How to get client IP address with WebSocket (websockets/ws) library in Node.js?

Question

I cannot find the client IP parameter on the client object.

Answer 1

Got this from printing the keys in the socket object:

> ws._socket.address()
  { port: 8081,
    family: 2,
    address: '127.0.0.1' }

> ws._socket.remoteAddress
  '74.125.224.194'

> ws._socket.remotePort
  41435

I don't have any documentation so I'm not sure how well this is supported across versions :/
