parse(mrz, [options])
Parses the provided MRZ. The argument can be an array of lines or a single string
including line breaks. This function throws an error if the input is in an
unsupported format. It will never throw an error when there are invalid fields
in the MRZ. Instead, the result.valid
value will be false
and
details about the invalid fields can be found in result.details
.
options.autocorrect
If set to true
, some ambiguous characters will be automatically corrected by the parser if the field is supposed to
only contain numeric or alphabetic characters.
For example, in a date field, the letter "O" will be converted to the number "0".
Information about autocorrected characters will be added to the result details.
Default: false
.
String identifying the format of the parsed MRZ. Supported formats are:
true
if all fields are valid. false

if it is invalid. The value may be different from the raw value. For example,
result.fields.sex
will be "male" when the raw value was "M".
