There was a problem hiding this comment.
This looks good, but I'd like to update the documentation included a bit on this since it is adding a new API to the process

According to MDN the specified header can return a list of IPs due to proxies. In our development environment we had this bug because we already have an internal method for getting the UserIP (MyTokens geolocation token, for example). Some load balancers/proxies do add their IP to this header, others don't, others use another header field. It all depends on their configuration, but in order to prevent unwanted behavior, i think you should split by comma and use the first IP found in the header. |
