RegExp::Common::URI::tel(3)
NAME
Regexp::Common::URI::tel -- Returns a pattern for telephone URIs.
SYNOPSIS
use Regexp::Common qw /URI/; while (<>) { /$RE{URI}{tel}/ and print "Contains a telephone URI.\n"; }
DESCRIPTION
$RE{URI}{tel} Returns a pattern that matches tel URIs, as defined by RFC 2806. Under "{-keep}", the following are returned: $1 The complete URI. $2 The scheme. $3 The phone number, including any possible add-ons like ISDN subaddress, a post dial part, area specifier, service provider, etc. $RE{URI}{tel}{nofuture} As above (including what's returned by "{-keep}"), with the exception that future extensions are not allowed. Without allowing those future extensions, it becomes much easier to check a URI if the correct syntax for post dial, service provider, phone context, etc has been used - otherwise the regex could always classify them as a future extension.
