Hi,

I am trying to store an IP address in MySQL database using the following 
mapping:

class IP(Base):

    __tablename__ = 'ip'

    ip = Column(VARBINARY(16), nullable=False, index=True)

VARBINARY is the correct type for storing IP addresses according to:

https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/miscellaneous-functions.html#function_inet6-aton

My question is how do I run the MySQL function inet6_aton on insertion
and inet6_ntoa on read using SQLAlchemy ORM?

I know I could do it with python, but I am assuming that it is faster
with MySQL.

I am running SQLAlchemy 1.2.18 and MariaDB 10.0.38.

Regards,
spaceman
