README

The Laravel wrapper for Matomo Universal Device Detection library seamlessly integrates device detection capabilities into Laravel applications.

Installation

This package can be installed through Composer.

composer require reefki/laravel-device-detector

Optionally, you can publish the config file of this package with this command:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Reefki\DeviceDetector\DeviceDetectorServiceProvider" --tag="config"

Usage

Detect device from a user agent string:

use Reefki\DeviceDetector\Device;

$device = Device::detect($request->userAgent());

Detect device from a user agent string and optional hints:

use Reefki\DeviceDetector\Device;

$device = Device::detect($request->userAgent(), $request->server());

Detect device from a request instance:

use Reefki\DeviceDetector\Device;

$device = Device::detectRequest($request);

Detect device directly from a request instance:

$device = $request->device();

All of the above methods wil return a DeviceDetector\DeviceDetector instance which you can use to get the information about the device:

if ($device->isBot()) {
    $botInfo = $device->getBot();
} else {
    $clientInfo = $device->getClient();
    $osInfo = $device->getOs();
    $deviceName = $device->getDeviceName();
    $brand = $device->getBrandName();
    $model = $device->getModel();
}

Read the Matomo's Universal Device Detection library readme for more information on how to use the returned instance.

Testing

Run the tests with:

vendor/bin/phpunit
