I have below python code, which works for converting ipv6 address to number and number to address
def ipv6_to_number(ipv6): # Split the IPv6 address into segments parts = ipv6.split(':') # Expand the shorthand notation expanded_parts = [] for part in parts: if part == '': # Handle the '::' shorthand by inserting zeros missing_zeroes = 8 - len([p for p in parts if p]) expanded_parts.extend(['0'] * missing_zeroes) else: expanded_parts.append(part) # Convert each segment to a 16-bit number and concatenate them number = 0 for part in expanded_parts: number = (number << 16) + int(part, 16) return numberdef number_to_ipv6(number): # Extract each 16-bit block from the number parts = [] for i in range(8): parts.insert(0, format(number & 0xFFFF, 'x')) number >>= 16 # Join the blocks with ':' and handle the shorthand '::' ipv6 = ':'.join(parts) # Compress the longest sequence of zero blocks to '::' ipv6 = ipv6.replace(':0000:', '::', 1) return ipv6.replace('::0', '::')ipv6 = "2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334"number = ipv6_to_number(ipv6)print(f"IPv6 as number: {number}")# Convert number back to IPv6 address stringrestored_ipv6 = number_to_ipv6(number+1)print(f"Restored IPv6: {restored_ipv6}")I am struggling to convert the same in JQ function syntax. Can someone please help?
