EctoNetwork

Ecto types to support MACADDR and Network extensions provided by Postgrex.

Although this is primarily an Ecto library, it has a hard dependency on Postgrex due to the types it is providing.

Installation

Add :ecto_network to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    # or 0.7.0 if you're stuck on Ecto < 3
    {:ecto_network, "~> 1.5.0"}
  ]
end

Create your migrations using the Postgres types as atoms.

def change do
  create table(:your_table) do
    add :ip_address, :inet
    add :mac_address, :macaddr
    add :network, :cidr
  end
end

Use the new types in your Ecto schemas.

schema "your_table" do
  field :ip_address, EctoNetwork.INET
  field :mac_address, EctoNetwork.MACADDR
  field :network, EctoNetwork.CIDR
end
