Experimental project

This is a sandbox project, which contains experimental code for developer use only.

Overview

Imports country/state/region names to a taxonomy from geonames.org

This module uses the "children" (http://www.geonames.org/export/place-hierarchy.html#children) function of geonames.org. This seems to just drill down by administration divisions, which may be different for each country.

Why I made this to work in the front end with javascript rather than with the batch API, I don't know. I must have been drunk that night.

You are probably better off not using this module. It was just a quick way to import countries to a taxonomy for a single site I did. One day I might rewrite it if I need it again

Requirements

none
