How to use

Here's an example of calling IPExtractor constructor and using the extraction or just validation mechanisms

Extraction

from pyipextract import IPExtractor

input_str = "This is a string which contains valid IPs 192.168.1.1, 1.1.1.1 and an invalid IP 256.444.22.22"
ip_extractor = IPExtractor()
extracted_ips = ip_extractor.extract(input_str)
print(extracted_ips) 

Output:

['192.168.1.1', '1.1.1.1']

Validation

from pyipextract import IPExtractor

ips = ["192.168.1.1", "256.444.22.22", "1.1.1.1111"]
ip_extractor = IPExtractor()
for value in ips:
    if ip_extractor.validate(value):
        print("Valid IP: {}".format(value))
    else:
        print("Invalid IP: {}".format(value))

Output

Valid IP: 192.168.1.1
Invalid IP: 256.444.22.22
Invalid IP: 1.1.1.1111
