Methods

parse( input, country, language, localization_country )

Parses the input against the phone numbering schema of the country jurisdiction. The results are subsequently localized for the language used in localization_country area.

phonenumber = require 'luaphonenumber'

local pn = phonenumber.parse( "+18045551234", "us", "en", "US" )

print( "e164 format: " .. pn.E164 )
print( "rfc3966 format: " .. pn.RFC3966 )
print( "international format: " .. pn.INTERNATIONAL )
print( "national format: " .. pn.NATIONAL )
print( "country: " .. pn.country )
print( "location: " .. pn.location )
print( "line type: " .. pn.type )

Output:

e164 format: +18045551234
rfc3966 format: tel:+1-804-555-1234
international format: +1 804-555-1234
national format: (804) 555-1234
country: US
location: Virginia
line type: FIXED_LINE_OR_MOBILE
format( input, country, pattern )

Formats the input against the phone numbering schema of the country jurisdiction, using one of the following patterns:

  • E164
  • INTERNATIONAL
  • NATIONAL
  • RFC3966
phonenumber = require 'luaphonenumber'

print( "e164 format: " .. phonenumber.format( "+18045551234", "us", "E164" ) )
print( "rfc3966 format: " .. phonenumber.format( "+18045551234", "us", "RFC3966" ) )
print( "international format: " .. phonenumber.format( "+18045551234", "us", "INTERNATIONAL" ) )
print( "national format: " .. phonenumber.format( "+18045551234", "us", "NATIONAL" ) )

Output:

e164 format: +18045551234
rfc3966 format: tel:+1-804-555-1234
international format: +1 804-555-1234
national format: (804) 555-1234
get_country( input, bias_country )

Returns the country of the input with consideration to the bias_country.

When providing the input in e.164 format, the bias_country is effectively ignored. Also, it returns a country code of ZZ when it cannot make a proper assessment.

phonenumber = require 'luaphonenumber'

local input1 = "+18045551234"
local input2 = "8045551234"
local input3 = "+447400555123"
local input4 = "07400555123"

print( "Country of " .. input1 .. ": " .. phonenumber.get_country( input1, "us" ) )
print( "Country of " .. input2 .. ": " .. phonenumber.get_country( input2, "us" ) )
print( "Country of " .. input3 .. ": " .. phonenumber.get_country( input3, "us" ) )
print( "Country of " .. input4 .. ": " .. phonenumber.get_country( input4, "us" ) )

Output:

Country of +18045551234: US
Country of 8045551234: US
Country of +447400555123: GB
Country of 07400555123: ZZ
get_location( input, country, language, localization_country )

Returns the region (country subdivision) of the input against the phone numbering schema of the country jurisdiction. The results are subsequently localized for the language used in localization_country area.

phonenumber = require 'luaphonenumber'

local input1 = "+18045551234"
local country1 = "us"
local input2 = "+442085551234"
local country2 = "gb"

print( "Region of " .. input1 .. ": " .. phonenumber.get_location( input1, country1, "en", "US" ) )
print( "Region of " .. input2 .. ": " .. phonenumber.get_location( input2, country2, "en", "US" ) )

Output:

Region of +18045551234: Virginia
Region of +442085551234: London
get_type( input, country )

Returns the line type of input with consideration to the country numbering schema. The returned type can be one of the following:

  • FIXED_LINE
  • FIXED_LINE_OR_MOBILE
  • MOBILE
  • PAGER
  • PERSONAL_NUMBER
  • PREMIUM_RATE
  • SHARED_COST
  • TOLL_FREE
  • UAN
  • UNKNOWN
  • VOICEMAIL
  • VOIP 
phonenumber = require 'luaphonenumber'

local input1 = "+18045551234"
local country1 = "us"
local input2 = "+442085551234"
local country2 = "gb"
local input3 = "+40740555123"
local country3 = "ro"

print( "Type of " .. input1 .. ": " .. phonenumber.get_type( input1, country1 ) )
print( "Type of " .. input2 .. ": " .. phonenumber.get_type( input2, country2 ) )
print( "Type of " .. input3 .. ": " .. phonenumber.get_type( input3, country3 ) )

Output:

Type of +18045551234: FIXED_LINE_OR_MOBILE
Type of +442085551234: FIXED_LINE
Type of +40740555123: MOBILE
