US state by area code and vice versa

[Juri Bogdanov]

Is there possibility to get US State by US phone number or by area code?

The data is in resources/geocoding/en/1.txt. I presume that it's exposed
somewhere by the library but I don't know where (I'm only here because I
use the data in my related project). You'll have to do a certain amount
of parsing of the place names to get consistent results, and note that
you'll have to check that a number is a *US* number, because eg
1418|Quebec and 1418226|Saint-Georges, QC are in there, which you may
not want. If you *do* want to extract data for non-US NANP countries
then you need to be aware that it's not complete. For example, the data
for Jamaica consists entirely of ...

1876957|Negril

and there's no data at all for Montserrat (1664)

(would the maintainers like a patch which at least provides the basics
like 1664|Montserrat for the missing countries?)

Oh, and when extracting the state from a number don't just assume "it's
the bit after the comma" because there is at least one entry with more
than one comma ...

Hi Juri,

Thank you for using libphonenumber and mailing us on this.

You can make use of APIs in PhoneNumberOfflineGeocoder to know the geocoding values.

Sample code is present in libphonenumber GitHub page.

For US, the geocoding details are in “area name, state name” format.

Demo link: https://libphonenumber.appspot.com/phonenumberparser?number=%2B12012000000

As mentioned by David the format is not consistent for few prefixes.

Thanks & Regards,

Aravind

Actually we have the data for Montserrat; this is not in this file because it is a "region" all by itself so it's in the general XML file. If you use getRegionCodeForNumber and provide a number with a Montserrat area code, you will get MS returned. If anyone had any more *detailed* data for Montserrat (down to e.g. town level, if such a thing makes any sense for an island so small), we would include it in the geocoding data file.
