getpeername and getsockname API for cosockets

daniel

Hi,

It appears that the cosocket api is (intentionally?) missing the getpeername and getsockname api's.

For example, I want to be able to create a socket with ngx.socket.tcp and connect and then record in the logs which local port it was bound to for debugging.

Is this something that would make sense to ask for as a feature?

Thanks,

Daniel
