Agent
=====

[](#agent)

A PHP desktop/mobile user agent parser with support for Laravel, based on [Mobile Detect](https://github.com/serbanghita/Mobile-Detect) with desktop support and additional functionality.

Note

This is a modified version of [jenssegers/agent](https://github.com/jenssegers/agent) to support PHP 8.0 up and MobileDetect 4.x.

Note

This is a modified version of [asika32764/agent](https://github.com/asika32764/agent) to support PHP 8.0 up and MobileDetect 4.x. with a few fixes for personal projects. All kudo's to Asika32764 for the updated work. I'd recommend using his package instead if you want a barebones upgrade of the jenssegers/agent package.

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

[](#installation)

Install using composer:

```
composer require jbsommeling/agent
```

Laravel (optional)
------------------

[](#laravel-optional)

Add the service provider in `config/app.php`:

```
JBSommeling\Agent\AgentServiceProvider::class,
```

And add the Agent alias to `config/app.php`:

```
'Agent' => JBSommeling\Agent\Facades\Agent::class,
```

Basic Usage
-----------

[](#basic-usage)

Start by creating an `Agent` instance (or use the `Agent` Facade if you are using Laravel):

```
use JBSommeling\Agent\Agent;

$agent = new Agent();
```

If you want to parse user agents other than the current request in CLI scripts for example, you can use the `setUserAgent` and `setHttpHeaders` methods:

```
$agent->setUserAgent('Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_8) AppleWebKit/537.13+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.1.7 Safari/534.57.2');
$agent->setHttpHeaders($headers);
```

All of the original [Mobile Detect](https://github.com/serbanghita/Mobile-Detect) methods are still available, check out some original examples at

### Is?

[](#is)

Check for a certain property in the user agent.

```
$agent->is('Windows');
$agent->is('Firefox');
$agent->is('iPhone');
$agent->is('macOS');
```

### Magic is-method

[](#magic-is-method)

Magic method that does the same as the previous `is()` method:

```
$agent->isAndroidOS();
$agent->isNexus();
$agent->isSafari();
```

### Mobile detection

[](#mobile-detection)

Check for mobile device:

```
$agent->isMobile();
$agent->isTablet();
```

### Match user agent

[](#match-user-agent)

Search the user agent with a regular expression:

```
$agent->match('regexp');
```

Additional Functionality
------------------------

[](#additional-functionality)

### Accept languages

[](#accept-languages)

Get the browser's accept languages. Example:

```
$languages = $agent->languages();
// ['nl-nl', 'nl', 'en-us', 'en']
```

### Device name

[](#device-name)

Get the device name, if mobile. (iPhone, Nexus, AsusTablet, ...)

```
$device = $agent->device();
```

### Operating system name

[](#operating-system-name)

Get the operating system. (Ubuntu, Windows, OS X, ...)

```
$platform = $agent->platform();
```

### Browser name

[](#browser-name)

Get the browser name. (Chrome, IE, Safari, Firefox, ...)

```
$browser = $agent->browser();
```

### Desktop detection

[](#desktop-detection)

Check if the user is using a desktop device.

```
$agent->isDesktop();
```

*This checks if a user is not a mobile device, tablet or robot.*

### Phone detection

[](#phone-detection)

Check if the user is using a phone device.

```
$agent->isPhone();
```

### Robot detection

[](#robot-detection)

Check if the user is a robot. This uses [jaybizzle/crawler-detect](https://github.com/JayBizzle/Crawler-Detect) to do the actual robot detection.

```
$agent->isRobot();
```

### Robot name

[](#robot-name)

Get the robot name.

```
$robot = $agent->robot();
```

### Browser/platform version

[](#browserplatform-version)

MobileDetect recently added a `version` method that can get the version number for components. To get the browser or platform version you can use:

```
$browser = $agent->browser();
$version = $agent->version($browser);

$platform = $agent->platform();
$version = $agent->version($platform);
```

*Note, the version method is still in beta, so it might not return the correct result.*
