I suppose you are using the Resources meta-resource type to perform your
purging. I think you can achieve what you're after by setting up
appropriate relationships between that meta-resource and your Ipaddress
resources, either via the 'require' and/or 'before' metaparameters, or via
the chain operators. I'd probably try declaring the resource purge
something like this:
resources { 'ipaddress': purge => true }
-> Ipaddress<| |>
If for some reason you need to separate declaration of the Resources
resource from declaration of the relationships, then you could instead put
this almost anywhere:
Resources['ipaddress'] -> Ipaddress<| |>
You could also make each Ipaddress declaration 'require'
Resources['ipaddress'], but that's a little lumpier.
