dart phone number metadata converted to dart from libphonenumber

Hi there 👋

dart_phone_metadata's Issues

Don't duplicate metadata between light and extended?

Hi!
I discover the library and notice one small thing (I might be wrong).
It seems extendedMetadataByIsoCode is a super set of lightMetadataByIsoCode. And extendedMetadata duplicate all the data from lightMetadata.
I'm a bit worried that it is super easy to use both the LightParser and FullParser without noticing. So we will end up pulling both light and extended metadata. Thus, increasing the code size and the memory.

Is it possible to re-organise the metadata so the extendedMetadata only reference the added data. So there is no duplication?

const metaData = /* all shared data */
const extendedMetaData = /* only the extra info */

Metadata json update

Hi, thanks for the package :)

I have kind request to update the metadata json - it's 8 months old and we got some new providers in Philippines that aren't supported by the current version.

Thank you!

Please Update, libphonenumber v8.12.52 released July 19, 2022

Thanks!

Toll Free Numbers are Excluded when Generating Data

Your parsed metadata does not include the following types of numbers:

• tollFree
• premiumRate
• sharedCost
• uan
• pager
• personalNumber
• voip
• noInternationalDialing
• voicemail

The problem with this is that cedvdb/phone_numbers_parser isValid() now returns false for [phone] which is not true, that is a valid US Toll Free number.

[Feature request] ci cron job to update metadata

Currently the metadata are updated manually.

It would be nice if someone could write a github action that would make this process automatic, once every month.

Improve the update metadata mechanism

Currently the update steps for updating the metadata are a bit manual as opposed to run a simple script.

the steps are described in resources/readme. A better alternative would be to make an update.sh script that's a run and done thing so it's easier for people to contribute (and for this library to stay up to date with the latest metadata).

The update.sh script would:

• fetch lib phone number metadata.xml
• convert the xml to json (using libphonenuber update.sh thing)
• convert the generated json into our own json format
• convert the json format into the dart metadata files.
• clean garbage at the end.

remaining manual steps (or maybe could be automated):

• bump pubspec.yaml version
• add changelog line "# semver: updated metadata"

The goal here is to reduce the friction as to reupdate the metadata in the future although it's arguably fine now.
