Device-detector-js is a precise user agent parser and device detector written in TypeScript, backed by the largest and most up-to-date open-source user agent database.

Device-detector-js will parse any user agent and detect the browser, operating system, device used (desktop, tablet, mobile, tv, cars, console, etc.), brand and model. Works with Node.js and in the browser.

This library is heavily tested and relies on over 10,000 tests to detect thousands of user agent strings, even from rare and obscure browsers and devices.

• No dependencies
• TypeScript support
• Thoroughly tested

To use device-detector-js in your project, run:

npm install device-detector-js

import DeviceDetector from "device-detector-js";

import DeviceDetector = require("device-detector-js");

Example - user agent detection:

import DeviceDetector from "device-detector-js";

const deviceDetector = new DeviceDetector();
const userAgent = "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_13_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/69.0.3497.81 Safari/537.36";
const device = deviceDetector.parse(userAgent);

console.log(device);

Output:

{
  "client": {
    "type": "browser",
    "name": "Chrome",
    "version": "69.0",
    "engine": "Blink",
    "engineVersion": ""
  },
  "os": {
    "name": "Mac",
    "version": "10.13",
    "platform": ""
  },
  "device": {
    "type": "desktop",
    "brand": "Apple",
    "model": ""
  },
  "bot": null
}

Example - bot detection:

import BotDetector from "device-detector-js/dist/parsers/bot";

const botDetector = new BotDetector();
const userAgent = "Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 6_0 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/536.26 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/6.0 Mobile/10A5376e Safari/8536.25 (compatible; Googlebot-Mobile/2.1; +http://www.google.com/bot.html)";
const bot = botDetector.parse(userAgent);

if (bot) {
  console.log(bot);
}

Output:

{
  "name": "Googlebot",
  "category": "Search bot",
  "url": "http://www.google.com/bot.html",
  "producer": {
    "name": "Google Inc.",
    "url": "http://www.google.com"
  }
}

• options <[Object]> Options object which might have the following properties:
  • skipBotDetection <[boolean]> If true, bot detection will completely be skipped (bots will be detected as regular devices). Defaults to false.
  • versionTruncation <[0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | null]> Passing null disables version truncation, so full versions will be returned. Defaults to 1, only minor versions will be returned (e.g. X.Y).

Type definitions are included in this library and exposed via:

import { DeviceDetectorResult, DeviceDetectorOptions } from "device-detector-js";

Even though this library can run in the browser, it is strongly advised against doing so, unless you are not concerned with performance. Keep in mind that using this library in browser-side code means sending around 432 KB of Regex rules and 144 KB of javascript (uncompressed and unminified), which may result in a poor user experience for people with a slow Internet connection.

The lists below are auto generated and updated from time to time. Some of them might not be complete.

• Matomo device detector - A powerful device detection library.
• node.js - Cross-platform JavaScript run-time environment for executing JavaScript code server-side.
• TypeScript - Typed superset of JavaScript that compiles to plain JavaScript.
• Jest - Delightful JavaScript Testing.

When contributing to this project, please first discuss the change you wish to make via issue, email, or any other method with the owners of this repository before making a change.

Update the README.md with details of changes to the library.

Execute yarn test and update the tests if needed.

This library needs to be updated when matomo releases a new version of their library. Here's how to proceed:

1. Pull the master branch from this repo
2. Update the https://github.com/matomo-org/device-detector#{version-number} to the latest version of matomo device detector in the package.json
3. Run yarn fixtures to update to the latest fixtures. This will download new fixtures based on the version specified in the package.json
4. Run yarn test and update the library if some tests are failing
5. Open a PR

When matomo releases a new version, they usually add support for new brands. Those brands needs to be copied over to this file.
