format_ipv4_mask

Formats an IPv4 address as a CIDR, `a.b.c.d/N`, keeping the leading bits of the smaller of its own /mask and the optional prefix.

With neither, the mask is /32. The address may be a string or a long. An invalid address or a prefix outside 0-32 gives an empty string.

Syntax

format_ipv4_mask(ip)

Parameters

Prop

Type

Given a dynamic field

This parameter is string-only. In permissive mode — the default — almost every field arrives as a dynamic, so passing one works because Berserk injects asstring: extract-or-null, the value when it really is a string and null otherwise, so the call yields null (a predicate yields false). A property bag or array is therefore not matched, and tostring() is never applied implicitly — use it explicitly to match a bag's JSON text, keys included. Strict mode rejects the dynamic instead of coercing it. See String coercion and the asXXX family.

Returns: string
