is-local-address

Regex for matching localhost alike URLs.

Note: There are Bogon IP address ranges not covered by this regex.

The intention of this package is to cover some of the most common cases.

If you need a more sophisticated solution, check is-localhost-ip.

Install

$ npm install is-local-address --save

Usage

The method exported by default supports IPv4 and IPv6 detection:

const isLocalAddress = require('is-local-address')

isLocalAddress(new URL('https://127.0.0.1').hostname) // true
isLocalAddress(new URL('http://[::]:3000').hostname) // true

You can also require the specific IPv4:

const isLocalAddress = require('is-local-address/ipv4')
isLocalAddress(new URL('https://127.0.0.1').hostname) // true

or just IPv6:

const isLocalAddress = require('is-local-address/ipv6')
isLocalAddress(new URL('http://[::]:3000').hostname) // true
