When working on masking user IP from Sentry at work, after scrubbing the IP from headers I noticed that user's IP is also visible under Environment's
REMOTE_ADDR
. One way to hide/mask the IP I thought about was to have additional plugs before and afterPlugContext
, to change and re-set theconn.remote_ip
value. But I think a better solution would be to make reading of this value configurable.When working on the patch I noticed the logic on the
master
branch has changed to read thex-forwarded-for
header when present, so I made this the new default remote address reader.
