adds /downloads to .gitignore

• unzips the downloaded files

• Uses the downloaded java app ldml2json app to translate the xml files to json in the /deps/cldr/data directory

• Removes redundant package.json and bower.json files from the /deps/cldr/data directory

Note

This Mix tasks is intended primarily for the use of the Cldr maintainer and not intended for general use.
