vinlib
vinlib is a Vehicle Identification Number Package that allows you to verify and decode parts of the vin number.
Currently it can:
- vinlib.check_vin will return whether the entered vin number is authentic/correct.
- Vin('somevinhere') will return object that has vehicle year and vin check true/false flag.
Using vinlib
In python code you can check if the vin is valid:
import vinlib myvinnumber='1hasomenumberhere' print vinlib.check_vin(myvinnumber)
This will return true or false depending if the vin number is correct or not.
In python code you can decode vin's year:
import vinlib print vinlib.Vin('1ZVIHaveAVinNumber17').year
Additional Examples:
import vinlib #get year from a vin print vinlib.Vin('1ZVIHaveAVinNumber17').year #check if vin is valid. print vinlib.Vin('1ZVIHaveAVinNumber17').check
