network-interfaces-plus v1.0.3
Network-interfaces-plus
This module provides a single function networkInterfaces() that is a clone of Node.js’ built-in os.networkInterfaces(), enhanced to provide more information about IPv6 addresses.
In addition to the properties documented for os.networkInterfaces(), address objects where family is IPv6 get the following properties:
temporary(boolean):trueif the address is a temporary one according to RFC 4941, otherwisefalsepreferred_lifetime(number): the time in seconds from now after which the address will become deprecated, 0 if expired already, 0xFFFFFFFF if infinitevalid_lifetime(number): the time in seconds from now after which the address will become invalid, 0 if expired already, 0xFFFFFFFF if infinite
Tested on macOS, Linux, and Windows with Node.js 8.16 – 20.11. May work on other BSDs with little effort.
Most of the code is taken with minimal modification from Node.js and libuv.
