README

Normalize a phone number (with or without country code).

Background

We needed to send phone numbers to a third-party API as an amalgamation of the phone number and the country code, without the plus sign, brackets or any other special characters such as hyphens or spaces. We built this package as a solution to automatically parse user-input phone numbers and pass them as-is to the API, if already in the correct format - otherwise amend them and send the formatted numbers to the API.

This package looks for the environment variable PHONE_DEFAULT_COUNTRY_CODE to define the base country code to be prepended to the numbers with no country code. If no such variable is define, the package assumes a default of India (91).
