Accessing client IP address in SvelteKit?

[hyunbinseo]

Is there a way to access client IP address in SvelteKit?

Resources

• Can I get the IP address of my users in a SvelteKit project?
• Include remote_addr of client in request header #3972
• adapter-node: Make remoteAddress of requesting client available #3993

And, while req.socket.remoteAddress may be available in Node environments, it may not be in other environments that use this same utility function. This feels like a job for each relevant adapter.

Planning to use an external IP address API in the mean time.

Idea from byronbyron/ip-address-tracker project, which uses SvelteKit and ipify.

List of 3rd party services, and their limitations are organized in a StackOverflow question.

Personally decided to implement a custom Cloudflare Workers.

I made an example of how to get a user's ip address and subsequently the user's location using sveltekit.
