Library documentation +is available +at +[https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr](https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr). +The primary intent of the library was to make it possible to define heuristics +for selecting the correct IP addresses when a configuration is evaluated at +runtime. See +the +[docs](https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr), +[`template` package](https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr/template), +tests, +and +[CLI utility](https://github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr/tree/master/cmd/sockaddr) +for details and hints as to how to use this library. + +For example, with this library it is possible to find an IP address that: + +* is attached to a default route + ([`GetDefaultInterfaces()`](https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr#GetDefaultInterfaces)) +* is contained within a CIDR block ([`IfByNetwork()`](https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr#IfByNetwork)) +* is an RFC1918 address + ([`IfByRFC("1918")`](https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr#IfByRFC)) +* is ordered + ([`OrderedIfAddrBy(args)`](https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr#OrderedIfAddrBy) where + `args` includes, but is not limited + to, + [`AscIfType`](https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr#AscIfType), + [`AscNetworkSize`](https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr#AscNetworkSize)) +* excludes all IPv6 addresses + ([`IfByType("^(IPv4)$")`](https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr#IfByType)) +* is larger than a `/32` + ([`IfByMaskSize(32)`](https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr#IfByMaskSize)) +* is not on a `down` interface + ([`ExcludeIfs("flags", "down")`](https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr#ExcludeIfs)) +* preferences an IPv6 address over an IPv4 address + ([`SortIfByType()`](https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr#SortIfByType) + + [`ReverseIfAddrs()`](https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr#ReverseIfAddrs)); and +* excludes any IP in RFC6890 address + ([`IfByRFC("6890")`](https://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr#IfByRFC)) + +Or any combination or variation therein. + +There are also a few simple helper functions such as `GetPublicIP` and +`GetPrivateIP` which both return strings and select the first public or private +IP address on the default interface, respectively. Similarly, there is also a +helper function called `GetInterfaceIP` which returns the first usable IP +address on the named interface. + +## `sockaddr` CLI + +Given the possible complexity of the `sockaddr` library, there is a CLI utility +that accompanies the library, also +called +[`sockaddr`](https://github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr/tree/master/cmd/sockaddr). +The +[`sockaddr`](https://github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr/tree/master/cmd/sockaddr) +utility exposes nearly all of the functionality of the library and can be used +either as an administrative tool or testing tool. To install +the +[`sockaddr`](https://github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr/tree/master/cmd/sockaddr), +run: + +```text +$ go get -u github.com/hashicorp/go-sockaddr/cmd/sockaddr +``` + +If you're familiar with UNIX's `sockaddr` struct's, the following diagram +mapping the C `sockaddr` (top) to `go-sockaddr` structs (bottom) and +interfaces will be helpful: + +``` ++-------------------------------------------------------+ +| | +| sockaddr | +| SockAddr | +| | +| +--------------+ +----------------------------------+ | +| | sockaddr_un | | | | +| | SockAddrUnix | | sockaddr_in{,6} | | +| +--------------+ | IPAddr | | +| | | | +| | +-------------+ +--------------+ | | +| | | sockaddr_in | | sockaddr_in6 | | | +| | | IPv4Addr | | IPv6Addr | | | +| | +-------------+ +--------------+ | | +| | | | +| +----------------------------------+ | +| | ++-------------------------------------------------------+ +``` + +## Inspiration and Design + +There were many subtle inspirations that led to this design, but the most direct +inspiration for the filtering syntax was +OpenBSD's +[`pf.conf(5)`](https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=pf.conf&apropos=0&sektion=0&arch=default&format=html#PARAMETERS) firewall +syntax that lets you select the first IP address on a given named interface. +The original problem stemmed from: + +* needing to create immutable images using [Packer](https://www.packer.io) that + ran the [Consul](https://www.consul.io) process (Consul can only use one IP + address at a time); +* images that may or may not have multiple interfaces or IP addresses at + runtime; and +* we didn't want to rely on configuration management to render out the correct + IP address if the VM image was being used in an auto-scaling group. + +Instead we needed some way to codify a heuristic that would correctly select the +right IP address but the input parameters were not known when the image was +created. -- cgit v1.2.3
