Show calendar based on IP Address accessed

@MMRIZE Great, You have given me an idea, will wait for your code. Please share when possible.

@Spinster
Ah I suddenly remember that getting Internal IP with only JavaScript on client browseris hard.
Hmmm another approach might be needed.

[sdetweil]

@MMRIZE that is why you need the express api call…

I would make a separate module that has ip in div, not shown, but w id

then call in calendar is document.get…
compare, your way or on cal entries
more synchronous…

[MMRIZE]

@sdetweil
Yes. I thought a small module with node_helper that could return clients’ ip as a result of REST api call from calendar module.

[sdetweil]

@MMRIZE and that module calls its own rest call publishes the address in its getDom() result, with id= on div

and then cal module can use synchronous document.getElementsById()

to get that value.

@MMRIZE @Spinster

so the little module is

https://github.com/sdetweil/getip

and it does correctly return the ip address of the client… tested from 4 different systems to the same MM…

see later post for final solution

Wow, you are quick, you have given me some homework. Will use your code and get back with the result.

Thank you so much for your patience and understanding.

@sdetweil

I tried your code, but find that once I include getip module in config.js, I am not seeing any output for calendar. Is this the expected output. Without getip module, I find that client_ip = document.getElementById("getip is returning null.Please advice

By the way, which client are you using? Electron? Or Browser?
