[DEPRECATED] This library was designed for the first version of the French digital pass, France use European eHealth format since mid July 2021. Check https://github.com/ehn-dcc-development for more informations.
This library provides a quick and easy interface to verify COVID-19 certificates generated in France.
Your bugfix and pull request contribution are always welcomed.
You can install france-ehealth-certificates using npm:
$ npm install france-ehealth-certificatesSignature verification
const fhc = require('france-ehealth-certificaces');
let vaccination = new fhc.Vaccination("DC04FR0000011E6D1E6DL101FRL0THEOULE SUR MER\u001dL1JEAN PAUL\u001dL231051962L3COVID-19\u001dL4J07BX03\u001dL5COMIRNATY PFIZER/BIONTECH\u001dL6COMIRNATY PFIZER/BIONTECH\u001dL71L82L901032021LACO\u001f32T2SI2RUMPDLBHAFSBDF2CUE7GI4NR5WC3NSBEU6AZ7QZJZCPMCTXTVIDZAKEYO7237SQ2ZPOCMZKG7U3Q2LIMPPVJMA7TQAAKC5DY");
let isVerified = false;

Signature is the raw value from the 2D-DOC. This value is still base32 (RFC 4648) encoded.
No. This library only provides features to read and verify a COVID-19 certificates (Vaccination & Sanitary (RT-PCR)).
You need to implement French regulations on your side.
No. European certificates use another format of certificates.
