ExtractPhoneNumbers extracts phone numbers from text.
Add the ExtractPhoneNumbers nuget package to your app. For example, using Package Manager Console:
$ Install-Package ExtractPhoneNumbers
Extract an international number from a text:
var tokens = MatchToken.Tokens("Hey my number is +1-312-555-1212 and my mom answers the phone").ToArray();
# => [#<ExtractPhoneNumbers::MatchToken Type=Text Value=Hey my number is >,
#<ExtractPhoneNumbers::MatchToken Type=Number Value=+1-312-555-1212 >,
#<ExtractPhoneNumbers::MatchToken Type=Text Value=and my mom answers the phone >]
If you only care about the phone numbers:
var tokens = PhoneNumbers.Extract("Hey my number is +1-312-555-1212 and my mom answers the phone").ToArray();
# => [+1-312-555-1212]
ExtractPhoneNumbers currently does not validate phone numbers. This means that it will extract text that sort of looks like phone numbers. In order to weed out the wrong numbers you could use this lib together with GlobalPhone.
