Updated version of Google's phone number handling library ported to node.js
Updated version of Google's phone number handling library ported to node.js
Based on https://github.com/mattbornski/libphonenumber
This version is an attempt to keep up to date with the phone number metadata provided by Google at https://github.com/googlei18n/libphonenumber
It also requires keeping in sync with Google's clsure library (https://github.com/google/closure-library)
The changes from phone numbers are announced at http://www.nanpa.com/planning_letters/index.html
Ideally we can automate when a new NPA is available in the US so the library can easily be updated by itself. Until then, we rely on Google to update the metadata and we can sync up with them manually.
npm install libphonenumber-update
var libphonenumber = require('libphonenumber')
