Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Phone Number Formatter

Parsing and formatting phone numbers so you don't have to.

Getting Started

Install the module with: npm install phone-formatter

Phone-formatter is pretty straight-forward. First, it can normalize pretty much any format you can throw at it. If it can't, then send a pull request with a failing test and it will (shortly thereafter).

var phoneFormatter = require('phone-formatter');

phoneFormatter.normalize('212.555.1212');
// returns "2125551212"

phoneFormatter.normalize('+1 (212) 555-1212');
// returns "2125551212"

You get the idea. It can also format a series of ten digits into almost any format your heart desires. Use the letter "N" as a place holder.

phoneFormatter.format("2125551212", "(NNN) NNN-NNNN");
// returns "(212) 555-1212"

But I want to do both at the same time!

That's cool. Do it.

phoneFormatter.format("(212) 555-1212", "NNN.NNN.NNNN")
// returns "212.555.1212"

If for some reason, this is not what you want: you can turn it off.

phoneFormatter.format("(212) 555-1212", "NNN.NNN.NNNN", {normalize: false})
// Will probably crash and burn hideously. What are you even doing?

Documentation

As it stands, there are only two methods, normalize and format. They are pretty much fleshed out above. That said, I'm reserving this second for future greatness.

I can confirm that Phone Formatter can normalize the following formats.

  • (212) 555 1212
  • (212) 555.1212
  • (212) 555-1212
  • (212) 5551212
  • (212)5551212
  • 212 555 1212
  • 212.555.1212
  • 212-555-1212
  • 1-212-555-1212
  • +1 (212) 555-1212
  • +1 (212) 555 - 1212
  • 12125551212
  • +45 (212) 555-1212
  • +45 (212) 555 - 1212
  • 2125551212

It may handle ever more, but I haven't tested it.

Contributing

Pull requests are welcome as long as they are accompanied by tests.

Right now, this library is incredibly American-centric and that kind of stinks, but my use case consisted exclusively of American phone numbers. If you'd like to tweak Phone Formatter to better suit your situation, please do!

Brief Style Guide: Two spaces, no space before function parentheses, semi-colons everywhere.

Release History

  • 0.0.3: Handle undefined phone number.
  • 0.0.2: Normalize phone numbers by default.
