golang port of Google's libphonenumber forked from libphonenumber from ttacon/libphonenumber. This library is used daily in production for parsing and validation of numbers across the world, so is well maintained. Please open an issue if you encounter any problems, we'll do our best to address them.
Important
The aim of this project is strictly to be a port and match as closely as possible the functionality in libphonenumber. Please don't submit feature requests for functionality that doesn't exist in libphonenumber.
Important
We use the metadata from libphonenumber so if you encounter unexpected parsing results, please first verify if the problem affects libphonenumber and report there if so. You can use their online demo to quickly check parsing results.
As we don't want to bump our major semantic version number in step with the upstream library, we use independent version numbers than the Google libphonenumber repo. The release notes will mention what version of the metadata a release was built against.
// parse our phone number
num, err := phonenumbers.Parse("6502530000", "US")
// format it using national format
formattedNum := phonenumbers.Format(num, phonenumbers.NATIONAL)
The buildmetadata
command will fetch the latest XML file from the official Google repo and rebuild the go source files
containing all the territory metadata, timezone and region maps.
It will rebuild the following files:
gen/metadata_bin.go
- protocol buffer definitions for all the various formats across countries etc..gen/shortnumber_metadata_bin.go
- protocol buffer definitions for ShortNumberMetadata.xmlgen/countrycode_to_region_bin.go
- information needed to map a contry code to a regiongen/prefix_to_carrier_bin.go
- information needed to map a phone number prefix to a carriergen/prefix_to_geocoding_bin.go
- information needed to map a phone number prefix to a city or regiongen/prefix_to_timezone_bin.go
- information needed to map a phone number prefix to a city or region
