# PhonyRails [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/joost/phony_rails.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/joost/phony_rails)

This small Gem adds useful methods to your Rails app to validate, display and save phone numbers.
It uses the super awesome Phony gem (https://github.com/floere/phony).

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

    gem 'phony_rails' # Include phony_rails after mongoid (if you use mongoid, see issue #66 on github).

And then execute:

    $ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

    $ gem install phony_rails

## Usage

### Normalization / Model Usage

#### ActiveRecord

For **ActiveRecord**, in your model add:

    class SomeModel < ActiveRecord::Base
      # Normalizes the attribute itself before validation
      phony_normalize :phone_number, :default_country_code => 'US'

      # Normalizes attribute before validation and saves into other attribute
      phony_normalize :phone_number, :as => :phone_number_normalized_version, :default_country_code => 'US'

      # Creates method normalized_fax_number that returns the normalized version of fax_number
      phony_normalized_method :fax_number
    end

#### Mongoid

For **Mongoid**, in keeping with Mongoid plug-in conventions you must include the `Mongoid::Phony` module:

    class SomeModel
      include Mongoid::Document
      include Mongoid::Phony

      # methods are same as ActiveRecord usage
    end

#### General info

The `:default_country_code` options is used to specify a country_code when normalizing.

PhonyRails will also check your model for a country_code method to use when normalizing the number. So `'070-12341234'` with `country_code` 'NL' will get normalized to `'+317012341234'`.

You can also do-it-yourself and call:

    # Options:
    #   :country_code => The country code we should use (forced).
    #   :default_country_code => Some fallback code (eg. 'NL') that can be used as default (comes from phony_normalize_numbers method).

    PhonyRails.normalize_number('some number', :country_code => 'NL')

    PhonyRails.normalize_number('+4790909090', :country_code => 'SE') # => '+464790909090' (forced to +46)
    PhonyRails.normalize_number('+4790909090', :default_country_code => 'SE') # => '+4790909090' (still +47 so not changed)

The country_code should always be a ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2).

### Validation

In your model use the Phony.plausible method to validate an attribute:

    validates :phone_number, :phony_plausible => true

or the helper method:

    validates_plausible_phone :phone_number

this method use other validators under the hood to provide:
* presence validation using `ActiveModel::Validations::PresenceValidator`
* format validation using `ActiveModel::Validations::FormatValidator`

so we can use:

    validates_plausible_phone :phone_number, :presence => true
    validates_plausible_phone :phone_number, :with => /^\+\d+/
    validates_plausible_phone :phone_number, :without => /^\+\d+/
    validates_plausible_phone :phone_number, :presence => true, :with => /^\+\d+/

the i18n key is `:improbable_phone`. Languages supported by default: de, en, fr, it, ja, kh and tr.

You can also validate if a number has the correct country number:

    validates_plausible_phone :phone_number, :country_number => '61'

or correct country code:

    validates_plausible_phone :phone_number, :country_code => 'AU'

You can validate against the normalized input as opposed to the raw input:

    phony_normalize :phone_number, as: :phone_number_normalized, :default_country_code => 'US'
    validates_plausible_phone :phone_number, :normalized_country_code => 'US'

#### Allowing records country codes to not match phone number country codes

You may have a record specifying one country (via a `country_code` attribute) but using a phone number from another country.  For example, your record may be from Japan but have a phone number from the Philippines. By default, `phony_rails` will consider your record's `country_code` as part of the validation.  If that country doesn't match the country code in the phone number, validation will fail.  

If you want to allow records from one country to have phone numbers from a different one, there are a couple of options you can use: `ignore_record_country_number` and `ignore_record_country_code`.  Use them like so:

    validates :phone_number, :phony_plausible => { :ignore_record_country_code => true, :ignore_record_country_number => true }

Obviously, you don't have to use both, and you may not need or want to set either.

### Display / Views

In your views use:

    <%= "311012341234".phony_formatted(:format => :international, :spaces => '-') %>
    <%= "+31-10-12341234".phony_formatted(:format => :international, :spaces => '-') %>
    <%= "+31(0)1012341234".phony_formatted(:format => :international, :spaces => '-') %>

To first normalize the String to a certain country use:

    <%= "010-12341234".phony_formatted(:normalize => :NL, :format => :international, :spaces => '-') %>

To return nil when a number is not valid:

    "123".phony_formatted(:strict => true) # => nil

You can also use the bang method (phony_formatted!):

    number = "010-12341234"
    number.phony_formatted!(:normalize => :NL, :format => :international)
    number # => "+31 10 123 41234"

You can also easily normalize a phone number String:

    "+31 (0)30 1234 123".phony_normalized # => '31301234123'
    "(0)30 1234 123".phony_normalized # => '301234123'
    "(0)30 1234 123".phony_normalized(country_code: 'NL') # => '301234123'

### Find by normalized number

Say you want to find a record by a phone number. Best is to normalize user input and compare to an attribute stored in the db.

    Home.find_by_normalized_phone_number(PhonyRails.normalize_number(params[:phone_number]))
