Respect\\ValidationLocale
=========================

[](#respectvalidationlocale)

A set of Respect\\Validation rules to work with localization.

Country
-------

[](#country)

- `v::country()`
- `v::country(string $set)`

Validates country codes according to [ISO 3166-1](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1 "ISO 3166-1").

```
v::country()->validate('BR'); //true
```

By default we choose [ISO 3166-1 alpha-2](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2 "ISO 3166-1 alpha-2") but you can use [ISO 3166-1 alpha-3](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-3 "ISO 3166-1 alpha-3")and [ISO 3166-1 numeric](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_numeric "ISO 3166-1 numeric") as well.

```
v::country('alpha-2')->validate('US'); //true
v::country('alpha-3')->validate('USA'); //true
v::country('numeric')->validate('840'); //true
```

This rule is case sensitive.

CountrySubdivision
------------------

[](#countrysubdivision)

- `v::countrySubdivision(string $entry)`

Validates country codes according to [ISO 3166-2](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-2 "ISO 3166-2").

The `$entry` must be a country in [ISO 3166-1 alpha-2](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2 "ISO 3166-1 alpha-2") format.

```
v::countrySubdivision('BR')->validate('SP'); //true
v::countrySubdivision('US')->validate('CA'); //true
```
