About

What is, what isn't and what will be about Phone:

  1. It isn't:
    • Intended to work as libphonenumber.
    • Prepared to format numbers.
    • Necessary any information about the number if in international standard.
  2. It is:
    • A real parser, created to extract information based only in the number.
    • Prepared to work with numbers not only in the international standard.
  3. It will have:
    • Area code info for every country that numbering plan has area codes.

  • Patterns:

    • Countries without area code info:

        %{
    country: "Country Name",
    a2: "Alpha-2",
    a3: "Alpha-3",
    international_code: "1",
    area_code: "yyy",
    number: "xxxxxxx"
  }

    • Countries with area code info:

        %{
    country: "Country Name",
    a2: "Alpha-2 code",
    a3: "Alpha-3 code",
    international_code: "1",
    number: "xxxxxxx",
    area_code: "yyy",
