A simple module to check if CloudFlare is connecting and get the real IP address.

Install

To install node_CloudFlare on your Node.js server use npm

npm install node_cloudflare

All lowercase! NPM is case sensitive.

Example

Load config

var cf = require('node_cloudflare');
cf.load(function (error, fs_error)
{
    if (fs_error)
    {
        throw new Error(fs_error);
    }
    server.listen(8880);
    console.log('Server running.');
});

Check:

var ip_address = (req.connection.remoteAddress ? req.connection.remoteAddress : req.remoteAddress);
    if (cf.check(req)) //CF
    {
        res.end('CF IP: ' + ip_address + '\nYour IP: ' + cf.get(req));
    }
    else //not CF
    {    
        res.end(ip_address);
    }

Check out example.js for a another working exmaple that overrides the req.connection.remoteAddress getter.
