= USPS-intelligent-barcode

USPS-intelligent-barcode is a pure ruby gem to generate a USPS
Intelligent Mail Barcode.  More specifically, it generates the string
of characters you should print using one of the {USPS Intelligent
Barcode fonts}[https://ribbs.usps.gov/onecodesolution/download.cfm].

== FORKED FROM

This project was forked from
https://github.com/rtlong/USPS-intelligent-barcode by Ryan Taylor
Long, in order to add tests and refactor.  It is _not_ a drop-in
replacement: I renamed most methods and classes, and eliminated the
#draw method.

== INSTALL

    $ gem install USPS-intelligent-barcode

== EXAMPLE

    #!/usr/bin/env ruby
    
    require 'rubygems'
    require 'USPS-intelligent-barcode'
    
    barcode_id = '01'
    service_type = '234'
    mailer_id = '567094'
    serial_number = '987654321'
    routing_code = '01234567891'
    barcode = Imb::Barcode.new(barcode_id,
                               service_type,
                               mailer_id,
                               serial_number,
                               routing_code)
    p barcode.barcode_letters
    # => "AADTFFDFTDADTAADAATFDTDDAAADDTDTTDAFADADDDTFFFDDTTTADFAAADFTDAADA"

== STANDARD

This gem is based upon standard
{USPS-B-3200G}[https://ribbs.usps.gov/intelligentmail_mailpieces/documents/tech_guides/SPUSPSG.pdf]

== RUBY VERSIONS

The tests are known to pass in MRI 1.8.7 and MRI 1.9.3

Thanks to Ryan Taylor Long for his original work, without which I
would have been lost in the USPS specification.
