// In your js file (e.g. app.js)
 var get_ip = require('ipware')().get_ip;
 app.use(function(req, res, next) {
     var ip_info = get_ip(req);
     console.log(ip_info);
     // { clientIp: '127.0.0.1', clientIpRoutable: false }
     next();
 });

 // `get_ip` also adds two fields to your request object
 // 1. `clientIP`, 2. `clientIpRoutable`
 // Where:
 //    `clientIP` holds the client's IP address
 //    'clientIpRoutable` is `true` if user's IP is `public`. (externally route-able)
 //                       is `false` if user's IP is `private`. (not externally route-able)

 // Advanced option: By default the left most address in the `HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR` is
 // returned.  However, depending on your preference and needs, you can change this
 // behavior by passing the `right_most_proxy=True` to the API.
 // Note: Not all proxies are equal. So left to right or right to left preference is not a
 // rule that all proxy servers follow.

 var ip_info = get_ip(req, right_most_proxy=True)

 // You can also use your own config file as below.
 // for `IPWARE_HTTP_HEADER_PRECEDENCE_ORDER` items, the
 // check is done from top to bottom where the request `headers`
 // is examined for the existence of the IP address field.

 // All lists that start with `IPV` are examined and if an IP
 // address starts with any of those patterns the IP is considered
 // `private`, otherwise the IP is considered `public` which means
 // the IP is externally routable. (reachable through the Internet :)

 // Simply copy the following content into a JSON file and
 // modify it to suit your needs and place it in your project
 // under version control.

 // Then you can use it like:
 // var get_ip = require('ipware')('../path/to/your/conf.json').get_ip;
