world_airports is a lightweight ruby gem that allow you to get several information such as airport name, location, city and country based on an IATA code.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'world_airports'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install world_airports
require 'world_airports'
WorldAirports.iata("CGK")
The code above will return a class of WorldAirports::Airport, on which instance you can invoke these methods:
name
location
iata
icao
city
country
ICAO is not guaranteed to be available for all the data, but other fields are.
Please don't hesitate to contact me, I have twitter @adamvim, for anything: reporting bug, missing airport, etc.
