Function list

Name Summary
NET.HOST Gets the hostname from a URL.
NET.IP_FROM_STRING Converts an IPv4 or IPv6 address from a STRING value to a BYTES value in network byte order.
NET.IP_NET_MASK Gets a network mask.
NET.IP_TO_STRING Converts an IPv4 or IPv6 address from a BYTES value in network byte order to a STRING value.
NET.IP_TRUNC Converts a BYTES IPv4 or IPv6 address in network byte order to a BYTES subnet address.
NET.IPV4_FROM_INT64 Converts an IPv4 address from an INT64 value to a BYTES value in network byte order.
NET.IPV4_TO_INT64 Converts an IPv4 address from a BYTES value in network byte order to an INT64 value.
NET.PUBLIC_SUFFIX Gets the public suffix from a URL.
NET.REG_DOMAIN Gets the registered or registrable domain from a URL.
NET.SAFE_IP_FROM_STRING Similar to the NET.IP_FROM_STRING, but returns NULL instead of producing an error if the input is invalid.

NET.HOST

NET.HOST(url)

Description

Takes a URL as a STRING value and returns the host. For best results, URL values should comply with the format as defined by RFC 3986. If the URL value does not comply with RFC 3986 formatting, this function makes a best effort to parse the input and return a relevant result. If the function cannot parse the input, it returns NULL.

Return Data Type

STRING

Example

SELECT
  FORMAT("%T", input) AS input,
  description,
  FORMAT("%T", NET.HOST(input)) AS host,
  FORMAT("%T", NET.PUBLIC_SUFFIX(input)) AS suffix,

NET.IP_FROM_STRING

NET.IP_FROM_STRING(addr_str)

Description

Converts an IPv4 or IPv6 address from text (STRING) format to binary (BYTES) format in network byte order.

This function supports the following formats for addr_str:

  • IPv4: Dotted-quad format. For example, 10.1.2.3.
  • IPv6: Colon-separated format. For example, 1234:5678:90ab:cdef:1234:5678:90ab:cdef. For more examples, see the IP Version 6 Addressing Architecture.

This function does not support CIDR notation, such as 10.1.2.3/32.

If this function receives a NULL input, it returns NULL. If the input is considered invalid, an OUT_OF_RANGE error occurs.

NET.IP_NET_MASK

NET.IP_NET_MASK(num_output_bytes, prefix_length)

Description

Returns a network mask: a byte sequence with length equal to num_output_bytes, where the first prefix_length bits are set to 1 and the other bits are set to 0. num_output_bytes and prefix_length are INT64. This function throws an error if num_output_bytes is not 4 (for IPv4) or 16 (for IPv6). It also throws an error if prefix_length is negative or greater than 8 * num_output_bytes.

NET.IP_TO_STRING

NET.IP_TO_STRING(addr_bin)

Description Converts an IPv4 or IPv6 address from binary (BYTES) format in network byte order to text (STRING) format.

If the input is 4 bytes, this function returns an IPv4 address as a STRING. If the input is 16 bytes, it returns an IPv6 address as a STRING.

If this function receives a NULL input, it returns NULL. If the input has a length different from 4 or 16, an OUT_OF_RANGE error occurs.

Return Data Type

NET.IP_TRUNC

NET.IP_TRUNC(addr_bin, prefix_length)

Description Takes addr_bin, an IPv4 or IPv6 address in binary (BYTES) format in network byte order, and returns a subnet address in the same format. The result has the same length as addr_bin, where the first prefix_length bits are equal to those in addr_bin and the remaining bits are 0.

This function throws an error if LENGTH(addr_bin) is not 4 or 16, or if prefix_len is negative or greater than LENGTH(addr_bin) * 8.

Return Data Type

NET.IPV4_FROM_INT64

NET.IPV4_FROM_INT64(integer_value)

Description

Converts an IPv4 address from integer format to binary (BYTES) format in network byte order. In the integer input, the least significant bit of the IP address is stored in the least significant bit of the integer, regardless of host or client architecture. For example, 1 means 0.0.0.1, and 0x1FF means 0.0.1.255.

This function checks that either all the most significant 32 bits are 0, or all the most significant 33 bits are 1 (sign-extended from a 32-bit integer). In other words, the input should be in the range [-0x80000000, 0xFFFFFFFF]; otherwise, this function throws an error.

This function does not support IPv6.

Return Data Type

BYTES

Example

SELECT x, x_hex, FORMAT("%T", NET.IPV4_FROM_INT64(x)) AS ipv4_from_int64
FROM (
  SELECT CAST(x_hex AS INT64) x, x_hex

NET.IPV4_TO_INT64

NET.IPV4_TO_INT64(addr_bin)

Description

Converts an IPv4 address from binary (BYTES) format in network byte order to integer format. In the integer output, the least significant bit of the IP address is stored in the least significant bit of the integer, regardless of host or client architecture. For example, 1 means 0.0.0.1, and 0x1FF means 0.0.1.255. The output is in the range [0, 0xFFFFFFFF].

If the input length is not 4, this function throws an error.

This function does not support IPv6.

Return Data Type

NET.PUBLIC_SUFFIX

NET.PUBLIC_SUFFIX(url)

Description

Takes a URL as a STRING value and returns the public suffix (such as com, org, or net). A public suffix is an ICANN domain registered at publicsuffix.org. For best results, URL values should comply with the format as defined by RFC 3986. If the URL value does not comply with RFC 3986 formatting, this function makes a best effort to parse the input and return a relevant result.

This function returns NULL if any of the following is true:

  • It cannot parse the host from the input;
  • The parsed host contains adjacent dots in the middle (not leading or trailing);
  • The parsed host does not contain any public suffix.

Before looking up the public suffix, this function temporarily normalizes the host by converting uppercase English letters to lowercase and encoding all non-ASCII characters with Punycode. The function then returns the public suffix as part of the original host instead of the normalized host.

Return Data Type

STRING

Example

SELECT
  FORMAT("%T", input) AS input,
  description,
  FORMAT("%T", NET.HOST(input)) AS host,
  FORMAT("%T", NET.PUBLIC_SUFFIX(input)) AS suffix,
  FORMAT("%T", NET.REG_DOMAIN(input)) AS domain

NET.REG_DOMAIN

NET.REG_DOMAIN(url)

Description

Takes a URL as a string and returns the registered or registrable domain (the public suffix plus one preceding label), as a string. For best results, URL values should comply with the format as defined by RFC 3986. If the URL value does not comply with RFC 3986 formatting, this function makes a best effort to parse the input and return a relevant result.

This function returns NULL if any of the following is true:

  • It cannot parse the host from the input;
  • The parsed host contains adjacent dots in the middle (not leading or trailing);
  • The parsed host does not contain any public suffix;
  • The parsed host contains only a public suffix without any preceding label.

Before looking up the public suffix, this function temporarily normalizes the host by converting uppercase English letters to lowercase and encoding all non-ASCII characters with Punycode. The function then returns the registered or registerable domain as part of the original host instead of the normalized host.
