Fields extraction example (valid for td1, td2, td3 and visas)

from mrz.checker.td1 import TD1CodeChecker, get_country

td1_check = TD1CodeChecker("IDLIEID98754015<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<\n"
                           "8205122M1906224LIE<<<<<<<<<<<6\n"

Installation:

From Pypi repo (It may not be the latest version):

pip install mrz 

Cloning this repo (It may not work fine):

git clone https://github.com/davidix/mrz-lib.git
cd mrz
sudo python3 setup.py install

Features:

• Transliteration of special Latin characters (acutes, tildes, diaeresis, graves, circumflex, etc)
• Arabic chars transliteration
• Several variations of Cyrillic added: Serbian, Macedonian, Belarusian, Ukrainian and Bulgarian
• Transliteration of modern Greek (experimental)
• Transliteration of modern Hebrew (without vowels) (experimental)
• Generation of the country code from its name in English (Ex.: "Netherlands" -> "NLD")
• Name truncation detection
• Error report, warnings report and full report in Checker.
• Possibility that warnings compute as errors using compute_warnings keyword in Checker.
• Possibility of disabling checks for country code, nationality and type of document, allowing to use 3-letter-codes not included in the countries dictionary and to use document_type codes without restrictions in Generator.
• Added new checks for periods of time in Checker.
• Visas support
• Fields extraction in checker (name, surname, country, sex, etc) (version 0.5.0)

TODO:

• Automatic name truncation in Generator
• Possibility of disabling checks for country code, nationality, type of document and the others fields in Checker.
• Add logging

IMPORTANT:

• MRZ is a Python module to be used as library in other programs. So, its intended audience are developers. MRZ will never have a user interface nor will have CLI support. (Of course.. if someone wants, can do it) However, if someone is curious and wants to generate or check the mrz code of a passport or ID card, can modify any of the examples.
