hapi.js plugin for setting the request.info.remoteAddress
and request.info.remotePort
based on the X-Forwarded-For and X-Forwarded-Port headers
see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-Forwarded-For
The general format of the x-forwarded-for
header is:
X-Forwarded-For: client, proxy1, proxy2
This plugin sets request.info.remoteAddress
to the first value of the x-forwarded-for
header if it is set.
For example, if the header was
'x-forwarded-for': '192.16.184.5, 192.16.184.6, 192.16.184.2'
then remote.info.remoteAddress
would be set to 192.16.184.5
This plugin sets request.info.remotePort
to the value of the x-forwarded-port
header
const Hapi = require('hapi');
const server = new Hapi.Server();
server.connection();
server.register(require('therealyou'), function (err) {
// Assuming no err, start server
server.start(function () {

});
