For the IP you would want to look into an API.
http://www.db-ip.com

I dont want to use any third party service

I know a couple that are free. If you need them

You can look up a module called morgan, but I don’t think the glitch proxy passes on the IP, I’m not sure.

Yes, I was gonna suggest Morgan! Apparently, it can log the browser, device and IP address.

It can log anything, it’s just a middleware that prints information to stdout. It is possible to change morgan’s format and use your own where you also include protocol, method, ip and more if you feel like it.

JavaScript cannot detect IP address, but Node can. Do a POST request to server, and then call

// Nodejs
res.end(req.headers["x-forwarded-for"]); 
// Express
res.send(req.ip);

For user-agent, use js like
navigator.userAgent

Morgan too uses req.ip to retrieve the remote-addr
