New Sonyflake MachineID error

[kevinmiao]

an error occurred when I new Sonyflake. the file is github.com/sony/sonyflake@v1.2.0/sonyflake.go.

i'm use MacOs 14.4.1.

After debugging, I found that the isPrivateIPv4() check ip error under lower16BitPrivateIP() method. i not init MachineID when i new Sonyflake, so it will run this code : var err error if st.MachineID == nil { sf.machineID, err = lower16BitPrivateIP(defaultInterfaceAddrs) } else { sf.machineID, err = st.MachineID() } if err != nil { return nil, err }

error Info ` panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference [recovered] panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference [signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x0 pc=0x11a1e92]

// NewSonyflake returns nil in the following cases:
// - Settings.StartTime is ahead of the current time.
// - Settings.MachineID returns an error.
// - Settings.CheckMachineID returns false.

So, if you would like to check the error, you should use func New(st Settings) (*Sonyflake, error) instead of NewSonyflake.
