"yii1tech/web": "*"

to the "require" section of your composer.json.

Usage

This extension provides the enhanced components for the web request processing in Yii1 application.

In particular, it allows correct and secure processing of the "forwarded" HTTP headers, which is crucial for distributed application with load balancer.

Application configuration example:

<?php

return [
    'components' => [
        'request' => [
            'class' => yii1tech\web\HttpRequest::class,
            'trustedHosts' => [
                '192.168.0.0/24', // trust "forwarded" headers coming from IP addresses in range `192.168.0.0-192.168.0.254`
            ],
        ],
    ],
    // ...
];

Usage example:

<?php

var_dump(Yii::app()->request->getRemoteIP()); // returns IP of current HTTP connection, e.g. load balancer, outputs '192.168.0.1'
var_dump(Yii::app()->request->getUserIp()); // returns user IP address, considering "forwarded" headers, outputs '162.55.123.243'
var_dump(Yii::app()->request->getUserHostAddress()); // alias of `getUserIp()`
