Introduction

This rust crate is a port of the php package socrates.

socrates-rs allows you to validate and retrieve personal data from National Identification Numbers across the world with the goal of eventually supporting as many countries in the world as possible.

Usage

Currently, due to a dependency on assoc_char_funcs, this crate requires rust nightly to run.

Two functions are available with socrates-rs:

  • validate_id which returns a boolean indicating if an id is valid in a specific country
  • extract_information which returns an Optional Citizen with information retrievable from the identifier (gender, date of birth, ...)

The list of supported countries is available via the Country::code enum.

Contributing

Did you find a problem in any of the algorithms? Do you know how to implement a country which we have missed? Are there any improvements that you think should be made to the codebase? Any help is appreciated! Take a look at our contributing guidelines.
