NAME

       DBIx::Class::InflateColumn::IP - Auto-create NetAddr::IP objects from columns.

SYNOPSIS

       Load this component and declare columns as IP addresses with the appropriate format.

	   package Host;
	   __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/InflateColumn::IP Core/);
	   __PACKAGE__->add_columns(
	       ip_address => {
		   data_type => 'bigint',
		   is_nullable => 0,
		   is_ip => 1,
		   ip_format => 'numeric',
	       }
	   );

	   package Network;
	   __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/InflateColumn::IP Core/);
	   __PACKAGE__->add_columns(
	       address => {
		   data_type => 'varchar',
		   size        => 18
		   is_nullable => 0,
		   is_ip => 1,
		   ip_format => 'cidr',
	       }
	   );

       Then you can treat the specified column as a NetAddr::IP object.

	   print 'IP address: ', $host->ip_address->addr;
	   print 'Address type: ', $host->ip_address->iptype;

       DBIx::Class::InflateColumn::IP supports a limited amount of auto-detection of the format based on the column type. If the type begins with
       "int" or "bigint", it's assumed to be numeric, while "inet" and "cidr" (as used by e.g. PostgreSQL) are assumed to be "cidr" format.

METHODS

   ip_class
       Arguments: $class

       Gets/sets the address class that the columns should be inflated into.  The default class is NetAddr::IP.

   ip_format
       Arguments: $format

       Gets/sets the name of the method used to deflate the address for the database. This must return a value suitable for "$ip_class-"new(); The
       default format is "addr", which returns the address in dotted-quad notation. See "Methods" in NetAddr::IP for suitable values.

   register_column
       Chains with "register_column" in DBIx::Class::Row, and sets up IP address columns appropriately. This would not normally be called directly
       by end users.
