egypt-nid 0.1.1

Parse, validate and extract data from Egyptian National ID numbers

egypt-nid

egypt-nid is the definitive Python library for parsing, validating, and extracting structured data from Egyptian National ID numbers (الرقم القومي).

---

Features

• ✅ Full 14-digit structural validation (century, birth date, governorate, Luhn checksum)
• 🔒 Strict mode (raises typed exceptions) and lenient mode (collects warnings)
• 📊 Bulk parsing, filtering, and aggregate statistics
• 🌍 Governorate names in English and Arabic with locale support
• 🎭 Masking for safe display
• 🖥️ CLI tool (egypt-nid)
• 🔌 Framework-ready (Django, FastAPI, Pandas — no hard dependencies)
• 📦 py.typed – PEP 561 compliant, fully typed
• ⚡ LRU-cached repeated parses

---

Installation

pip install egypt-nid

Quick Start

from egypt_nid import parse

nid = parse("30105150123456")

print(nid.birth_date)          # datetime.date(2001, 5, 15)
print(nid.age)                 # 23 (depends on current date)
print(nid.gender)              # 'male'
print(nid.governorate_name)    # 'Cairo'
print(nid.governorate_name_ar) # 'القاهرة'
print(nid.is_adult())          # True
print(nid.born_outside_egypt)  # False
print(nid.masked())            # '3** ** ** **** 3456'

Error Handling

Strict mode (default)

from egypt_nid import parse
from egypt_nid.exceptions import (
    LengthError, NonNumericError, CenturyError,
    BirthDateError, GovernorateError, ChecksumError,
)

try:
    nid = parse("bad_input")
except LengthError as e:
    print(f"Wrong length: {e}")
except ChecksumError as e:
    print(f"Typo detected: {e}")
except EgyptNIDError as e:
    print(f"Validation failed: {e}")

Lenient mode

from egypt_nid import parse_lenient

nid, result = parse_lenient("30105150123457")  # bad checksum
if not result.valid:
    for field, warning in result.warnings.items():
        print(f"  [{field}] {warning}")
# nid is still returned if only non-critical checks fail

Serialisation

nid = parse("30105150123456")

# Dictionary
d = nid.to_dict()
d = nid.to_dict(locale="ar", include_birth_date=False)

# JSON
print(nid.to_json())
print(nid.to_json(indent=None))  # compact

Bulk Operations

from egypt_nid import parse_bulk, compute_stats
from egypt_nid import filter_by_gender, filter_by_age_range, filter_adults

ids = ["30105150123456", "29008200201241", ...]

parsed = parse_bulk(ids, skip_errors=True)

males   = filter_by_gender(parsed, "male")
adults  = filter_adults(parsed)
seniors = filter_by_age_range(parsed, 60, 100)

stats = compute_stats(parsed)
print(stats.average_age)             # 34.7
print(stats.gender_distribution)     # {'male': 120, 'female': 80}
print(stats.governorate_distribution) # {'01': 50, '21': 30, ...}

CLI Usage

# Pretty output
egypt-nid 30105150123456

# JSON output
egypt-nid --json 30105150123456

# Lenient mode
egypt-nid --lenient 30105150123457

# Bulk processing from file (one NID per line)
egypt-nid --bulk ids.txt
egypt-nid --bulk ids.txt --json

# Version
egypt-nid --version

Framework Integration

Django

from django.core.exceptions import ValidationError
from egypt_nid import parse
from egypt_nid.exceptions import EgyptNIDError

def validate_egyptian_nid(value):
    try:
        parse(value)
    except EgyptNIDError as exc:
        raise ValidationError(str(exc)) from exc

FastAPI

from fastapi import HTTPException
from egypt_nid import parse, NationalID
from egypt_nid.exceptions import EgyptNIDError

def get_nid(nid_str: str) -> NationalID:
    try:
        return parse(nid_str)
    except EgyptNIDError as exc:
        raise HTTPException(status_code=422, detail=str(exc))

Pandas

import pandas as pd
from egypt_nid import parse
from egypt_nid.exceptions import EgyptNIDError

def safe_parse(val):
    try:
        return parse(val).gender
    except EgyptNIDError:
        return None

df["gender"] = df["nid"].apply(safe_parse)

Custom Governorates

from egypt_nid import parse

custom = {
    "01": ("New Cairo", "القاهرة الجديدة"),
    "88": ("Foreign", "خارج الجمهورية"),
}

nid = parse("30105150123456", custom_governorates=custom)

Governorate Versioning

# Default is "v1"; future versions will be added without breaking changes
nid = parse("30105150123456", version="v1")

Performance Notes

• Repeated parses of the same NID string are served from an LRU cache (4096 entries).
• parse_bulk processes a list in a single pass.
• All derived attributes (age, gender) are computed lazily.
• For datasets > 100 k rows, consider running in a thread pool executor.
