Django Mobileesp

Detect request's mobile user agents using the mobileesp lib.

This is an alternative to django-user_agents project.

Install

pip install django_mobileesp

Usage

Add to your settings.py:

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
    ...
    'django_mobileesp.middleware.UserAgentDetectionMiddleware'
)

from django_mobileesp.detector import mobileesp_agent as agent

DETECT_USER_AGENTS = {
    'is_android': agent.detectAndroid,
    'is_ios': agent.detectIos,
    'is_windows_phone': agent.detectWindowsPhone,
    'is_mobile': agent.detectTierTablet | \
                 agent.detectTierIphone | \
                 agent.detectMobileQuick,
}

Adapt the DETECT_USER_AGENTS to your needs:

• Key: name of attribute to add to each request instance.
• Value: bounded method to be invocked on each request by UserAgentDetectionMiddleware.
  • Can be combined with &(AND) and |(OR) operands.
  • Read the mobileesp docs to check all the available methods.

If you prefer more pythonic methods, you can user a wrapper agent as follows:

from django_mobileesp.detector import python_agent as agent

DETECT_USER_AGENTS = {
    'is_android': agent.detect_android,
    'is_ios': agent.detect_ios,
    'is_windows_phone': agent.detect_windows_phone,
    'is_mobile': agent.detect_tier_tablet | \
                 agent.detect_tier_iphone | \
                 agent.detect_mobile_quick,
}

Finally access the defined attributes in your views:

def view(request):
    if request.is_mobile:
        ...
