Suggestion: internet.ipv4() and internet.ipv6() about kotlin-faker HOT 4 OPEN

It looks like they have it upstream: https://www.rubydoc.info/gems/faker/Faker/Internet#ip_v4_address-class_method

from kotlin-faker.

Huh, weird it's not there already.

Feel free to add this if you like :)
But unless it's available in the yml of the upstream ruby-faker, I think it's better to generate the values inside a function directly instead of adding custom stuff to a yml file. The latter makes it harder to pull and merge changes to these dictionary files.

Yep, but also implemented the way I suggested above , and not via .yml file: https://github.com/faker-ruby/faker/blob/d355cc3ed6767c118729039839e2d7666c49ee56/lib/faker/default/internet.rb#L279-L280

I haven't really looked at all the "additional" functionality of the ruby faker that it gives outside of the yml files, so yeah, I'm not surprised something like this is there already :)

In this case it makes sense also to implement this directly in a function, because it's way easier to exclude invalid values in the ip range.

We could even take this a bit further.
E.g. generating a random address for a given network/mask could potentially be useful? Generating a random address in the same subnet as supplied address as well maybe?
