I have the following frameworks in my app

How do I get the client's request's ip address ?

My routing is defined as follows:

I'm not sure whether your question refers to www.ninjaframework.org or spray.io, but if you're using the former, you can get the remote IP address in your controller method:

public Result method(Context context) {
    String ip = context.getRemoteAddr();
    // ...
}

As the documentation states (http://www.ninjaframework.org/apidocs/ninja/Context.html#getRemoteAddr--), you have to set the ninja.ninja.x_forwarded_for_enabled flag to true in your application.conf if your app is running behind a http proxy or load balancer.
