com.google.type.phone_number

An object representing a phone number, suitable as an API wire format.

This representation:

• should not be used for locale-specific formatting of a phone number, such as "+1 (650) 253-0000 ext. 123"

• is not designed for efficient storage

• may not be suitable for dialing - specialized libraries (see references) should be used to parse the number for that purpose

To do something meaningful with this number, such as format it for various use-cases, convert it to an i18n.phonenumbers.PhoneNumber object first.

For instance, in Java this would be:

com.google.type.PhoneNumber wireProto = com.google.type.PhoneNumber.newBuilder().build(); com.google.i18n.phonenumbers.Phonenumber.PhoneNumber phoneNumber = PhoneNumberUtil.getInstance().parse(wireProto.getE164Number(), "ZZ"); if (!wireProto.getExtension().isEmpty()) { phoneNumber.setExtension(wireProto.getExtension()); }
