1234:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:000A -> 1234::a

Parameters:ip (string) – An IP address. Return type:string Returns:The cleaned up IP.

Exscript.util.ip.is_ip(string)

Returns True if the given string is an IPv4 or IPv6 address, False otherwise.

Parameters:string (string) – Any string. Return type:bool Returns:True if the string is an IP address, False otherwise.

Exscript.util.ip.normalize_ip(ip)

Transform the address into a fixed-length form, such as:

192.168.0.1 -> 192.168.000.001 1234::A -> 1234:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:000a

Parameters:ip (string) – An IP address. Return type:string Returns:The normalized IP.
