anonymizeIp

Anonymize an IP address by setting the last octet to 0.

Signature

function anonymizeIp(ip: string): string;

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`ip`	`string`	IP address

Returns

string — Anonymized IP address.

Example

import { anonymizeIp } from "@insightcn/sdk";

const anonymized = anonymizeIp("192.168.1.100");
console.log(anonymized); // "192.168.1.0"

How It Works

The function sets the last octet (the last number) of the IP address to 0:

Original IP:    192.168.1.100
                ^^^^^^^^^ ^^^
                Network   Host
                          └── Set to 0

Anonymized IP:  192.168.1.0

Automatic Anonymization

When you use captureRegistryEvent, IP addresses are automatically anonymized:

import { captureRegistryEvent } from "@insightcn/sdk";

// IP is automatically anonymized
await captureRegistryEvent(request, "your-api-key", "installed");
