pg_libphonenumber

A (partially implemented!) PostgreSQL extension that provides access to Google's libphonenumber

Project status

This extension is in an alpha state. It's not complete or tested enough for critical production deployments, but with a little help, we should be able to get it there.

Synopsis

CREATE EXTENSION pg_libphonenumber;
SELECT parse_packed_phone_number('03 7010 1234', 'AU');
SELECT parse_packed_phone_number('2819010011', 'US');

CREATE TABLE foo ( ph packed_phone_number );

Installation

Debian/Ubuntu

First you'll need to install libphonenumber-dev and the corresponding postgresql-server-dev package.

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install \
    build-essential \
    postgresql-server-dev-9.6 \
    libphonenumber-dev

Then clone this repository and build.

git clone https://github.com/blm768/pg-libphonenumber
cd pg-libphonenumber
make
sudo make install

Running tests

For convenience, we provide a Docker image that sets up a test environment. Run the script ./run-tests.sh to build and run the image.
