ua_parser C++ Library

Usage

Linux

To build the (static) library:

make uaparser_cpp

To build and run the tests:

make test

A recent (GCC >= 4.8 or Clang >= 3.9 both work) C++11 compiler is required.

CMake build

libraries

cd uap-cpp
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..

make uap-cpp-static

make uap-cpp-shared

tests

Prepare gtest:

apt-get install libgtest-dev
apt-get install cmake
cd /usr/src/gtest
cmake CMakeLists.txt
make
cp *.a /usr/lib

Run from build directory:

make tests

Run from uap-cpp directory:

./build/UaParserTest

benchmark

Run from build directory:

make bench

Run from uap-cpp directory:

time ./build/UaParserBench uap-core/regexes.yaml benchmarks/useragents.txt 1000

Windows

First, open uap-cpp.sln with MSVC 15 (Visual Studio 2017).

To build the (static) library:

build the "UaParser" project

To build and run the tests:

build the "UaParserTest" project

The MSVC projects assume boost to be installed at: C:\boost_1_69_0 and yaml to be installed at: C:\yaml-cpp. Change these paths if needed. boost_regex needs to be built from source in advance. For yaml-cpp, you can built it from source, or use a prebuilt here.

Dependencies

• re2, yaml-cpp (0.5 API)
• gtest (for testing)
• uap-core, same directory level as uap-cpp. You can clone this repo with --recurse-submodules to get it. Alternatively, run git submodule update --init.

Contributing

Pull requests are welcome. Use clang-format -i *.cpp *.h to format the sources before sending the patch.
