Provider Methods

e164(region_code=None, valid=True, possible=True) -> str

Generate a random phone number for the given region_code, if region_code is None then a random region will be selected for you. The valid and possible arguments toggle validation from the python-phonenumbers library, the relevant methods are is_valid_number and is_possible_number.

safe_e164(region_code=None) -> str

Return a phone number from a list of "safe numbers" as per https://fakenumber.org/. Supported regions are "AU", "US", "GB", and "CA".

Note: GB numbers are treated as invalid by the phonenumbers package, to get around this please use the region_code arg. For example: .safe_e164('AU').
