const result = browser();
console.log(result);
```
**output**
```javascript
{
name: 'node',
version: '9.9.0',
versionNumber: 9.9,

os: 'win32'
}
```

```javascript
const router = express.Router();
const browser = require('browser-detect');
router.get('/', req => {
const result = browser(req.headers['user-agent']);
console.log(result);
});
return router;
```
**output**
```javascript
{
name: 'ie',
version: '9.0',
versionNumber: 9,
mobile: false,
os: 'Windows NT 10.0'
}
```
Or set a middleware and send to `res.locals`.
```javascript
// browserDetectMiddleware.js
const browser = require('browser-detect');
const MiddleWare = () => req => {
res.locals.browser = browser(req.headers['user-agent']);
next();
};
module.exports = MiddleWare;
```
```javascript
// app.js
const express = require('express');
const browserDetectMiddleware = require('./browserDetectMiddleware');
const app = express();
app.use(browserDetectMiddleware())
```
View will can access `browser` variable.
```ejs
<%=JSON.stringify(browser)%>
```
**output**
```javascript
"{ name: 'firefox', version: '53.0.0', versionNumber: 53, mobile: false, os: 'Windows NT 10.0' }"
```
