  1. Browscap provides an improved version of PHP's get_browser() function.
    2. 

  2. 

  3. The get_browser() function can be used to tell what a visitor's browser is
    4. 

  4. capable of. Unfortunately, the version provided by PHP has a number of
    5. 

  5. limitations, namely:
    6. 

  6. 

  7. * It can be difficult or impossible to configure for shared hosting
    8. 

  8.   environments.
    9. 

  9. * The data used to identify browsers and determine their capabilities requires
    10. 

  10.   consistent maintenance to keep up-to-date.
    11. 

  11. 

  12. Browscap automates maintenance by storing browser data in a database and
    13. 

  13. automatically retrieving the latest data on a configurable schedule.
    14. 

  14. 

  15. Requirements
    16. 

  16. ------------
    17. 

  17. 

  18. Browscap requires that your server be able to "phone out" (make a http request)
    19. 

  19. to retrieve and update its user agent database.
    20. 

  20. 

  21. Note: Some hosting companies have this capability blocked.
    22. 

  22. 

  23. 

  24. Recommendations
    25. 

  25. ---------------
    26. 

  26. 

  27. If you are using MySQL, it is recommended to use InnoDB and not MyISAM as the
    28. 

  28. table storage engine. (InnoDB is the default for Drupal 7.) MyISAM does not
    29. 

  29. support transactions, and without transactions Browscap may not return correct
    30. 

  30. browser information while new Browscap data is being loaded.
    31. 

  31. 

  32. 

  33. Installation
    34. 

  34. ------------
    35. 

  35. 

  36. Browscap can be installed via the standard Drupal installation process.
    37.

  39. 

  40. API
    41. 

  41. ---
    42. 

  42. 

  43. Modules can make use of browscap data by calling browscap_get_browser()
    44. 

  44. anywhere they would otherwise call the PHP get_browser()
    45. 

  45. (https://secure.php.net/manual/en/function.get-browser.php) function.
    46. 

  46. 

  47. Note: browser_name_regex is not returned.
    48. 

  48. 

  49. 

  50. Drush integration
    51. 

  51. -----------------
    52. 

  52. 

  53. To import the data via drush, use `drush browscap-import`.
