Hi all,
I just discovered Django and i'm using GenericIPAddressField in my fisrt
app.
I currently use Django 1.6.11 and i'm facing a problem with ipv6 validator.
I ran the following test case:
***********
from django.utils.ipv6 import is_valid_ipv6_address
def check_ipv6_validator(ipv6):
print '%s - length: %s - is_valid_ipv6_address: %s' % (ipv6,
len(ipv6),
is_valid_ipv6_address(ipv6),
)
def test_ipv6_validator():
unvalid_ipv6 = "aaaa:bbbb:cccc:dddd:eeee:ffff:aaaa:255.255.255.255"
valid_ipv6 = "aaaa:bbbb:cccc:dddd:eeee:ffff:255.255.255.255"
check_ipv6_validator(unvalid_ipv6)
check_ipv6_validator(valid_ipv6)
test_ipv6_validator()
***********
which returns :
aaaa:bbbb:cccc:dddd:eeee:ffff:aaaa:255.255.255.255 - length: 50 -
is_valid_ipv6_address: True
aaaa:bbbb:cccc:dddd:eeee:ffff:255.255.255.255 - length: 45 -
is_valid_ipv6_address: True
There are two problems here :
The 1st ipv6 is said valid whereas it's not... (
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4291#section-2.2)
The 2nd ipv6 is correctly said valid but its length is 45 while
GenericIPAddressField max length is 39.
I checked in the git master repository and django.utils.ipv6 doesn't seem
to have changed on this matter. Thus the problem is propbably still there.
Are these bugs that should be reported ? (incorrect max length and
incorrect ipv6 validation )
Regards
