How to Use

To validate personal identification documents, use the isValidIdDoc function. It takes three parameters:

• idDoc (string): The identification document number to validate.
• country (string): The alpha-2 country code following ISO 3166-1 (e.g., "ES" for Spain, "FR" for France).
• idDocType (string, optional): The type of identification document to validate. For a list of supported identification document types, please refer to the expanded view of the Supported Countries. If this parameter is not passed, the function will check if the passed id doc is valid for any of the supported id docs for the country.

Example Usage:

// Import the id-doc-validator library
const { isValidIdDoc } = require("id-doc-validator");

const idDoc = "your_identification_number";
const country = "ES"; // Country code
const idDocType = "DNI"; // Type of identification document

const isValid = isValidIdDoc(idDoc, country, idDocType);

if (isValid) {
  console.log("The identification document is valid.");
} else {
  console.log("The identification document is not valid.");
}
