bowser-jr v1.0.6

Bowser Jr.

A small, lightweight and composable browser detection utility heavily inspired by bowser.

Installation

Install it using your favourite package manager:

$ npm install bowser-jr
# or
$ yarn add bowser-jr
# or
$ pnpm add bowser-jr

Usage

Now just import getParser and the parsers you need:

import { getParser } from 'bowser-jr';
import { getBrowserName, browserParser } from 'bowser-jr/browser';

const parser = getParser(window.navigator.userAgent, { use: [browserParser] });

console.log(getBrowserName(parser)); // outputs `Firefox`

Using multiple parsers

You can use multiple parsers to extract more information from the user agent:

import { getParser } from 'bowser-jr';
import { browserParser } from 'bowser-jr/browser';
import { engineParser } from 'bowser-jr/engine';
import { osParser } from 'bowser-jr/os';
import { platformParser } from 'bowser-jr/platform';

const parser = getParser(window.navigator.userAgent, {
    use: [browserParser, engineParser, osParser, platformParser],
});

console.log(parser.getResult());

Bowser compat utilities

bowser-jr also comes with a compatibility utility for bowser to make adoption a little easier:

import BowserCompat from 'bowser-jr/compat';

const browser = BowserCompat.getParser(window.navigator.userAgent);
console.log(browser.getBrowser());

// outputs
{
  name: "Internet Explorer"
  version: "11.0"
}
