Getting ip address from socket connection

[nate.t...@gmail.com]

Hey,

We really need to get IP address and do security checks on it during connection as users can login only from white-listed IPs. 

I know that currently this is not possible, but can someone provide a way how we can do by patching phoenix engine? Or at least from what module we need to dig?

I see that socket has a pid of Phoenix.Socket.Transport, which uses conn, can we get client's IP from there?

Regards,

Nate

You are messing controller with socket, there's no direct access to conn.
