Node Device Detection

Developer Documentation

Introduction

This project contains 51Degrees Device Detection engines that can be used with the Pipeline API.

The Pipeline is a generic web request intelligence and data processing solution with the ability to add a range of 51Degrees and/or custom plug ins (Engines)

This package - fiftyone.devicedetection

This package provides a generic DeviceDetectionPipelineBuilder which check the input arguments to determine the type of Device Detection engine to be used in the resulting pipeline. The engine can be either Cloud or On-Premise.

This package requires the following additional packages:

• fiftyone.devicedetection.cloud - A Node.js engine which retrieves engine results by consuming data from the 51Degrees cloud service. A cloud builder is also included to build a pipeline for device detection cloud engine.
• fiftyone.devicedetection.onpremise - A Node.js engine which retrieves engine results by consuming data from the 51Degrees data file. A on-premise builder is also included to build a pipeline for device detection on-premise engine.
• fiftyone.devicedetection.shared - A Node.js module which contains shared functionality to build cloud and on-premise engines.

Installation

Using NPM call:

npm install fiftyone.devicedetection

Examples

• gettingStarted.js - Getting started example of using the 51Degrees device detection 'Hash' algorithm to determine whether a given User-Agent corresponds to a mobile device or not.

Tests

In this repository, there are tests for the examples. You will need to install jest to run them:

npm install jest --global

You will also need to install any required packages for the examples in the Examples section.

You need to obtain a 51Degrees cloud resource key from the 51Degrees Cloud Configurator and assign it to the environment variable RESOURCE_KEY in your test environment.

To run the tests, navigate to the module directory and execute:

npm test
