- VerifID
vl
REST API:- User
- Image
go get github.com/verifid/vl-go/vlgo
The vlgo
package provides a Client
for accessing the VerifID Verification Layer API. You need to follow 4 basic steps to verify a person and his identity.
Steps of user verification
- Send user's personal data
- Upload photos of identity card of passport
- Upload profile photo
- Call verify user
Here are some example requests.
import (
"fmt"
"net/http"
"path"
"time"
"github.com/verifid/vl-go/vlgo"
)
var httpClient = &http.Client{
Timeout: time.Second * 15,
}
// Send User Data
user := vlgo.User{
Country: "United States",
DateOfBirth: "10.04.1980",
Name: "Tony",
Surname: "Stark"}
userClient := vlgo.NewUserService(httpClient)
userResponse, resp, err := userClient.User.SendUserData(user)
fmt.Println(userResponse)
fmt.Println(resp)
fmt.Println(err)
// Upload Identity Image
imageClient := vlgo.NewImageService(httpClient)
identityImagePath := path.Dir("/resources/2.png")
base64Str := imageClient.Image.ImageFileToBase64(identityImagePath)
imageUpload := vlgo.ImageUpload{Image: base64Str, UserID: "userId"}
uploadResponse, resp, err := imageClient.Image.UploadIdentity(imageUpload)
fmt.Println(uploadResponse)
fmt.Println(resp)
fmt.Println(err)
profileImagePath := path.Dir("/resources/2.png")
base64Str = imageClient.Image.ImageFileToBase64(profileImagePath)
imageUpload = vlgo.ImageUpload{Image: base64Str, UserID: "userId"}
// Upload Profile Image
uploadResponse, resp, err = imageClient.Image.UploadProfile(imageUpload)
fmt.Println(uploadResponse)
fmt.Println(resp)
fmt.Println(err)
// Verify User
verifyUser := vlgo.VerifyUser{
UserID: "userId",
Language: "en_core_web_sm"}
userVerificationResponse, httResponse, err := userClient.User.VerifyUser(verifyUser)
fmt.Println(userVerificationResponse)
fmt.Println(httResponse)
