Hey, folks. I'm looking for some regular expressions to help grab street addresses and phone numbers from free-form text (a la Gmail).
Given some text: "John, I went to the store today, and it was awesome! Did you hear that they moved to 500 Green St.? ... Give me a call at +14252425424 when you get a chance."
I'd like to be able to pull out:
500 Green St.
(recognized as a street address)
+14252425424
(recognized as a phone number)
What makes this problem easier is that I don't care about parsing text that gets pulled out. That is, I don't care that Green
is the name of the road or that 425
is the area code. I just want to grab strings that "look like" addresses or telephone numbers.
Unfortunately, this needs to work internationally, as best as possible.
Anyone have any leads? Thanks!
