# UserAgent
This package is same as useragent that Facebook's team uses in their products.

## Install
```bash
yarn add @reacttips/useragent

or

npm install @reacttips/useragent
```
## How to use
Let's assume that we have user agent data as following:
```javascript
const userAgentData = {
browserArchitecture: '32',
browserFullVersion: '7.0',
browserName: 'Mobile Safari',
deviceName: 'iPhone',
engineName: 'WebKit',
engineVersion: '537.51.2',
platformArchitecture: '64',
platformFullVersion: '7.1.2',
platformName: 'iOS',
}
```

There are some methods that you can use:

### isBrowser(query: string)

```javascript
// Use to detect by browser name
UserAgent.isBrowser('Mobile Safari') // true
UserAgent.isBrowser('Chrome') // false
UserAgent.isBrowser('Mobile Safari *') //true

// detect scope to specific versions
UserAgent.isBrowser('Mobile Safari *') // true
UserAgent.isBrowser('Mobile Safari 7') // true
UserAgent.isBrowser('Mobile Safari 7.0 - 7.1') // true
UserAgent.isBrowser('Chrome *') // false
UserAgent.isBrowser('Mobile Safari 6.0.1') // false
```

### isBrowserArchitecture(query: string)
```javascript
// Use to detect by browser architecture
UserAgent.isBrowserArchitecture('32') // true
UserAgent.isBrowserArchitecture('64') // false
```

### isPlatformArchitecture(query: string)
```javascript
// Use to detect by browser architecture
UserAgent.isPlatformArchitecture('32') // false
UserAgent.isPlatformArchitecture('64') // true
```

### isDevice(query: string)
```javascript
// Use to detect by device name
UserAgent.isDevice('iPhone') // true
UserAgent.isDevice('iPad') // false

// User to check does not expose version information
UserAgent.isDevice('iPhone *') // false
UserAgent.isDevice('iPhone 5s') // false
```

### isEngine(query: string)

```javascript
// Use to detect by engine name
UserAgent.isEngine('WebKit') // true
UserAgent.isEngine('Gecko') // false

// Use to check scope to specific versions
UserAgent.isEngine('WebKit *') // true
UserAgent.isEngine('WebKit 537.51.2') // true
UserAgent.isEngine('WebKit ~> 537.51.0') // true
UserAgent.isEngine('Gecko *') // false
UserAgent.isEngine('WebKit 536.0.0') // false
```

### isPlatform(query: string)

```javascript
// Use to detect by platform name
UserAgent.isPlatform('iOS') // true
UserAgent.isPlatform('Windows') // false

// Use to check scope to specific versions
UserAgent.isPlatform('iOS *') // true
UserAgent.isPlatform('iOS 7.1.2') // true
UserAgent.isPlatform('iOS 7.1.x || 6.1.x') // true

UserAgent.isPlatform('Windows *') // false
UserAgent.isPlatform('iOS 6') // false
```
### Other uses

We can also use to normalize Windows version numbers. Let's assume
user agent has:
```javascript
const userAgent = {
//... other properties
platformName: 'Windows',
platformFullVersion: '4.0',
}
```
Then we can use:
```javascript
UserAgent.isPlatform('Windows') // true
UserAgent.isPlatform('Windows NT4.0') // true
UserAgent.isPlatform('Windows Vista') // false
```
