Magento2 How to Get Country Code Collection

To get country list data, you need to create instance of Country collection model `Magento\Directory\Model\ResourceModel\Country\CollectionFactory`. Once instance is created, you can load it by current store.
<?php namespace Knowthemage\Hello\Block; use Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template\Context; use Magento\Directory\Model\ResourceModel\Country\CollectionFactory; class Country extends \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template { /** * @var CollectionFactory */ protected $_countryCollectionFactory; /** * Country constructor. * @param CollectionFactory $countryCollectionFactory * @param Context $context * @param array $data */ public function __construct( CollectionFactory $countryCollectionFactory, Context $context, array $data = [] ) { parent::__construct($context, $data); $this->_countryCollectionFactory = $countryCollectionFactory; } /** * Get Country collection * * @return mixed */ public function getCountryCollection() { return $this->_countryCollectionFactory->create()->loadByStore(); } }
