Flask-CloudflareRemote 1.1.0

Cloudflare proxy support for flask application

Cloudflare proxy support for flask application.

It gets client ip from cloudflare headers and can allow request from cloudflare ips only. If you are behind a proxy remember to use werkzeug.middleware.proxy_fix.ProxyFix, alternative you can override CloudflareRemote.get_remote() in order to fetch the correct client ip for example via HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR.
