proxy.golang.org : github.com/thediveo/netdb : v1.0.3

Package netdb provides information about TCP/IP subsystem protocols and internet services, as commonly stored in files /etc/protocols and /etc/services. It is a pure Go implementation. This netdb package does not even try to slavishly replicate the POSIX C API; instead, it attempts to be Go-ish. For instance, the C type "servent" has simply become the netdb.Service type in order to avoid the arcane POSIX-rooted type names. The netdb package defaults to looking up protocols and services information from its built-in database instead of consulting /etc/protocols and /etc/services. Additionally, it also supports reading the protocol and service descriptions from the well-known /etc/protocols and /etc/services files; please see the examples for how to access these sources. This package bases on the file format descriptions for protocols(5) and services(5), as documented in https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/protocols.5.html and https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/services.5.html. The built-in database has been auto-generated from the etc/protocols and etc/services files courtesy of the netbase package of the Debian project (https://salsa.debian.org/md/netbase). In some sense, this netdb package picks up the baton from the https://github.com/dominikh/go-netdb package. However, it is not a fork but was written from scratch, considering (at least some of) the advice in issue #1 of the go-netdb package. Looks up an EtherType by its name Looks up an EtherType by its name Where required, merges protocol and service descriptions from /etc/protocols and /etc/services with the built-in database, replacing builtin descriptions with those found in the files. Where required, uses protocol and service descriptions only from /etc/protocols and /etc/services, ignoring the builtin data completely. Look up a (TCP/IP subsystem) protocol by its name. Looks up a (TCP/IP subsystem) protocol by its (uint8) number. Look up a service by its name and protocol name. Look up a service by its port number and protocol name.
