4.0.1 (older version) Thoroughness: High Understanding: High
by ThomasdenH on 2022-01-12
This review is from Crev, a distributed system for code reviews. To add your review, set up cargo-crev.
The current version of iban_validate is 5.0.1.
Lib.rs has been able to verify that all files in the crate's tarball are in the crate's repository. Please note that this check is still in beta, and absence of this confirmation does not mean that the files don't match.
Crates in the crates.io registry are tarball snapshots uploaded by crates' publishers. The registry is not using crates' git repositories, so there is a possibility that published crates have a misleading repository URL, or contain different code from the code in the repository.
To review the actual code of the crate, it's best to use cargo crev open iban_validate. Alternatively, you can download the tarball of iban_validate v5.0.1 or view the source online.
I am the creator of this crate. This crate is tested extensively. All country-specific code is automatically generated from the registry. I suspect this may be one of if not the fastest iban parser out there. I have also noticed mistakes in other parsers online that are not present in this library. One reason you may avoid using this that I can think of is the dependency on
arrayvec, which uses quite a bit of unsafe code.
