UK postcode parsing and validation for

[Elixir](http://elixir-lang.org/). Based on the excellent Ruby library

of the [same name](https://github.com/threedaymonk/uk_postcode) by

[@threedaymonk](https://github.com/threedaymonk).

## Usage

Validate full postcodes or parts of a postcode.

```elixir

UKPostcode.valid? "W1A 1AA" #=> true

UKPostcode.full? "W1A 1AA"  #=> true

UKPostcode.outcode? "W1A"   #=> true

```

Extract parts of a full postcode.

```elixir

UKPostcode.outcode "W1A 1AA" #=> "W1A"

UKPostcode.incode "W1A 1AA"  #=> "1AA"

```

Normalise badly formatted postcodes.

```elixir

UKPostcode.normalise "w1a1aa"  #=> "W1A 1AA"

```
