Bind IPv6 address to Python socket as source ip address

I formerly used the code below to bind IPv4 address to Python socket as source ip address.

import socket
true_socket = socket.socket
def bound_socket(*a, **k):
    sock = true_socket(*a, **k)
    sock.bind((sourceIP, 0))
    return sock
socket.socket = bound_socket

Does above code work for IPv6 address? If not, how can I bind an IPv6 address?

Thanks in advance!
