Format IP Address to include leading 0's - JavaScript

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Nate Arms 125

I'm currently attempting to implement code that will take an IP address from one field, format it to include leading zeros, and then push that new format to a different field for sorting.  I'm really new to coding and I'm having a difficult time trying to figure this out.

Example of what I'm expecting:

Field one value = 10.240.1.15

Format string and insert into Field2 = 010.240.001.015


I have it working in JSFiddle, but I'm having issues transferring this into Dynamics CRM.

function IPsort() {
    var ipAddress = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_ipaddress").getValue();
    var ipSort = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_ipsort");
    function paddy(n, p, c) {
        var pad_char = typeof c !== 'undefined' ? c : '0';
        var pad = new Array(1 + p).join(pad_char);
        return (pad + n).slice(-pad.length);
    }
    var num = paddy(ipAddress.split(".", 1)[0], 3) + '.' +
        paddy(ipAddress.split(".", 3)[1], 3) + '.' +
        paddy(ipAddress.split(".", 3)[2], 3) + '.' +
        paddy(ipAddress.split(".", 4)[3], 3);
    ipSort.setValue(num);
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

    Hi,

    Try this function to get your string formatted the way you want:

    function GetIP(var str) {
    var res = str.split('.');
	
	for(var i= 0; i < res.length; i++)
	{
	if(res[i].length == 1)
	{
		res[i] = "00" + res[i];
	}
	else if(res[i].length == 2)
	{
		res[i] = "0" + res[i];
	}
	}
    return res.join('.');
}

    Much cleaner code... thanks for responding so quickly.  I got everything working now too, thanks!

    In case anyone wants to see the final code, it's here

    function formatIP()
{
    var ipAddress = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_ipaddress").getValue();
    var ipSort = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_ipsort");
    function GetIP(str) {
        var res = str.split('.');
        for (var i = 0; i < res.length; i++) {
            if (res[i].length == 1) {
                res[i] = "00" + res[i];
            }
            else if (res[i].length == 2) {
                res[i] = "0" + res[i];
            }
        }
        return res.join('.');
    }
    var str = GetIP(ipAddress);
    ipSort.setValue(str);
    ipSort.setSubmitMode("always");
}
