Rails number_to_phone: Remove country code from phone number

Question

I have an application that stores phone numbers as '+11231231234'. To make it easier for the user, I convert it to: +1(123) 123-1234 in the view. I use the number_to_phone helper in rails to do it:

<%= number_to_phone(call.From, :area_code => true) %>

I also want to remove the +1 from the view. What would I need to write to remove the first two characters of the phone number if the first two characters are +1?

Answer 1

number_to_phone(call.From, :area_code => true).gsub(/^\+\d/, '')
