How to use docker cli in golang to create subnet

I’m trying to create a docker network for my application written in Golang.

I’m aware that I can use this NetworkCreate function, but I’m not sure how to specify the network option.

In the regular terminal console, I can just create the network with

docker network create -d bridge --subnet=174.3.12.5/16 mynet

But how to use the NetworkCreate() as an equivalent for this network creation?

    You can use exec.Command(...).CombinedOutput()

    You can specify the network options via the NetworkCreate options struct.

    If you want to convert the command docker network create -d bridge --subnet=174.3.12.5/16 mynet to a golang equivalent, It’ll look something like this:

    networkResponse, err := client.NetworkCreate(context.Background(), "mynet", types.NetworkCreate{
    Driver: "bridge",
    IPAM: &network.IPAM{
        Config: network.IPAMConfig{
            Subnet: "174.3.12.5/16",
        },
    },
})

    package main

import (
    "context"
    "fmt"
    "github.com/docker/docker/api/types"
    "github.com/docker/docker/api/types/network"
    "github.com/docker/docker/client"
)

func main() {
    cli, err := client.NewClientWithOpts(client.FromEnv)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err)
    }

    newnetwork := types.NetworkCreate{IPAM: &network.IPAM{
        Driver: "default",
        Config: []network.IPAMConfig{network.IPAMConfig{
            Subnet: "174.3.12.5/16",
        }},
    }}

    res, err := cli.NetworkCreate(context.Background(), "test", newnetwork)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err)
        return
    }
    fmt.Println(res)

}

    this is a minimal implementable example. the name for driver is default.
