+ +
+

Name

+
+

cowboy_req:peer - Peer address and port

+
+
+
+

Description

+
+
+
+
peer(Req :: cowboy_req:req()) -> Info
+
+Info :: {inet:ip_address(), inet:port_number()}
+

Return the peer’s IP address and port number.

+

The peer information can also be obtained using pattern matching:

+
+
+
#{peer := {IP, Port}} = Req.
+
+
+
+

Arguments

+
+
+
+Req +
+
+

+The Req object. +

+
+
+
+
+
+

Return value

+
+

The peer’s IP address and port number.

+

The peer is not necessarily the client’s IP address and port. +It is the IP address of the endpoint connecting directly to +the server, which may be a gateway or a proxy.

+

The forwarded header can be used to get better information +about the different endpoints from the client to the server. +Note however that it is only informative; there is no reliable +way of determining the source of an HTTP request.

+
