(JS)\n[](https://travis-ci.org/spikeheap/nhs-number-validator)\n\nA simple NHS number validator, following the process described in the [NHS Data Dictionary](http://www.datadictionary.nhs.uk/data_dictionary/attributes/n/nhs/nhs_number_de.asp?shownav=0?query=%22nhs+number%22&rank=100&shownav=1).\n\n## Installation\n\n##### NPM\n\n```bash\nnpm install --save nhs-number-validator\n```\n\n##### Bower\n\n```bash\nbower install --save nhs-number-validator\n```\n\n## Usage\n\n##### Command line / terminal\n\nTo run the interactive validation tool, install the NPM module globally:\n\n```bash\nnpm install -g nhs-number-validator\n```\n\nand `nhs-number-validator` will be added to your path:\n\n```bash\n$ nhs-number-validator\nEnter NHS numbers to validate, Ctrl-D to exit\n> 123\n*INVALID\n> 2983396339\n VALID\n```\n\nYou can also install the tool for a single project, and just reference the executable in your project:\n\n```bash\nnpm install nhs-number-validator\n./node_modules/.bin/nhs-number-validator\n# or\n`npm bin`/nhs-number-validator\n```\n\n##### Node/Browserify\n\nFor environments supporting `require`/`exports`:\n\n```javascript\nvar validator = require('nhs-number-validator');\n\nvalidator.validate('2983396339') // => true\nvalidator.validate('test') // => false\n```\n\n##### Browsers\n\nAny environment which exposes `window` will have the `nhsNumberValidator` variable attached when `index.js` is loaded, e.g.:\n\n```html\n\n\n```\n\n\n## Contributing\n\nPull requests, issues, and questions are all welcome.\n\nSome useful commands:\n\n* `npm test`: run the test suite.\n* `npm run test-watch --silent`: watch for changes and run the test suite each time.\n* `npm run lint --silent`: run the code linter.\n* `npm run cli`: run the validator CLI.\n\nNPM is overly verbose [at the moment](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/5452), hence the additional `--silent` to suppress the unnecessary noise.\n\n### Creating a release\n\nMaking a release is pretty straightforward:\n\n1. Update the version in `package.json` in the `main` branch.\n2. Tag the commit with the same version number (e.g. `git tag -l \"1.1.1\" && git push --tags`), which will trigger GitHub Actions to publish to NPM.\n\n","readmeFilename":"README.md"}
