A PHP library for EAN and ISBN validation and conversion

reBuy EAN / ISBN Library

A PHP library for validating and converting EAN and ISBN identifiers licensed under the MIT license., _(*1)

Installation

To use the library you need PHP 7.1 and Composer. Add the following entry to your composer.json., _(*2)

composer require rebuy/ean-isbn-library

Usage

The core of the library are identifier objects representing valid EAN-13, EAN-8, or ISBN-10 identifiers. Identifier objects can be created using a parser which validates and normalizes the identifier string., _(*3)

$parser = new Parser();
$identifier = $parser->parse('978-0091956141');

echo $identifier; // will print '9780091956141'

Once you have an identifier object, you can convert it into an alternate representation if available., _(*4)

$converter = new Converter();
$conversion = $converter->convert($identifier);
echo $conversion; // will print '0091956145'

Both parsers and converters will throw exceptions if the action can’t be performed. Go to examples for complete executable examples and docs for a full API reference., _(*5)
