Different data for different user agent with Nodejs

Question

I want to make my Nodejs app for different user agents(Web, iOS, Android) with different data(i.e filter field for certain user agent). Should I do different route for each or put in the same route and conditioning user agent? If I have to do in same route, which node module you recommend me?

Answer 1

You can use the same route and useragent package to parse the req.headers['user-agent'] (express) variable.

Example:

const useragent = require('useragent')
// ...
const ua = useragent.is(req.headers['user-agent'])

if (ua.firefox) {
 // firefox stuff
} else if (ua.chrome) {
 // chrome suff
}
