macaddr is a library for parsing and manipulating MAC addresses in JavaScript.
npm install macaddr
parse(input)
Parses a string representing and returns a MAC
object representing the
address. A MAC address may be in any of the following forms:
01:02:03:04:05:06
01-02-03-04-05-06
010203040506
When using :
or -
as a separator, the leading zero in an octet can be
dropped. For example:
1:2:3:4:5:6
1-2-3-4-5-6
If parse(input)
is called with a number, it is interpreted as a 48-bit
integer representing the MAC address.
MAC
MAC#toString([opts])
Returns the string representation of the MAC address. An optional options object allows for controlling the output, and takes the following fields:
zeroPad
(default: true
), whether to pad octets that could print as a
single character with a 0
.separator
(default: ':'
), separator between octets.octetFormatter
(default: (none)), a function that takes the integer
octet as the argument and returns the formatted octet. If zeroPad
is
true, pad up to two characters.MAC#toLong()
Returns the 48-bit integer representation of the MAC address.
MAC#compare(other)
Compares the MAC address to another MAC
object, to determine if they
represent the same value. If the other MAC address has a larger 48-bit
representation, this method returns -1
. If it has a smaller 48-bit
representation, then it returns 1
. If the two addresses are equivalent,
then the result is 0
.
