# Go/Golang package for parsing user agent strings [![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/mileusna/useragent?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/github.com/mileusna/useragent)

Use `useragent.Parse(userAgent string)` function to parse browser's and bot's user agents strings and get:
+ User agent name and version (Chrome, Firefox, Googlebot, etc.)
+ Operating system name and version  (Windows, Android, iOS etc.)
+ Device type (mobile, desktop, tablet, bot)
+ Device name if available (iPhone, iPad, Huawei VNS-L21)
+ URL provided by the bot (http://www.google.com/bot.html etc.)

## Status

Still need some work on detecting Andorid device names.

Fill free to report an issue for any User-Agent string not recognized or misinterpreted.

    for _, s := range userAgents {

        fmt.Println()

        fmt.Println("Device:", ua.Device)
        if ua.Mobile {
            fmt.Println("(Mobile)")
        }
        if ua.Tablet {
            fmt.Println("(Tablet)")
        }
        if ua.Desktop {
            fmt.Println("(Desktop)")
        }
        if ua.Bot {
            fmt.Println("(Bot)")
        }
        if ua.URL != "" {
            fmt.Println(ua.URL)
        }
    }
}


```

## Shorthand functions

Beside `UserAgent{}` struct and its properties returned by `useragent.Parse()`, there is a bunch of shorthand functions for most popular browsers and operating systems, so this code:

```go
    ua := useragent.Parse(userAgentString)
    if ua.OS == "Android" && ua.Name == "Chrome" {
        // do something
    }
```
can be also written on this way:
```go
    ua := useragent.Parse(userAgentString)
    if ua.IsAndroid() && ua.IsChrome() {
        // do something
    }
```

## Notice

+ Opera and Opera Mini are two browsers, since they operate on very different ways.
+ If Googlebot (or any other bot) is detected and it is using its mobile crawler, both `bot` and `mobile` flags will be set to `true`.
