1.      IP Extraction

Extract the IP Address from the credentials and store it. Return the IP Address in the dictionary from extractCredentials().

The value from request._environ['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'] will be used if present. otherwise request._environ['REMOTE_ADDR'].


On a basis of "privacy" of attributes starting with underscore, such as _environ, I would suggest using request.headers (for X-Forwarded- For) and request.environment instead. These are defined in the public interface API.
