In order to get this example up-and-running quickly I used the following sources of info:
Filter non-digits from string

http://www.appcoda.com/ios-contacts-framework/
The code block below includes the authorisation check because I had to get it working in order to test in the simulator. The code is just the Single-View Apps view controller and you can connect up a UIButton in the Storyboard to the findContactInfoForPhoneNumber: method to get if to run. Output is to the console - you will need to replace these print statements with something else.
If you are not interested in the full view controller code then just look at the searchForContactUsingPhoneNumber(phoneNumber: String) method. I've followed Apple's advice in the docs to run the CNContact framework asynchronously.
The code strips all the +, - and ( symbols that could be in a phone number and just matches the digits so the phone number you pass in to match MUST be exactly the same.
