## Usage

```js
import {mergeCidr, excludeCidr, expandCidr, overlapCidr, containsCidr, normalizeCidr, parseCidr} from "cidr-tools";

mergeCidr(["1.0.0.0/24", "1.0.1.0/24"]);
//=> ["1.0.0.0/23"]

excludeCidr(["::1/127"], "::1/128");
//=> ["::/128"]

Array.from(expandCidr(["2001:db8::/126"]));
//=> ["2001:db8::", "2001:db8::1", "2001:db8::2", "2001:db8::3"]

overlapCidr("1.0.0.0/24", "1.0.0.128/25");
//=> true

containsCidr(["1.0.0.0/24", "2.0.0.0/24"], "1.0.0.1");
//=> true

normalizeCidr("::ffff/64");
//=> "::/64"

parseCidr("::/64");
// => {cidr: "::/64", version: 6, prefix: "64", start: 0n, end: 18446744073709551615n}
```

## API

All functions take CIDR addresses or single IP addresses. On single addresses, a prefix of `/32` or `/128` is assumed. Function that return networks will return a merged and sorted set of networks with IPv4 sorted before IPv6.

It is expected that the passed CIDRs and IPs are validated as the module's own input validation is rudimentary. You are encouraged to use modules like [is-cidr](https://github.com/silverwind/is-cidr) and [is-ip](https://github.com/sindresorhus/is-ip) to validate before passing to this module.

This module requires [BigInt](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/BigInt#browser_compatibility) support in your environment.

### mergeCidr(networks)

- `networks` *String* or *Array*: One or more CIDR or IP addresses.

Returns an array of merged networks.

### excludeCidr(baseNetworks, excludeNetworks)

- `baseNetworks` *String* or *Array*: One or more CIDR or IP addresses.
- `excludeNetworks` *String* or *Array*: One or more CIDR or IP addresses to exclude from `baseNetworks`.

Returns an array of merged remaining networks of the subtraction of `excludeNetworks` from `baseNetworks`.

### expandCidr(networks)

- `networks` *String* or *Array*: One or more CIDR or IP addresses.

Returns a generator for individual IPs contained in the networks.

Be aware that passing large networks that contain millions of IPs can result in memory exhaustion and slow execution time. It's recommended to validate the amount of IPs first, for example, like this:

```js
import {parseCidr} from "cidr-tools";

const {start, end} = parseCidr("1.2.3.4/2");
if (end - start >= 1000000n) {
throw new Error("Too many IPs");
}
```

### overlapCidr(networksA, networksB)

- `networksA` *String* or *Array*: One or more CIDR or IP address.
- `networksB` *String* or *Array*: One or more CIDR or IP address.

Returns a boolean that indicates if `networksA` overlap (intersect) with `networksB`.

### containsCidr(networksA, networksB)

- `networksA` *String* or *Array*: One or more CIDR or IP address.
- `networksB` *String* or *Array*: One or more CIDR or IP address.

Returns a boolean that indicates whether `networksA` fully contain all `networksB`.

### normalizeCidr(networks, [opts])

- `networks` *String* or *Array*: One or more CIDR or IP address.

Returns a string or array (depending on input) with a normalized representation. Will not include a prefix on single IPs. Will set network address to the start of the network.

`opts`: *Object*
- `compress`: Whether to compress the IP. For IPv6, this means the "best representation" all-lowercase shortest possible form. Default: `true`.
- `hexify`: Whether to convert IPv4-Mapped IPv6 addresses to hex. Default: `false`.

### parseCidr(network)

- `network` *String*: A CIDR or IP address.

Returns a `parsed` Object which is used internally by this module. It can be used to test whether the passed network is IPv4 or IPv6 or to work with the BigInts directly.

`parsed`: *Object*
- `cidr` String: The CIDR of the network.
- `ip` String: The IP address inside the CIDR, including any `%scopeid` if present.
- `version` Number: IP protocol version. Either `4` or `6`.
- `prefix` String: The network prefix, e.g. `64`.
- `prefixPresent` Boolean: Whether the passed string has a network prefix.
- `start` BigInt: Start number of the network.
- `end` BigInt: End number of the network.
