google-libphonenumber

A browserify-compatible wrapper for Google's libphonenumber, a library to parse, format, store and validate international phone numbers. Zero dependencies, always up-to-date.

Status

Installation

Install the package via npm:

npm install google-libphonenumber --save

Usage

Here's a simple example on how to format a US-based number in the international phone number format:

// Require `PhoneNumberFormat`.
var PNF = require('google-libphonenumber').PhoneNumberFormat;

// Get an instance of `PhoneNumberUtil`.
var phoneUtil = require('google-libphonenumber').PhoneNumberUtil.getInstance();

// Parse number with country code.
var phoneNumber = phoneUtil.parse('202-456-1414', 'US');

// Print number in the international format.
console.log(phoneUtil.format(phoneNumber, PNF.INTERNATIONAL));
// => +1 202-456-1414

Using the "As You Type" Formatter

// Require `AsYouTypeFormatter`.
var AsYouTypeFormatter = require('google-libphonenumber').AsYouTypeFormatter;
var formatter = new AsYouTypeFormatter('US');

console.log(formatter.inputDigit('6')); // => 6
console.log(formatter.inputDigit('5')); // => 65
console.log(formatter.inputDigit('0')); // => 650
console.log(formatter.inputDigit('2')); // => 650-2
console.log(formatter.inputDigit('5')); // => 650-25
console.log(formatter.inputDigit('3')); // => 650-253
console.log(formatter.inputDigit('2')); // => 650-2532
console.log(formatter.inputDigit('2')); // => (650) 253-22

formatter.clear();

Notes

Differences from other forks

All classes available from libphonenumber are exported as-is. No magic methods.
Always based on the latest google-closure library version available from Google with performance and bug fixes.
Relies on a simplified and well-documented update process to keep the underlying libphonenumber library always up-to-date.

Tests

A small subset of tests guarantees that the main library functions are working as expected and are correctly exported. The actual heavy lifting is done by libphonenumber's extensive test suite.
