does anyone know of a way for python to grab a user's IP address from X-Real-IP that's passed from nginx?

    How do you call python scripts with nginx? CGI, WSGI?

    it's proxy_pass to gunicorn.

    here's what the nginx block looks like:

    http://sprunge.us/LMcX

    just a note: i'm not going to run django just for this one tiny function.

    There's no need to use Django. Just use something (anything) with WSGI support and you'll be fine - and that will remove the need for hacky reverse proxy solutions.

    yeah i'm thinking about just using uWSGI with nginx.... the recent move from /lib to /usr/lib is fuxing with uWSGI tho

    Just have a look at the contents of environ (first variable of your app function).
