+**contains(str, seed [, options ])**    | check if the string contains the seed.<br/><br/>`options` is an object that defaults to `{ ignoreCase: false, minOccurrences: 1 }`.<br />Options: <br/> `ignoreCase`: Ignore case when doing comparison, default false<br/>`minOccurences`: Minimum number of occurrences for the seed in the string. Defaults to 1.
 **equals(str, comparison)**             | check if the string matches the comparison.
 **isAfter(str [, date])**               | check if the string is a date that's after the specified date (defaults to now).

Locale list is `validator.isAlphaLocales`. options is an optional object that can be supplied with the following key(s): ignore which can either be a String or RegExp of characters to be ignored e.g. " -" will ignore spaces and -'s.
