This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (react-phone-number-input) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

react-phone-number-input

npm version npm downloads

International phone number <input/> for React.

See Demo

Install

npm install react-phone-number-input --save

If you're not using a bundler then use a standalone version from a CDN.

Use

The component requires two properties to be passed: value and onChange(value).

import 'react-phone-number-input/style.css'
import PhoneInput from 'react-phone-number-input'

return (
  <PhoneInput
    placeholder="Enter phone number"
    value={ this.state.value }
    onChange={ value => this.setState({ value }) } />
)

The value argument of onChange(value) function will be the parsed phone number in E.164 format. For example, if a user chooses "United States" and enters (213) 373-4253 in the input field then onChange(value) will be called with value being "+12133734253".

See the list of all available props for <PhoneInput/>. All properties not listed there will be passed through to the phone number <input/> component.

By default, there's some styling applied to the <input/> (for historical reasons). To prevent applying that styling to the <input/>, pass inputStyleReset property to the component.

To set default country pass a country property. Example: <PhoneInput country="US" .../>.

To get selected country pass an onCountryChange(country) property, or use parsePhoneNumber(value) function. Example: parsePhoneNumber(value) && parsePhoneNumber(value).country.

To format value back to a human-readable phone number use formatPhoneNumber(value) and formatPhoneNumberIntl(value) functions.

There's also a "without country select" phone number input component available.

CSS

When using Webpack

import 'react-phone-number-input/style.css'

It is also recommended to set up something like a postcss-loader with a CSS autoprefixer for supporting old web browsers.

When not using Webpack

Get the style.css file from this package, optionally process it with a CSS autoprefixer for supporting old web browsers, and then include the CSS file on a page.

<head>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/react-phone-number-input/style.css"/>
</head>

Or include the style.css file directly from a CDN.

Utility

This package exports several utility functions.

formatPhoneNumber(value: string): string

Formats value as a "local" phone number.

import { formatPhoneNumber } from 'react-phone-number-input'
formatPhoneNumber('+12133734253') === '(213) 373-4253'

formatPhoneNumberIntl(value: string): string

Formats value as an "international" phone number.

import { formatPhoneNumberIntl } from 'react-phone-number-input'
formatPhoneNumberIntl('+12133734253') === '+1 213 373 4253'

isPossiblePhoneNumber(value: string): boolean

Checks if the phone number is "possible". Only checks the phone number length, doesn't check the number digits against any regular expressions like isValidPhoneNumber() does.

import { isPossiblePhoneNumber } from 'react-phone-number-input'
isPossiblePhoneNumber('+12133734253') === true
isPossiblePhoneNumber('+19999999999') === true

isValidPhoneNumber(value: string): boolean

Validates a phone number value.

import { isValidPhoneNumber } from 'react-phone-number-input'
isValidPhoneNumber('+12133734253') === true
isValidPhoneNumber('+19999999999') === false

By default the component uses min "metadata" which results in less strict validation compared to max or mobile.

I personally don't use strict phone number validation in my projects because telephone numbering plans sometimes change and so validation rules can change too which means that isValidPhoneNumber() function may become outdated if a website isn't re-deployed regularly. If it was required to validate a phone number being input by a user, then I'd personally use something like isPossiblePhoneNumber() that just validates phone number length.

parsePhoneNumber(input: string): PhoneNumber?

Parses a PhoneNumber object from a string. This is simply an alias for parsePhoneNumberFromString() from libphonenumber-js. Can be used to get country from value.

import { parsePhoneNumber } from 'react-phone-number-input'
const phoneNumber = parsePhoneNumber('+12133734253')
if (phoneNumber) {
  phoneNumber.country === 'US'
}

getCountryCallingCode(country: string): string

This is simply an alias for getCountryCallingCode() from libphonenumber-js.

import { getCountryCallingCode } from 'react-phone-number-input'
getCountryCallingCode('US') === '1'

Without country select

This is just a phone number input component without country <select/>.

import PhoneInput from 'react-phone-number-input/input'

function Example() {
  // `value` will be the parsed phone number in E.164 format.
  // Example: "+12133734253".
  const [value, setValue] = useState()
  // If `country` property is not passed
  // then "International" format is used.
  return (
    <PhoneInput
      country="US"
      value={value}
      onChange={setValue} />
  )
}

Receives properties:

  • country: string? — If country is specified then the phone number can only be input in "national" (not "international") format, and will be parsed as a phone number belonging to the country. Example: country="US".

  • international: boolean? — If country is specified and international property is true then the phone number can only be input in "international" format for that country, but without "country calling code" part. For example, if country is "US" and international property is not passed then the phone number can only be input in the "national" format for US ((213) 373-4253). But if country is "US" and international property is true then the phone number will be input in the "international" format for US (213 373 4253) without "country calling code" part (+1). This could be used for implementing phone number input components that show "country calling code" part before the input field and then the user can fill in the rest of their phone number in the input field.

  • defaultCountry: string? — If defaultCountry is specified then the phone number can be input both in "international" format and "national" format. A phone number that's being input in "national" format will be parsed as a phone number belonging to the defaultCountry. Example: defaultCountry="US".

  • If neither country nor defaultCountry are specified then the phone number can only be input in "international" format.

  • value: string? — Phone number value. Examples: undefined, "+12133734253".

  • onChange(value: string?) — Updates the value.

  • inputComponent: component? — A custom <input/> component can be passed. In that case, it must be a React.forwardRef() to the actual <input/>.

  • smartCaret: boolean? — By default, the <input/> uses "smart" caret positioning. To turn that behavior off one can pass smartCaret={false} property.

  • useNationalFormatForDefaultCountryValue: boolean? — When defaultCountry is defined and the initial value corresponds to defaultCountry, then the value will be formatted as a national phone number by default. To format the initial value of defaultCountry as an international number instead set useNationalFormatForDefaultCountryValue property to false.

See the demo for the examples.

For those who want to pass custom metadata there's react-phone-number-input/input-core subpackage.

Creating custom country <select/>

This library also exports getCountries() and getCountryCallingCode(country) functions so that a developer could construct their own custom country select. Such custom country <select/> could be used in conjunction with "without country select" input described above.

import { getCountries, getCountryCallingCode } from 'react-phone-number-input/input'
import en from 'react-phone-number-input/locale/en.json'

<select
  value={country}
  onChange={event => setCountry(event.target.value || undefined)}>
  <option value="">
    {en['ZZ']}
  </option>
  {getCountries().map((country) => (
    <option key={country} value={country}>
      {en[country]} +{getCountryCallingCode(country)}
    </option>
  ))}
</select>

See the demo for the example.

Flags

Including all country flags in the code in SVG format would be the best way to go but turns out they take an extra 550 kB when gzipped. That's the reason why all country flags are included as <img src="..."/> from flag-icon-css repo GitHub pages (can be overridden via flagsPath property).

To include all country flags in code in SVG format:

import PhoneInput from 'react-phone-number-input'
import flags from 'react-phone-number-input/flags'

<PhoneInput flags={flags} .../>

Localization

Language translations can be applied using the labels property. This component comes pre-packaged with several translations (submit pull requests for adding new language translations).

Where to get country names for any language.

Country names can be copy-pasted from github.com/umpirsky/country-list.

JSON.stringify(
  Object.keys(countries).sort()
    .reduce((all, country) => ({ ...all, [country]: countries[country] }), {}),
  null,
  '\t'
)

The labels format is:

{
  // Country `<select/>` `aria-label`.
  "country": "Country",
  // Phone number `<input/>` `aria-label`.
  // (not set by default)
  "phone": "Phone",
  // Phone number "extension" `aria-label`.
  // (not set by default)
  "ext": "ext.",
  // Country names.
  "AB": "Abkhazia",
  "AC": "Ascension Island",
  ...,
  "ZZ": "International"
}

An example of using translated labels:

import ru from 'react-phone-number-input/locale/ru'
<PhoneInput ... labels={ru}/>

By default, the country <select/> has aria-label set to labels.country which is "Country" for the default labels. When passing labels for other languages the default aria-label of the country <select/> will be translated too. To set a custom aria-label on the country <select/> pass a countrySelectAriaLabel property to <PhoneInput/>.

The phone <input/> aria-label is not set automatically to labels.phone for legacy reasons. To set it manually pass an aria-label property to <PhoneInput/>.

min vs max vs mobile

This component uses libphonenumber-js which requires choosing a "metadata" set to be used, "metadata" being a list of phone number parsing and formatting rules for all countries. The complete list of rules is huge, so libphonenumber-js provides a way to optimize bundle size by choosing between max, min, mobile and custom metadata:

  • max — The complete metadata set, is about 140 kilobytes in size (libphonenumber-js/metadata.full.json). Choose this when you need a strict version of isValidPhoneNumber(value) function, or if you need to get phone number type (fixed line, mobile, etc).

  • min — (default) The smallest metadata set, is about 75 kilobytes in size (libphonenumber-js/metadata.min.json). Doesn't contain regular expressions for advanced phone number validation (.isValid()) and determining phone number type (.getType()) for most countries. Some simple phone number validation via .isValid() still works (basic length check, etc), it's just that it's loose compared to the "advanced" validation (not so strict). Choose this by default: when you don't need to get phone number type (fixed line, mobile, etc), or when a non-strict version of isValidPhoneNumber(value) function is enough.

  • mobile — The complete metadata set for dealing with mobile numbers only, is about 105 kilobytes in size (libphonenumber-js/metadata.mobile.json). Choose this when you only work with mobile numbers and a strict version of isValidPhoneNumber(value) function is required for validating mobile numbers.

To use a particular metadata set import the component from the relevant sub-package: react-phone-number-input/max, react-phone-number-input/min or react-phone-number-input/mobile.

Importing the component directly from react-phone-number-input results in using the min metadata which means loose (non-strict) phone number validation.

Sometimes (rarely) not all countries are needed and in those cases the developers may want to generate their own "custom" metadata set. For those cases there's react-phone-number-input/core sub-package which doesn't come pre-wired with any default metadata and instead accepts the metadata as a property.

Bug reporting

If you think that the phone number parsing/formatting/validation engine malfunctions for a particular phone number then follow the bug reporting instructions in libphonenumber-js repo. Otherwise report issues in this repo.

Autocomplete

Make sure to put a <PhoneInput/> into a <form/> otherwise web-browser's "autocomplete" feature may not be working: a user will be selecting his phone number from the list but nothing will be happening.

With custom country <select/>

One can supply their own country <select/> component in case the native one doesn't fit the app. See countrySelectComponent property.

For example, one may choose react-responsive-ui's <Select/> component over the native country <select/>.

import 'react-phone-number-input/style.css'

// Requires "CSS custom properties" support.
// For Internet Explorer use PostCSS with "CSS custom properties" plugin.
import 'react-responsive-ui/style.css'

// A `<PhoneInput/>` with custom `countrySelectComponent`.
import PhoneInput from 'react-phone-number-input/react-responsive-ui'

return (
  <PhoneInput
    placeholder="Enter phone number"
    value={ this.state.phone }
    onChange={ phone => this.setState({ phone }) } />
)

Extensions

There's nothing special about a phone number extension input: it doesn't need any formatting, it can just be a simple <input type="number"/>. Still, some users kept asking for a phone number extension input feature. So I added a basic phone number extension input support. It can be activated by passing ext property (a React.Element, see the demo): in such case phone number extension input will appear to the right of the phone number input.

import React, { Component } from 'react'
import PhoneInput from 'react-phone-number-input'

class Form extends Component {
  render() {
    const ext = (
      <input
        value={ ... }
        onChange={ ... }
        type="number"
        noValidate />
    )

    return (
      <form onSubmit={ ... }>
        <PhoneInput
          value={ ... }
          onChange={ ... }
          ext={ ext } />

        <button type="submit">
          Submit
        </button>
      </form>
    );
  }
}

Phone number extensions can be stored in a database separately from the phone number itself, or they can be combined with the phone number itself into a single string using RFC3966 format.

import { formatRFC3966 } from 'react-phone-number-input'

formatRFC3966({ number: '+12133734253', ext: '123' })
// 'tel:+12133734253;ext=123'

The accompanying parseRFC3966() function can be used to convert an RFC3966 string into an object having shape { number, ext }.

import { parseRFC3966 } from 'react-phone-number-input'

parseRFC3966('tel:+12133734253;ext=123')
// { number: '+12133734253', ext: '123' }

Customizing

The <PhoneInput/> component accepts some customization properties:

  • metadata — Custom libphonenumber-js "metadata".

  • labels — Custom translation (including country names).

  • internationalIcon — Custom "International" icon.

  • numberInputComponent — Custom phone number <input/> component.

  • countrySelectComponent — Custom country <select/> component.

import PhoneInput from 'react-phone-number-input/min'

import metadata from 'libphonenumber-js/metadata.min.json'
import labels from 'react-phone-number-input/locale/ru'
import InternationalIcon from 'react-phone-number-input/international-icon'

<PhoneInput
  numberInputComponent={...}
  countrySelectComponent={...}
  labels={labels}
  metadata={metadata}
  internationalIcon={InternationalIcon}/>

All these customization properties have their default values. If some of those default values are not used, and the developer wants to reduce the bundle size a bit, then they can use the /core export instead of the default export to import a <PhoneInput/> component which doesn't include any of the default customization properties: in this case all customization properties must be passed.

import PhoneInput from 'react-phone-number-input/core'

countrySelectComponent

React component for the country select. See CountrySelectNative and CountrySelectReactResponsiveUI for an example.

Receives properties:

  • name : string? — HTML name attribute.
  • value : string? — The currently selected country code.
  • onChange(value : string?) — Updates the value.
  • onFocus() — Is used to toggle the --focus CSS class.
  • onBlur() — Is used to toggle the --focus CSS class.
  • options : object[] — The list of all selectable countries (including "International") each being an object of shape { value : string?, label : string, icon : React.Component }.
  • disabled : boolean? — HTML disabled attribute.
  • tabIndex : (number|string)? — HTML tabIndex attribute.
  • className : string — CSS class name.

numberInputComponent

React component for the phone number input field. Is "input" by default meaning that it renders a standard DOM <input/>.

Receives properties:

  • value: string — The formatted value.
  • onChange(event: Event) — Updates the formatted value from event.target.value.
  • onFocus() — Is used to toggle the --focus CSS class.
  • onBlur(event: Event) — Is used to toggle the --focus CSS class.
  • Other properties like type="tel" or autoComplete="tel" that should be passed through to the DOM <input/>.

Must also either use React.forwardRef() to "forward" ref to the <input/> or implement .focus() method.
