API

ipRegex(options?)

Returns a regex for matching both IPv4 and IPv6.

ipRegex.v4(options?)

Returns a regex for matching IPv4.

ipRegex.v6(options?)

Returns a regex for matching IPv6.

options

Type: object

exact

Type: boolean\ Default: false (Matches any IP address in a string)

Only match an exact string. Useful with RegExp#test() to check if a string is an IP address.

includeBoundaries

Type: boolean\ Default: false

Include boundaries in the regex. When true, 192.168.0.2000000000 will report as an invalid IPv4 address. If this option is not set, the mentioned IPv4 address would report as valid (ignoring the trailing zeros).
