uap-scala
A Scala user-agent string parser based on ua-parser/uap-core. It extracts browser, OS and device information.
Usage
To use this library in your own project, add the following dependency in build.sbt
:
libraryDependencies += "org.uaparser" %% "uap-scala" % "0.16.0"
Note about these examples
Instantiating Parser.default also instantiates secondary classes and reads in YAML files. This is slow. If performance is critical or you are handling user agents in real time, be sure not to do this on the critical path for processing requests.
Retrieve data on a user-agent string
import org.uaparser.scala.Parser
val ua = "Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 5_1_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/534.46 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.1 Mobile/9B206 Safari/7534.48.3"
val client = Parser.default.parse(ua) // you can also use CachingParser
println(client) // Client(UserAgent(Mobile Safari,Some(5),Some(1),None),OS(iOS,Some(5),Some(1),Some(1),None),Device(iPhone))
Extract partial data from user-agent string
The time costs of parsing all the data may be high. To reduce the costs, we can just parse partial data.
import org.uaparser.scala.Parser
val raw = "Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 5_1_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/534.46 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.1 Mobile/9B206 Safari/7534.48.3"
val parser = Parser.default
val os = parser.osParser.parse(raw)
println(os) // OS(iOS,Some(5),Some(1),Some(1),None)
val userAgent = parser.userAgentParser.parse(raw)
println(userAgent) // UserAgent(Mobile Safari,Some(5),Some(1),None)
val device = parser.deviceParser.parse(raw)
println(device) // Device(iPhone,Some(Apple),Some(iPhone))
Development
The code for this repository can be checked out normally. It uses a git submodule to include the files needed from uap-core so care must be taken to make sure the core
directory is properly checked out and initialized.
Checking out the repo for the first time
git clone --recursive https://github.com/ua-parser/uap-scala.git
If uap-scala was checked out and core was not properly initialized, the following can be done
cd uap-scala
git submodule update --init --recursive
Build
To build and publish locally for the default Scala (currently 2.13.11):
sbt publishLocal
To cross-build for different Scala versions:
