What is IPy?

The IP class offers an intuitive way to interpret and handle different notations related to both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses and networks. While it is heavily influenced by the design of RIPE’s Perl module NET::IP, it takes a distinct path in its implementation. Importantly, it does not support non-CIDR netmasks, excluding unusual formats such as a netmask represented by 0xffffff0f. This class can identify approximately twelve unique formats for representing IP addresses and networks, effectively differentiating between IPv4 and IPv6. Most of the class methods that return a string include an optional parameter named ‘wantprefixlen,’ which determines if the output includes the prefix length or netmask. By default, the prefix length is provided when a network contains multiple addresses; however, these defaults can be adjusted per object through changes to the class attributes. This level of customization allows developers to modify the output according to their specific requirements, enhancing the class's utility in various applications. Consequently, the IP class stands out as a robust tool for developers working with IP addressing and networking.
