# Documentation
|
||||
### UAParser([user-agent][,extensions])
|
||||
typeof `user-agent` "string".
|
||||
|
||||
typeof `extensions` "array".
|
||||
|
||||
In The Browser environment you dont need to pass the user-agent string to the function, you can just call the funtion and it should automatically get the string from the `window.navigator.userAgent`, but that is not the case in nodejs. The user-agent string must be passed in nodejs for the function to work.
|
||||
Usually you can find the user agent in:
|
||||
`request.headers["user-agent"]`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Constructor
|
||||
|
||||
When you call `UAParser` with the `new` keyword `UAParser` will return a new instance with an empty result object, you have to call one of the available methods to get the information from the user-agent string.
|
||||
Like so:
|
||||
* `new UAParser([uastring][,extensions])`
|
||||
* returns new instance
|
||||
```js
|
||||
let parser = new UAParser("user-agent"); // you need to pass the user-agent for nodejs
|
||||
console.log(parser); // {}
|
||||
let parserResults = parser.getResults();
|
||||
console.log(parserResults);
|
||||
/** {
|
||||
"ua": "",
|
||||
"browser": {},
|
||||
"engine": {},
|
||||
"os": {},
|
||||
"device": {},
|
||||
"cpu": {}
|
||||
} */
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When you call UAParser without the `new` keyword, it will automatically call `getResults()` function and return the parsed results.
|
||||
* `UAParser([uastring][,extensions])`
|
||||
* returns result object `{ ua: '', browser: {}, cpu: {}, device: {}, engine: {}, os: {} }`
|
||||
|
||||
## Methods
|
||||
|
||||
#### Methods table
|
||||
The methods are self explanatory, here's a small overview on all the available methods:
|
||||
* `getResult()` - returns all function object calls, user-agent string, browser info, cpu, device, engine, os:
|
||||
`{ ua: '', browser: {}, cpu: {}, device: {}, engine: {}, os: {} }`.
|
||||
|
||||
* `getBrowser()` - returns the browser name and version.
|
||||
* `getDevice()` - returns the device model, type, vendor.
|
||||
* `getEngine()` - returns the current browser engine name and version.
|
||||
* `getOS()` - returns the running operating system name and version.
|
||||
* `getCPU()` - returns CPU architectural design name.
|
||||
* `getUA()` - returns the user-agent string.
|
||||
* `setUA(user-agent)` - set a custom user-agent to be parsed.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
* `getResult()`
|
||||
* returns `{ ua: '', browser: {}, cpu: {}, device: {}, engine: {}, os: {} }`
|
||||
|
||||
* `getBrowser()`
|
||||
* returns `{ name: '', version: '' }`
