-----------------------------
Cherry UserAgent (cherry-ua)
============================
This is an advanced search and generate user agent python library, the user agents can be generated
based on various search parameters, it supports an advanced form of applying search filters.
Database
--------
It uses `Whatismybrowser <https://developers.whatismybrowser.com/useragents/database/>`_ **premium** database which
consists of more than `91+ Million` user agents, which ensures everytime it generates unique random user agents.
Compatibility
-------------
The library uses as much as possible inbuilt modules, so it support all major python version.
Installation
------------
.. code-block:: shell
pip install cherry-ua
Usage
-----
- The simplest way to use this library is:
.. code-block:: python
from cherry_ua import UserAgent
ua = UserAgent()
ua.get_random()
- To refresh the User Agent dataset
.. code-block:: python
ua.refresh()
- To get the size of User Agent dataset
.. code-block:: python
ua.size()
- To get specifc search filter query
.. code-block:: python
ua.get('device')
- To set specific search filter query
.. code-block:: python
ua.set('device', 'eq("mobile")')
- To get all the search filters
.. code-block:: python
ua.get_all_filters()
- To set multiple searcg filter queries
.. code-block:: python
ua.set_search_filters(device='eq("mobile")')
Search Filters
--------------
The ``UserAgent`` class support's multiple search parameters which can be used to get only
the user agent which satisfies your requirements. The parameters are:
* ``device``
| *Datatype* : String
| *Supported Operators* : ``eq``, ``ne``, ``contains``
| *Description* : This Signifies for which type of device you want user agent for.
.. code-block:: python
ua = UserAgent(device="eq('mobile')")
# or
ua.set('device', "eq('mobile')")
# or
ua.set_search_filters(device="eq('mobile')")
* ``os_name``
| *Datatype* : String
| *Supported Operators* : ``eq``, ``ne``, ``contains``
| *Description* : This Signifies for which OS (operating system) you want user agent for.
.. code-block:: python
ua = UserAgent(os_name="eq('windows')")
# or
ua.set('os_name', "eq('windows')")
# or
ua.set_search_filters(os_name="eq('windows')")
* ``os_version``
| *Datatype* : Integer
| *Supported Operators* : ``eq``, ``lt``, ``lte``, ``gt``, ``gte``, ``ne``
| *Description* : This Signifies for which OS version you want user agent for.
> This is an Integer field, so it won't take quotes inside the operator's
.. code-block:: python
ua = UserAgent(os_version="eq(8)")
# or
ua.set('os_version', "eq(8)")
# or
ua.set_search_filters(os_version="eq(8)")
* ``browser``
| *Datatype* : String
| *Supported Operators* : ``eq``, ``ne``, ``contains``
| *Description* : This Signifies for which browser you want user agent for.
.. code-block:: python
ua = UserAgent(browser="eq('chrome')")
# or
ua.set('browser', "eq('chrome')")
# or
ua.set_search_filters(browser="eq('chrome')")
* ``browser_engine``
| *Datatype* : String
| *Supported Operators* : ``eq``, ``ne``, ``contains``
| *Description* : This Signifies for which type of device you want user agent for.
.. code-block:: python
ua = UserAgent(browser_engine="eq('blink')")
# or
ua.set('browser_engine', "eq('blink')")
# or
ua.set_search_filters(browser_engine="eq('blink')")
* ``browser_version``
| *Datatype* : Integer
| *Supported Operators* : ``eq``, ``lt``, ``lte``, ``gt``, ``gte``, ``ne``
| *Description* : This Signifies for which type of device you want user agent for.
.. code-block:: python
ua = UserAgent(browser_version="eq(90)")
# or
ua.set('browser_version', "eq(90)")
# or
ua.set_search_filters(browser_version="eq(90)")
* ``limit``
| *Datatype* : Integer
| *Supported Operators* : ``eq``, ``lt``, ``lte``, ``gt``, ``gte``, ``ne``
| *Description* : This Signifies for which type of device you want user agent for.
``Note: Limit should be in the range of 1-10000``
.. code-block:: python
ua = UserAgent(limit=1000)
# or
ua.set('limit', 1000)
# or
ua.set_search_filters(limit=1000)
Search Filter Operators
-----------------------
To add the support for relative searching the filter's support some operators
just like SQL, which gives the flexibility to seearch in more customized way,
the operators it supports are:
``Note: More complex filter can result in less number of user agents as compared to what limit is set``
* ``eq``
| *Supported datatype* : ``String``, ``Integer``
| *Description* : This operator matches the exact value given
.. code-block:: python
ua.set('device', "eq('mobile')")
# matches user agent whose device is mobile
* ``lt``
| *Supported datatype* : ``Integer``
| *Description* : This operator matches if the value of field is less than the given value
.. code-block:: python
ua.set('os_version', "lt(8)")
# matches user agent whose os version is less than 8
* ``gt``
| *Supported datatype* : ``Integer``
| *Description* : This operator matches if the value of field is greater than the given value
.. code-block:: python
ua.set('os_version', "gt(8)")
# matches user agent whose os version is greater than 8
* ``lte``
| *Supported datatype* : ``Integer``
| *Description* : This operator matches if the value of field is less or equal to the given value
.. code-block:: python
ua.set('os_version', "lte(8)")
# matches user agent whose os version is less or equal to 8
* ``gte``
| *Supported datatype* : ``Integer``
| *Description* : This operator matches if the value of field is greater or equal to the given value
.. code-block:: python
ua.set('os_version', "gte(8)")
# matches user agent whose os version is greater or equal to 8
* ``ne``
| *Supported datatype* : ``String``, ``Integer``
| *Description* : This operator matches if the value of field is not equal to the given value
.. code-block:: python
ua.set('device', "ne('mobile')")
# matches user agent whose device is not equal to mobile
* ``contains`` (beta)
| *Supported datatype* : ``String``
| *Description* : This operator matches if the field value contains the given value
> This is still is beta stage, so might not work as you expect
.. code-block:: python
ua.set('device', "eq('mobile')")
# matches user agent whose device contains the word "mobile"
Operator Chaining
-----------------
The filter query also supports if you want to chain multiple operators, the supported
operator chaining are:
* ``and``
*Description* : The "and" operator chains multiple operator describing as it should
matches all the operator values.
.. code-block:: python
ua.set('device', "ne('mobile').and.ne('pc')")
# It matches user agent which has device value not equal to mobile and pc
# It can also be used to chaining multiple different operators
ua.set('os_version', "gt(5).and.lt(8)")
# It matches user agents which has os version greater than 5 and less than 8
* ``or``
*Description* : The "or" operator chains multiple operator describing as it should
matches any one of the operator values.
.. code-block:: python
ua.set('device', "ne('mobile').or.ne('pc')")
# It matches user agent which has device value not equal to mobile or pc
# It can also be used to chaining multiple different operators
ua.set('os_version', "eq(5).or.gt(8)")
# It matches user agents which has os version equal to 5 or greater than 8

Issues
------
If facing any issues in the library usage, please feel free to raise the issue in github `issue tracker <https://github.com/abhishek72850/cherry-ua/issues>`_,
since i am the only sole developer of this project it might get delayed to get it resolved but i'll
definetly try to resolve it.
Donate :pray:
-------------
This library itself doesn't need much maintenance, but since i am using a premium server to ensure faster and better API
performance to search and get user agents, so i have to pay bills to keep it running, as i committed to keep it running
but with a certain limitation, which i will remove if i get enough donation to support this open source project and also
i will publish the server side code once it gets enough popularity so that others can also look into it, and may suggest some
improvements.
