Yii2 extension. Provides detailed information about the browser.

Current available providers:

- Browscap ()

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

The preferred way to install this extension is through [composer](http://getcomposer.org/download/).

To install, either run

```
$ php composer.phar require alexander-suter/yii2-browser-info "*"

```

or add

```
"alexander-suter/yii2-browser-info": "*"

```

to the `require` section of your `composer.json` file.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

This extensions works with a cache in the background. You have to update the cache from time to time.

Create a cronjob and execute following command:

```
./yii browser-info/update-cache

```

Use dependency injection to define the concret instance:

```
Yii::$container->set('asu\browserinfo\BrowserInfo', [
            'class' => 'asu\browserinfo\BrowserInfoBrowscap',
            'memoryLimit' => '512M'
]);
```

The Browscap implementation needs much memory to update the cache.

To get browser information in a controller you can now use your DI-Definition:

```
class SiteController extends Controller {
      private $browserInfo = null;
      public function __construct($id, $module, BrowserInfo $browserInfo, $config = []) {
        $this->browserInfo = $browserInfo;
        parent::__construct($id, $module, $config);
      }
      public function actionIndex() {
        echo $this->browserInfo->getBrowserName();
      }
}
```
