## Features

- Supports GTIN-8, GTIN-12 (UPC-12), GTIN-13 (GLN), GTIN-14, GSIN, SSCC codes
- Generate GTIN
- Check GTIN validity 
- Lookup GS1 country prefix

## Usage

- Check GTIN codes

      iex> ExGtin.check_gtin("6291041500213")
      {:ok, "GTIN-13"}

      iex> ExGtin.check_gtin("6291041500214")
      {:error, "Invalid Code"}

- Generate GTIN codes

      iex> ExGtin.generate_gtin("629104150021")
      "6291041500213"

- Lookup GS1 Prefix 

      iex> ExGtin.Validation.find_gs1_prefix_country("53523235")

      iex> ExGtin.check_gtin([6, 2, 9, 1, 0, 4, 1, 5, 0, 0, 2, 1, 3])
      {:ok, "GTIN-13"}

- Integer

      iex> ExGtin.check_gtin(6291041500213)
      {:ok, "GTIN-13"}
