Regexp::Common::zip(3)               User Contributed Perl Documentation              Regexp::Common::zip(3)



NAME
       Regexp::Common::zip -- provide regexes for postal codes.

SYNOPSIS
           use Regexp::Common qw /zip/;

           while (<>) {
               /^$RE{zip}{Netherlands}$/   and  print "Dutch postal code\n";
           }

DESCRIPTION
       Please consult the manual of Regexp::Common for a general description of the works of this interface.

       Do not use this module directly, but load it via Regexp::Common.

       This module offers patterns for zip or postal codes of many different countries. They all have the
       form "$RE{zip}{Country}[{options}]".

       The following common options are used:

   "{-prefix=[yes|no|allow]}" and "{-country=PAT}".
       Postal codes can be prefixed with a country abbreviation. That is, a dutch postal code of 1234 AB can
       also be written as NL-1234 AB.  By default, all the patterns will allow the prefixes. But this can be
       changed with the "-prefix" option. With "-prefix=yes", the returned pattern requires a country
       prefix, while "-prefix=no" disallows a prefix. Any argument that doesn't start with a "y" or a "n"
       allows a country prefix, but doesn't require them.

       The prefixes used are, unfortunally, not always the same. Officially, ISO country codes need to be
       used, but the usage of CEPT codes (the same ones as used on cars) is common too. By default, each
       postal code will recognize a country prefix that's either the ISO standard or the CEPT code. That is,
       German postal codes may prefixed with either "DE" or "D". The recognized prefix can be changed with
       the "-country" option, which takes a (sub)pattern as argument. The arguments "iso" and "cept" are
       special, and indicate the language prefix should be the ISO country code, or the CEPT code.

       Examples:
        /$RE{zip}{Netherlands}/;
                  # Matches '1234 AB' and 'NL-1234 AB'.
        /$RE{zip}{Netherlands}{-prefix => 'no'}/;
                  # Matches '1234 AB' but not 'NL-1234 AB'.
        /$RE{zip}{Netherlands}{-prefix => 'yes'}/;
                  # Matches 'NL-1234 AB' but not '1234 AB'.

        /$RE{zip}{Germany}/;
                  # Matches 'DE-12345' and 'D-12345'.
        /$RE{zip}{Germany}{-country => 'iso'}/;
                  # Matches 'DE-12345' but not 'D-12345'.
        /$RE{zip}{Germany}{-country => 'cept'}/;
                  # Matches 'D-12345' but not 'DE-12345'.
        /$RE{zip}{Germany}{-country => 'GER'}/;
                  # Matches 'GER-12345'.

   "{-sep=PAT}"
       Some countries have postal codes that consist of two parts. Typically there is an official way of
       separating those parts; but in practise people tend to use different separators. For instance, if the
       official way to separate parts is to use a space, it happens that the space is left off. The "-sep"
       option can be given a pattern as argument which indicates what to use as a separator between the
       parts.

       Examples:
        /$RE{zip}{Netherlands}/;
                  # Matches '1234 AB' but not '1234AB'.
        /$RE{zip}{Netherlands}{-sep => '\s*'}/;
                  # Matches '1234 AB' and '1234AB'.

   $RE{zip}{Australia}
       Returns a pattern that recognizes Australian postal codes. Australian postal codes consist of four
       digits; the first two digits, which range from '10' to '97', indicate the state. Territories use '02'
       or '08' as starting digits; the leading zero is optional. '0909' is the only postal code starting
       with '09' (the leading zero is optional here as well) - this is the postal code for the Nothern
       Territory University).  The (optional) country prefixes are AU (ISO country code) and AUS (CEPT
       code).  Regexp::Common 2.107 and before used $RE{zip}{Australia}. This is still supported.

       If "{-keep}" is used, the following variables will be set:

       $1  The entire postal code.

       $2  The country code prefix.

       $3  The postal code without the country prefix.

       $4  The state or territory.

       $5  The last two digits.

   $RE{zip}{Belgium}
       Returns a pattern than recognizes Belgian postal codes. Belgian postal codes consist of 4 digits, of

       the first digit (which cannot be 0), indicates the distribution region, the second the distribution
       district. The (optional) country prefix is DK, which is both the ISO country code and the CEPT code.

       latter three indicate the distribution district and the postal town.  The (optional) country prefixes
       are DE (ISO country code) and D (CEPT code).  Regexp::Common 2.107 and before used $RE{zip}{German}.

   $RE{zip}{Italy}
       Returns a pattern recognizing Italian postal codes. Italian postal codes consist of 5 digits. The
       first digit indicates the region, the second the province. The third digit is odd for province
       capitals, and even for the province itself. The fourth digit indicates the route, and the fifth a
       place on the route (0 for small places, alphabetically for the rest).

       The country prefix is either IT (the ISO country code), or I (the CEPT code).

       If "{-keep}" is used, the following variables will be set:

       letters, separated by a space.  The separator can be changed using the "{-sep}" option, as discussed
       above. The (optional) country prefix is NL, which is both the ISO country code and the CEPT code.
       Regexp::Common 2.107 and earlier used $RE{zip}{Dutch}. This is still supported.

       and the fourth the post office number.

   $RE{zip}{US}{-extended => [yes|no|allow]}
       Returns a pattern that recognizes US zip codes. US zip codes consist of 5 digits, with an optional 4
       digit extension. By default, extensions are allowed, but not required. This can be influenced by the
       "-extended" option. If its argument starts with a "y", extensions are required; if the argument
       starts with a "n", extensions will not be recognized. If an extension is used, a dash is used to
       separate the main part from the extension, but this can be changed with the "-sep" option.

       The country prefix is either US (the ISO country code), or USA (the CEPT code).

       If "{-keep}" is being used, the following variables will be set:

       $1  The entire postal code.

       $2  The country code prefix.

       $3  The postal code without the country prefix.

       $4  The first 5 digits of the postal code.

       $5  The first three digits of the postal code, indicating a sectional center or a large city. New in
           Regexp::Common 2.119.

       $6  The last 2 digits of the 5 digit part of the postal code, indicating a post office facility or
           delivery area. New in Regexp::Common 2.119.

       $7  The separator between the 5 digit part and the 4 digit part. Up to Regexp::Common 2.118, this
           used to be $5.

       $8  The 4 digit part of the postal code (if any). Up to Regexp::Common 2.118, this used to be $6.

       $9  The first two digits of the 4 digit part of the postal code, indicating a sector, or several
           blocks. New in Regexp::Common 2.119.

       $10 The last two digits of the 4 digit part of the postal code, indicating a segment or one side of a
           street. New in Regexp::Common 2.119.

       You need at least version 5.005_03 to be able to use US postal codes.  Older versions contain a bug
       that let the pattern match invalid US postal codes.

       Questions

       •   Can the 5 digit part of the zip code (in theory) start with 000?

       •   Can the 5 digit part of the zip code (in theory) end with 00?

       •   Can the 4 digit part of the zip code (in theory) start with 00?

       •   Can the 4 digit part of the zip code (in theory) end with 00?
