User Agent Bag

Parse User-Agents per RFC7231. Doesn't handle all the weirdness around real User-Agents, just parses things per the spec.

const UserAgentBag = require("user-agent-bag");

const firefoxBag = new UserAgentBag(
  "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:47.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/47.0"
);
firefoxBag.get("Mozilla");
// => '5.0'
firefoxBag.has("Gecko");
// => true

const customBag = new UserAgentBag([
  ["Foo", "bar"],
  ["Baz", null],
]);
customBag.toString();
// => 'Foo/bar Baz'

API documentation

Creates a new UserAgentBag by parsing string as a User-Agent per RFC7231. string must have a length of 256 characters or less (this limit may be configurable in the future). If there are any errors in parsing, the bag will be empty.

const validBag = new UserAgentBag("Foo/1.2");
validBag.get("Foo");
// => '1.2'

const invalidStringBag = new UserAgentBag(
  "Foo/1.2 IsInvalidBecauseVersionIsMissing/"
);
invalidStringBag.get("Foo");
// => undefined

Creates a new UserAgentBag from iterable. Elements of iterable are key-value pairs.

const bagFromEntries = new UserAgentBag([
  ["Foo", "1.2"],
  ["Bar", null],
]);
bagFromEntries.toString();
// => 'Foo/1.2 Bar'

const myMap = new Map();
myMap.set("Baz", "5");
myMap.set("Qux", "6");
const bagFromMap = new UserAgentBag(myMap);
bagFromMap.toString();
// => 'Baz/5 Qux/6'

Returns an iterable yielding each of the product-version pairs in the bag. Like Map.prototype.entries.

const bag = new UserAgentBag("Foo/1.2 Bar Baz/3.4");

for (const [product, version] of bag.entries()) {
  console.log(product + " version " + version);
}
// Logs:
// Foo version 1.2
// Bar version null
// Baz version 3.4

Returns the version of the product. If product is in the bag multiple times, only the first value is returned. If no version is specified, null is returned. If the product is missing from the bag, undefined is returned.

const bag = new UserAgentBag("Foo/1.2 Bar/4.5 Bar/6.7 Baz");

bag.get("Foo");
// => '1.2'

bag.get("Bar");
// => '4.5'

bag.get("Baz");
// => null

bag.get("missing");
// => undefined

bag.get("foo");
// => undefined

Returns all specified versions of the product as an array. null represents the absence of a version. If the product is missing from the bag, the empty array is returned.

const bag = new UserAgentBag("Foo/1.2 Bar/4.5 Bar/null");

bag.getAll("Foo");
// => ['1.2']

bag.getAll("Bar");
// => ['4.5', null]

bag.get("missing");
// => []

Returns true if product is in the bag, false otherwise.

const bag = new UserAgentBag("Foo/1.2 Bar");

bag.has("Foo");
// => true

bag.has("Bar");
// => true

bag.has("missing");
// => false

Returns the number of products in the bag.

const bag = new UserAgentBag("Foo/1.2 (ignored comment) Bar/3 Bar/4");
bag.size();
// => 3

Converts the bag to a string. Useful when constructing your own User-Agents.

const bag = new UserAgentBag([
  ["Foo", "1.2"],
  ["Bar", null],
]);
bag.toString();
// => 'Foo/1.2 Bar'
