valid? resets input parameter

[martinmalek]

Whenever I send a parameter which is not a valid phone number Phoner::Phone.valid?(myParam) it is reset and returned as ""

Example: myParam = "ABC123" Phoner::Phone.valid?(myParam) => false myParam is now ""

Thanks for the report @martinmalek. I consider this a bug.

Hi @martinmalek, I released v1.3.0.beta0 today with some tests around the issue that you've reports. I can't reproduce them here. Is there something I'm missing?

[elskwid]

A little more information, there was a huge issue with the extension extraction code mutating the parameters. It's possible that this commit fixes the issue you've been seeing.

I'm on 1.2.3.

Seeing this issue.

> raw_number
=> "1-801-848-3641 x02104"
> Phoner::Phone.valid?(raw_number)
=> true
> raw_number
=> "1-801-848-3641"

Going to see if 1.3.0 fixes this.

[hoguej]

Don't know if this is the same bug or a new one, but still getting this result after updating to 1.3.0beta0

[hoguej]

Wow, not the only function that has that issue. This also modifies raw_number... that's terrible.

 Phoner::Phone.parse(raw_number)

[elskwid]

@hoguej Took me long enough!!!

I don't believe that the parameter modification is an issue. There are tests to explicitly test for the modification when using #valid? and I just added one (a6e6ab0ce00) to make sure #parse is safe.

For anyone who is using an older version of the gem (or until this is fixed in the most recent release) this worked for me. EDIT: it should go in an initializer.

module Phoner
  class Phone
    def self.parse_with_duplication(string, options = {})
      parse_without_duplication(string.try(:dup), options)
    end

    singleton_class.alias_method_chain :parse, :duplication
  end
end

@calebanderson have you tried using the beta?

[calebanderson]

I haven't, but the sub! in line makes me think it could still be an issue: https://github.com/carr/phone/blob/v1.3.0.beta0/lib/phone.rb#L192

[elskwid]

@calebanderson good call! I fixed that and never pushed out a new release. I can release a new beta later - any chance you can try with master?

[calebanderson]

@elskwid Sure I'll give it a shot. I've already looked over the code quite a bit and everything looked good.

[calebanderson]

@elskwid Everything I checked out seems to be working great, at least as far as I can tell given my little knowledge about international phone numbers.

[elskwid]

@calebanderson I will push out a new version as soon as I get a chance (tonight or tomorrow morning). Will keep you posted. Thanks so much!!

[elskwid]

@calebanderson took longer than expected (what doesn't??!?!) but v1.3.0.beta1 is out for you. If it works I'll push out the final version in the days to come.
