A typst package to display country flags in your Typst documents. This first version is extremely simple, as the only two arguments is the country and the height of the flag to display in the document.
Loading the package
#import "@preview/flagada:0.1.0" : *
Calling a flag
You need to know the ISO 3166-1 code of the country (string of 2 characters) to display.
Either call the flag as with the long call version flag-zz() or short call flag("ZZ"), zz or "ZZ" being the ISO 3166-1 code.
Please note that long call version, like flag-zz(), must use lowercase of the ISO 3166-1 code. Short version can use both lowercase or uppercase of the ISO 3166-1
Example
Hello people coming from #flag-fr(), #flag-eu(), #flag("DE") and more
Modifying the height
By default the flag height is 0.65em, which is usually the default text size.
To modify the height, include the height parameter in your call.
Either call the flag as flag-zz(height:6em) or flag("ZZ",height:6em), zz or "ZZ" being the ISO 3166-1 code.
Example for height
Hello people coming from #flag-be(height: 1em), #flag-fr(height: 2em), #flag-eu(height:3em), #flag("DE",height: 2em), #flag("LU",height: 1em) and more
Comments
Coat of arms
Some flags include coat of arms or other specific components. As ususally these components are hard to build in Typst, a SVG version from wikimedia is used. The coat of arms for countries are in directory coat of arms/
Example of coat of arms
In this example, coats of arms are used for Spanish and Portuguese flags (but not for European flag as stars can be constructed or displayed from an unicode like U+2605)
Width not updatable
For the moment, the official format defined by each country has been used to build their flag (e.g. 1:2 fro GB, 2:3 for FR, 10:19 for US …). No possibility to modify the width has been considered. As a consequence, when you display two or more flags close to each other at the same height, their width might not be equal for each flag.
