req.ip

The IP address of the client who sent this request (req).

Note:

If your Sails app is deployed behind a proxy (on Heroku, for example), then you'll need to do a bit of additional configuration. Normally, req.ip is simply the "remote address"—the IP address of the requesting user agent. But if the sails.config.http.trustProxy option is enabled, this is the "upstream address".

Usage

req.ip;

Example

req.ip;
// -> "127.0.0.1"
