How can I access request object in the loopback operational hooks?

Question

I'm using loopback 3.x and I've written an Access Hook . I want to add some condition on the basis of User Agent .

So I'm willing to access Request > Headers > User-Agent.

Is it even possible to access it? if no then is there any other way I can achieve it?

Answer 1

So I have managed to this using Remote hooks .

ModelName.beforeRemote('findById', (ctx, data, next) => {
     // ctx has req object that further contains the headers and my work is done
})

But still I'm opening the question for the further question if it is possible to do in the access hooks
