kandi X-RAY | uk_postcode Summary
UK postcode parsing and validation for Ruby for writing friendly software. Note: There's a distinction between validity and existence. This library validates the format of a postcode, but not whether it actually currently refers to a location. By analogy, name@somedomainthatdoesnotexist.com is a valid email address in terms of format, but you can't successfully deliver an email to it.
