PHP Laravel：如何获取客户端浏览器/设备？

Question

I'm building a laravel application where I want to keep track of client browser details such as browser name. How do I do it using Laravel ?

public function postUser(Request $request)
    {        
            $user = new User();                                 
            $user->name = $request->Input(['name']);           
            $device=   $request->header('User-Agent');
            dd($device);
            $user->save();            
            return redirect('userSavePage');          
    }

I have used this $device= $request->header('User-Agent'); But while I dd() the output I get something Like this:

"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/50.0.2661.102 Safari/537.36"

How do I get actual browser details?

Answer 1

First add the package to your composer:

{
    "require": {
        "hisorange/browser-detect": "2.*" // For laravel 5.* versions
        "hisorange/browser-detect": "1.*" // For laravel 4.* versions
    }
}

After the composer update/install add the service provider to your app.php:

'providers' => array(
    // ...
    'hisorange\BrowserDetect\Provider\BrowserDetectService',
    // ...
)

Add the alias to the aliases in your app.php:

'aliases' => array(
    // ...
    'BrowserDetect' => 'hisorange\BrowserDetect\Facade\Parser',
)

You must use personal configurations, just publish the package's configuration files, (plugins.php also published with this)

php artisan vendor:publish

You can get result informations by simply call on the facade.

// You can always get the result object from the facade if you wish to operate with it.
BrowserDetect::detect(); // Will resolve and return with the 'browser.result' container.

// Calls are mirrored to the result object for easier use.
BrowserDetect::browserVersion(); // return '3.6' string.

// Supporting human readable formats.
BrowserDetect::browserName(); // return 'Firefox 3.6' string.

// Or can be objective.
BrowserDetect::browserFamily(); // return 'Firefox' string.
