**Phil-Address** is an npm module that provides functions to fetch Philippine address data—including regions, provinces, cities/municipalities/sub‑municipalities, and barangays—from a public API. It also implements in‑memory caching (with TTL) and offers a helper for constructing a full address string. This allows you complete freedom to create your own user interfaces (dropdowns, autocompletes, etc.) for address selection.

#### Note:
- [x] **Metro Manila** is included as a pseudo province for all cities and barangays for Region NCR.
- [x] New Region **Negros Island Region (NIR)** included.
- [x] API data uses the **PSGC-4Q-2024-Publication-Datafile**. _Link below_.


## Features

- **Fetch Regions:** Retrieve a list of regions.
- **Fetch Provinces:** Retrieve provinces for a given region code.
- **Fetch Cities:** Retrieve cities (or municipalities/sub‑municipalities) for a given province code.
- **Fetch Barangays:** Retrieve barangays for a given city code.
- **Caching:** Uses in‑memory caching with a TTL (default is 1 hour) to reduce redundant API calls.
- **Address Construction:** Provides a utility to build a full address string from individual parts.

## Usage

Since this module exports ES module functions, you can import them into your project and build your own UI components.

#### Example (ES Module)
```javascript
import { regions, provinces, cities, barangays, constructAddress } from 'phil-address';

(async () => {
  // Fetch regions and log the data
  const regionData = await regions();
  console.log('Regions:', regionData);

  // For demonstration, select the first region (replace with your UI logic)
  const selectedRegion = regionData[0];

  // Fetch provinces for the selected region (using its "psgcCode" as the code)
  const provincesData = await provinces(selectedRegion["psgcCode"]);
  console.log('Provinces:', provincesData);

  // Select the first province (replace with your UI logic)
  const selectedProvince = provincesData[0];

  // Fetch cities for the selected province
  const citiesData = await cities(selectedProvince.id);
  console.log('Cities:', citiesData);

  // Select the first city
  const selectedCity = citiesData[0];

  // Fetch barangays for the selected city
  const barangaysData = await barangays(selectedCity.id);
  console.log('Barangays:', barangaysData);

  // Select the first barangay
  const selectedBarangay = barangaysData[0];

  // Construct the full address
  const fullAddress = constructAddress({
    region: selectedRegion["name"],
    province: selectedProvince.name,
    city: selectedCity.name,
    barangay: selectedBarangay.name
  });
  console.log('Full Address:', fullAddress);
})();

```

#### Example (CommonJS)

```javascript
(async () => {
  const { regions, provinces, cities, barangays, constructAddress } = await import('phil-address');

  // Use the functions similarly:
  const regionData = await regions();
  // ...continue as shown in the ES Module example.
})();

```
