OpenFlights loader

A Webpack loader for OpenFlights-formatted data

Summary

This Webpack loader allows you to load OpenFlights formatted data.

It is not produced by OpenFlights - check them out here and here!

1. Add loader to your Webpack config.

   webpack.config.js:

   module.exports = {
     module: {
       rules: [
         {
           test: /airports.dat$/i,
           loader: 'openflights-loader',
         },
       ],
     },
   }
   

2. Import and use. You can download data from here.

   import airports from './airports.dat'
   
   console.log(airports[0].name)
   

3. If using TypeScript, you may add the following declaration for typed imports:

   declare module '*/airports.dat' {
     import { Airport } from 'openflights-loader'
   
     const _default: Airport[]
     export default _default
   }
   

Note: This has been developed to suit my needs but additional use cases and contributions are very welcome.
