Go/GoLang check IP address in range

Question

In Go/GoLang, what is the fastest way to check if an IP address is in a specific range?

For example, given range 216.14.49.184 to 216.14.49.191

Answer 1

How about some implementation like inet_pton? The result is easy to be stored.

func IP2Integer(ip *net.IP) (int64, error) {
    ip4 := ip.To4()
    if ip4 == nil {
        return 0, fmt.Errorf("illegal: %v", ip)
    }

    bin := make([]string, len(ip4))
    for i, v := range ip4 {
        bin[i] = fmt.Sprintf("%08b", v)
    }
    return strconv.ParseInt(strings.Join(bin, ""), 2, 64)
}
