How to use
----------

[](#how-to-use)

### AGS

[](#ags)

Provides a class which represents an *Amtlichen Gemeindeschlüssel* data object. You can create a new object by passing each part of an AGS via constructor or parse an AGS String via static fromString method.

```
// pass each part of AGS as constructor parameter
$ags = new AGS("14", "7", "30", "070");

// pass full AGS string via parseString method
$ags = AGS::fromString("14730070");
```

### ARS

[](#ars)

Provides a class which represents an *Amtlichen Regionalschlüssel* data object. Similar to the AGS class you can pass each part of an ARS via constructor parameter or parse an ARS String via static fromString method.

```
// pass each part of ARS as constructor parameter
$ars = new ARS("14", "7", "30", "0070", "070");

// pass full ARS string via parseString method
$ars = ARS::fromString("147300070070");
```

Technically an ARS is an AGS with a little more information (Verbandsschlüssel). So it is possible to extract an AGS from an ARS. Conversely, you cannot create an ARS from an AGS because the lack of information (Verbandsschlüssel).

```
$ars = new ARS("14", "7", "30", "0070", "070");
$ags = ars->toAGS();

echo (string)$ags;
// prints: "14730070"
```
