wsgi-cloudflare-proxy-fix 0.1.2

Installation

Install wsgi_cloudflare_proxy_fix using pip:

pip install wsgi_cloudflare_proxy_fix

Usage

The following examples assume werkzeug.middleware.proxy_fix.ProxyFix is being used to read the X-Forwarded-For and X-Forwarded-Proto headers.

For a standalone WSGI application:

import logging
from wsgi_cloudflare_proxy_fix import CloudflareProxyFix
from werkzeug.middleware.proxy_fix import ProxyFix

application = CloudflareProxyFix(application, log_level=logging.INFO)
application = ProxyFix(application)

For a Flask application:

import logging
from wsgi_cloudflare_proxy_fix import CloudflareProxyFix
from werkzeug.middleware.proxy_fix import ProxyFix

def create_app():
    app = Flask(__name__)
    app.wsgi_app = CloudflareProxyFix(app.wsgi_app, log_level=logging.INFO)
    app.wsgi_app = ProxyFix(app.wsgi_app)
    return app

Testing

To verify the proxy fix is working as expected in your production environment, the CloudflareProxyFixTest middleware can be used by adding the following to your application:

import logging
from wsgi_cloudflare_proxy_fix import CloudflareProxyFix, CloudflareProxyFixTest
from werkzeug.middleware.proxy_fix import ProxyFix

def create_app():
    app = Flask(__name__)
    app.wsig_app = CloudflareProxyFixTest(app.wsgi_app, path="/debug/cf-test")
    app.wsgi_app = CloudflareProxyFix(app.wsgi_app, log_level=logging.INFO)
    app.wsgi_app = ProxyFix(app.wsgi_app)
    return app

And making a request to the debug/cf-test endpoint:

$ curl http://localhost:5000/debug/cf-test
{
    "CF_TRUSTED": null,
    "REMOTE_ADDR": "127.0.0.1"
    "wsgi_cloudflare_proxy_fix.orig": null,
}
$ curl -H 'X-Forwarded-For: 103.31.4.1' -H 'Cf-Connecting-Ip: 1.2.3.4' http://localhost:5000/debug/cf-test
{
    "CF_TRUSTED": true,
    "REMOTE_ADDR": "1.2.3.4",
    "wsgi_cloudflare_proxy_fix.orig": {
        "REMOTE_ADDR": "103.31.4.1"
    }
}
