Getting the remote socket address

[kiubiq]

Is there a way to get the remote address from a socket?
Looking at the documentation it should be something like this:

local http = require("http")

http.createServer(function (req, res)
  p(req.socket:remoteAddress())
end):listen(8080)

At the C level I bind getsockname and getpeername.  https://github.com/luvit/luvit/blob/master/src/luv_tcp.c#L86-L156

In the net library which the http library uses there doesn't appear to be an alias for :remoteAddress(), but you can get at the uv API via the private socket._handle property. https://github.com/luvit/luvit/blob/master/lib/luvit/net.lua#L264

as _handle:getpeername() _handle:getsockname()  https://github.com/luvit/luvit/blob/master/lib/luvit/uv.lua#L144-L148

We try to make it property on the Socket object but it is always nil AFAICS:

https://github.com/luvit/luvit/blob/master/lib/luvit/net.lua#L42

We even try to test it in the tls library but I suspect it is just nil:
