Best way to remove extension in PID-13.7 and PID14.7 when length can vary?

Question

The below works, but is there a better way?

if(message.checkNodeExists('PID-13.7')){
var hmphn = source.getNode("PID-13");
hmphn = hmphn.substring(6, 14);
message.setNode("PID-13.7", hmphn);
}

Answer 1

//Get the phone number and remove all non numerical values

var phoneNum = source.getNode("PID-14").replaceAll('\\D+', '');

 

//Parse the phone number into the individual elements

var areaCode = phoneNum.substring(0,3);

var prefix = phoneNum.substring(3,6);

var number = phoneNum.substring(6,10);

var ext = phoneNum.substring(10);

 

//Determine the phone number length and set back into message with appropriate formating.

if (StringUtils.length(phoneNum) === 7) {

   message.setNode('PID-14', '(' + areaCode + ')' + prefix + '-' + number);

} else if (StringUtils.length(phoneNum) === 10) {

   message.setNode('PID-14', '(' + areaCode + ')' + prefix + '-' + phoneNum.substring(6,10));

} else if (StringUtils.length(phoneNum) > 10) {

   //Use the next line if you do not want the extention

   message.setNode('PID-14', '(' + areaCode + ')' + prefix + '-' + phoneNum.substring(6,10));

   //Use the next line if you want to include the extention instead of the one above.

   //message.setNode('PID-14', '(' + areaCode + ')' + prefix + '-' + phoneNum.substring(6,10) + ' x' + ext);

}

 

//If you don't want to include the visual characters in the phone number you would just use the areaCode + prefix + number variables.

// e.g.    message.setNode('PID-14', areaCode + prefix + number);
