DeviceDetector

DeviceDetector is a precise and fast user agent parser and device detector written in Python, backed by the largest and most up-to-date user agent database.

DeviceDetector will parse any user agent and detect the browser, operating system, device used (desktop, tablet, mobile, tv, cars, console, etc.), brand and model. DeviceDetector detects thousands of user agent strings, even from rare and obscure browsers and devices.

The DeviceDetector is optimized for speed of detection, by providing optimized code and in-memory caching.

This project originated as a Python port of the Universal Device Detection library. You can find the original code https://github.com/matomo-org/device-detector.

Disclaimer

This port is not an exact copy of the original code; some Pythonic adaptations were used. However, it uses the original regex yaml files, to benefit from updates and pull request to both the original and the ported versions.

Installation

pip install device_detector

Performance Options

CSafeLoader is used if pyyaml is configured --with-libyaml.

The mrab regex module is preferred if installed.

Usage

from device_detector import DeviceDetector

ua = 'Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 4.3; C5502 Build/10.4.1.B.0.101) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/33.0.1750.136 Mobile Safari/537.36'

# Parse UA string and load data to dict of 'os', 'client', 'device' keys
device = DeviceDetector(ua).parse()

# Use helper methods to extract data by attribute

device.is_bot()      # >>> False

device.os_name()     # >>> Android
device.os_version()  # >>> 4.3
device.engine()      # >>> WebKit

device.device_brand_name()  # >>> Sony
device.device_brand()       # >>> SO
device.device_model()       # >>> Xperia ZR
device.device_type()        # >>> smartphone
