jason d53c772dd6 Add Milestones 1 & 2: full-stack POS foundation with admin UI
- Node/Express/TypeScript API under /api/v1 with JWT auth (login, refresh, logout, /me)
- Prisma schema: vendors, users, roles, products, categories, taxes, transactions
- SQLite for local dev; Postgres via docker-compose for production
- Full CRUD routes for vendors, users, categories, taxes, products with Zod validation and RBAC
- Paginated list endpoints scoped per vendor; refresh token rotation
- React/TypeScript admin SPA (Vite): login, protected routing, sidebar layout
- Pages: Dashboard, Catalog (tabbed Products/Categories/Taxes), Users, Vendor Settings
- Shared UI: Table, Modal, FormField, Btn, PageHeader components
- Multi-stage Dockerfile; docker-compose with Postgres healthcheck
- Seed script with demo vendor and owner account
- INSTRUCTIONS.md, ROADMAP.md, .claude/launch.json for dev server config

Determine address of proxied request

Install

This is a Node.js module available through the npm registry. Installation is done using the npm install command:

$ npm install proxy-addr

API

var proxyaddr = require('proxy-addr')

proxyaddr(req, trust)

Return the address of the request, using the given trust parameter.

The trust argument is a function that returns true if you trust the address, false if you don't. The closest untrusted address is returned.

proxyaddr(req, function (addr) { return addr === '127.0.0.1' })
proxyaddr(req, function (addr, i) { return i < 1 })

The trust arugment may also be a single IP address string or an array of trusted addresses, as plain IP addresses, CIDR-formatted strings, or IP/netmask strings.

proxyaddr(req, '127.0.0.1')
proxyaddr(req, ['127.0.0.0/8', '10.0.0.0/8'])
proxyaddr(req, ['127.0.0.0/255.0.0.0', '192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0'])

This module also supports IPv6. Your IPv6 addresses will be normalized automatically (i.e. fe80::00ed:1 equals fe80:0:0:0:0:0:ed:1).

proxyaddr(req, '::1')
proxyaddr(req, ['::1/128', 'fe80::/10'])

This module will automatically work with IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses as well to support node.js in IPv6-only mode. This means that you do not have to specify both ::ffff:a00:1 and 10.0.0.1.

As a convenience, this module also takes certain pre-defined names in addition to IP addresses, which expand into IP addresses:

proxyaddr(req, 'loopback')
proxyaddr(req, ['loopback', 'fc00:ac:1ab5:fff::1/64'])
  • loopback: IPv4 and IPv6 loopback addresses (like ::1 and 127.0.0.1).
  • linklocal: IPv4 and IPv6 link-local addresses (like fe80::1:1:1:1 and 169.254.0.1).
  • uniquelocal: IPv4 private addresses and IPv6 unique-local addresses (like fc00:ac:1ab5:fff::1 and 192.168.0.1).

When trust is specified as a function, it will be called for each address to determine if it is a trusted address. The function is given two arguments: addr and i, where addr is a string of the address to check and i is a number that represents the distance from the socket address.

proxyaddr.all(req, [trust])

Return all the addresses of the request, optionally stopping at the first untrusted. This array is ordered from closest to furthest (i.e. arr[0] === req.connection.remoteAddress).

proxyaddr.all(req)

The optional trust argument takes the same arguments as trust does in proxyaddr(req, trust).

proxyaddr.all(req, 'loopback')

proxyaddr.compile(val)

Compiles argument val into a trust function. This function takes the same arguments as trust does in proxyaddr(req, trust) and returns a function suitable for proxyaddr(req, trust).

var trust = proxyaddr.compile('loopback')
var addr = proxyaddr(req, trust)

This function is meant to be optimized for use against every request. It is recommend to compile a trust function up-front for the trusted configuration and pass that to proxyaddr(req, trust) for each request.
