Usage

The plugin provides a GermanPostalCodeService that can be injected into Grails artefacts as usual:

def germanPostalCodeService

The service has two methods - findPostalCodes() and checkPostalCode() - both of which take a query argument as in:

assert ['10997'] == germanPostalCodeService.findPostalCodes('10997')
assert ['48431', '48432'] == germanPostalCodeService.findPostalCodes('4843*')
assert true == germanPostalCodeService.checkPostalCode('46242')

Both methods allow wildcard (*) characters. findPostalCodes() yields a list of matching postal codes. checkPostalCode returns true if a postal code matches the query.
