Description
The IP class provides a user-friendly approach to parsing and managing various notations associated with both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses and networks. Drawing significant inspiration from the interface of RIPE’s Perl module NET::IP, it diverges in its implementation strategy. Notably, it does not accommodate non-CIDR netmasks, ruling out unconventional formats like a netmask of 0xffffff0f. This class is capable of recognizing around a dozen distinct formats for expressing IP addresses and networks, effectively distinguishing between IPv4 and IPv6 types. Most methods in the class that yield a string feature an optional parameter called ‘wantprefixlen,’ which dictates whether the prefix length or netmask is displayed. By default, the prefix length is shown when a network encompasses multiple addresses, though these defaults can be modified on an individual object basis through adjustments to the class members. The flexibility in customization ensures that developers can tailor the output to fit their specific needs.
Description
This package is designed for independent reuse across any Python project and is maintained by the Zope Toolkit initiative. It serves as an implementation of "object interfaces" within the Python ecosystem. Interfaces act as a way to designate objects as adhering to a specific API or contract, making this package a practical example of applying the Design By Contract methodology in Python. Essentially, interfaces are objects that detail (document) the expected external behavior of the objects that implement them. An interface articulates behavior through a combination of informal documentation within a docstring, attribute definitions, and invariants, which are the necessary conditions that must be satisfied by the objects implementing the interface. Attribute definitions specify particular attributes, outlining their names while offering documentation and constraints regarding the allowed values for those attributes. These definitions can take various forms, allowing for flexibility in how they are expressed. Furthermore, the ability to define interfaces enhances the clarity and reliability of code by ensuring that objects conform to specified behaviors.
