Overview

About

Maintained by Bart TurczynskiCRAN page ↗GitLab ↗Issues ↗

Standards and implementations disagree about what an IP address literal means: the string "0177.0.0.1" is rejected by the dotted-quad grammar, read as 127.0.0.1 by browsers, and read as 177.0.0.1 by some 'inet_pton' implementations. Most libraries pick one reading and discard the rest. This package reports them all, alongside the reason codes that explain each one, and classifies parsed values against the IANA special-purpose address registries. It is pure R, performs no network access, and returns facts rather than allow or deny verdicts.

Changes in 0.1.2

First published release. 0.1.0 and 0.1.1 were tagged during development, on

2026-07-31 and 2026-08-02, and neither was submitted anywhere; 0.1.2 supersedes

both and is the version to install. Everything in the notes below is present

here.

URL: and BugReports: name the GitLab repository. They previously named a GitHub account that no longer exists, so both fields resolved to 404.
No user-visible behavior change from 0.1.1. The exported functions, the six dialects and the reason-code table are identical; the since column reads 0.1.2 because that is the first release a consumer can obtain.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("raddr", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("bart-turczynski/raddr")

Development version from bart-turczynski/raddr. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-raddr

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-raddr

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-raddr

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
