Phonofy
Phonofy is a Ruby gem that simplifies phone number formatting in Rails applications using the Phonelib library. With Phonofy, you can easily parse and format phone number data according to international standards, ensuring that your phone number data is consistent and valid across your application.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'phonofy'
And then execute:
bundle
Or install it yourself as:
gem install phonofy
Usage
To use phonofy, simply call the phonofy method in your Rails model:
class User < ApplicationRecord
phonofy
end
This will add phone number validation and formatting to the phone_number attribute of the Driver model.
You can also specify a custom attribute name for the phone number:
class Contact < ApplicationRecord
phonofy :mobile_number
end
This will add phone number validation and formatting to the mobile_number attribute of the Contact model.
You can also pass additional options to phonofy to customize its behavior:
class User < ApplicationRecord
phonofy :phone, phonelib: { countries: [:us, :ca], types: [:mobile] }
end
This will add phone number validation and formatting to the phone attribute of the User model, and restrict it to US and Canada mobile phone numbers.
Configuration
You can configure phonofy by creating an initializer file in your Rails application and setting the default options:
# config/initializers/phonofy.rb
Phonofy.configure do |config|
config.default_phonelib_options = { countries: [:us, :ca], types: [:mobile] }
config.default_twilio_options = { lookup: { type: :carrier_type } }
end
This will set the default options for phonofy to validate only US and Canada mobile phone numbers using the Phonelib library, and perform a Twilio lookup to get carrier information for the phone number.
