HasContactNumber

Provides support for validating, storing and retrieving phone, mobile, fax numbers with ISD code.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'has_contact_number'

And then execute:

    $ bundle

Usage

Prerequisites

Add columns for required contact_number attributes in table.

In Model

Define contact number attributes/columns in model where you have columns like phone_number, mobile_number, fax_number, etc.

contact_number_attributes :column1, :column2, :columnN

For example:

class Contact < ActiveRecord::Base

  contact_number_attributes :phone_number, :mobile_number, :fax_number

end

In Controller

Use method contact_number_attributes to generate list of attributes to be permitted.

For example:

class ContactsController < ApplicationController

  def contact_params
    params.require(:contact).permit(
      *contact_number_attributes(:phone_number, :mobile_number, :fax_number), # Other attributes
    )
  end

end

Note: Pay attention to usage of splat operator (*) prefixed to contact_number_attributes

In View

You can add select list for ISD code of contact_number attribute using collection options_for_isd_code_select and text field for contact_number attribute.

For example: If you have phone_number attribute then following should be your view code (For HAML)

= f.select :phone_number_isd_code, options_for_isd_code_select, prompt: 'Select'
= f.text_field :phone_number_without_isd_code, placeholder: 'Phone Number'

You can use any FormBuilder like SimpleForm as

= f.input :phone_number_isd_code, collection: options_for_isd_code_select, prompt: 'Select'
= f.input :phone_number_without_isd_code, placeholder: 'Phone Number'
