Device

Structin device_detectionfastly 0.13.1View source
pub struct Device { /* private fields */ }

The device data associated with a particular User-Agent string.

Methods

brand

View source
fn brand(&self) -> Option<&str>

The brand of the client device, possibly different from the manufacturer of that device.

Parameters

self: &Self

Returns

Option<&str>

device_name

View source
fn device_name(&self) -> Option<&str>

The name of the client device.

Parameters

self: &Self

Returns

Option<&str>

hwtype

View source
fn hwtype(&self) -> Option<&str>

A string representation of the primary client platform hardware. The most commonly used device types are also identified via boolean variables. Because a device may have multiple device types and this variable only has the primary type, we recommend using the boolean variables for logic and using this string representation for logging.

Parameters

self: &Self

Returns

Option<&str>

is_bot

View source
fn is_bot(&self) -> Option<bool>

The client's User-Agent was recognized as belonging to a bot.

Parameters

self: &Self

Returns

Option<bool>

is_desktop

View source
fn is_desktop(&self) -> Option<bool>

The client is a desktop web browser.

Parameters

self: &Self

Returns

Option<bool>

is_downloader

View source
fn is_downloader(&self) -> Option<bool>

The client's User-Agent was recognized as belonging to a downloader.

Parameters

self: &Self

Returns

Option<bool>

is_ereader

View source
fn is_ereader(&self) -> Option<bool>

The client device is a reading device (like a Kindle).

Parameters

self: &Self

Returns

Option<bool>

is_feedreader

View source
fn is_feedreader(&self) -> Option<bool>

The client's User-Agent was recognized as belonging to a feedreader.

Parameters

self: &Self

Returns

Option<bool>

is_gameconsole

View source
fn is_gameconsole(&self) -> Option<bool>

The client device is a video game console (like a PlayStation or Xbox).

Parameters

self: &Self

Returns

Option<bool>

is_identified

View source
fn is_identified(&self) -> Option<bool>

The client's User-Agent was identified.

This returns true when it is possible to populate client device properties based on information supplied in the User-Agent. Which means that in each field of Device we have at least one property that is Some(T).

Parameters

self: &Self

Returns

Option<bool>

is_mediaplayer
