Yauaa: Yet Another UserAgent Analyzer

Travis Build status Coverage Status License Maven Central If this project has business value for you then don't hesitate to support me with a small donation.

This is a java library that tries to parse and analyze the useragent string and extract as many relevant attributes as possible.

A bit more background about this useragent parser can be found in this blog which I wrote about it: https://techlab.bol.com/making-sense-user-agent-string/

The full documentation can be found here https://yauaa.basjes.nl

Example output

As an example the useragent of my phone:

Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 7.0; Nexus 6 Build/NBD90Z) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/53.0.2785.124 Mobile Safari/537.36

is converted into this set of fields:

Field name Value

DeviceName 'Google Nexus 6'
DeviceBrand 'Google'
OperatingSystemClass 'Mobile'
OperatingSystemName 'Android'
OperatingSystemVersion '7.0'

NOTES

  1. This runs under a "Free quota" on Google AppEngine. If this quota is exceeded then it will simply become unavailable for that day.
  2. After a while of inactivity the instance is terminated so the first page may take 15-30 seconds to load.
  3. If you really like this then run it on your local systems. It's much faster that way.
