expressjsHow can I get the IP address of a GET request using Express.js?
To get the IP address of a GET request using Express.js, you can use the req.ip
property. This property will return the IP address of the request.
For example:
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
console.log(req.ip);
res.send('Hello World!');
});
app.listen(3000, () => console.log('Server started'));
Output example
Server started
The code above will print the IP address of the request to the console.
Code explanation
require('express')
- This imports the Express.js library into the application.app.get('/', (req, res) => {...})
- This defines a route handler for GET requests to the root path.console.log(req.ip)
- This prints the IP address of the request to the console.res.send('Hello World!')
- This sends a response to the client.
