Introducing Laravel Identify 1.0
Packages with simple or complex functionalities have made development easier.
Currently, you just have to think of your app’s business logic alone while leveraging the help of packages to take care of other functionalities.
Detecting the browser, device and operating system that a user is using to surf your app can prove to be a pain in PHP. I was developing a Laravel app that needed these statistics to be able to perform specific operations, thus bringing about the idea of wrapping it up in a Laravel Package.
Just a little snippet:
|
1 2 3 4 5 |
Identify::browser()->getName(); //returns the name of the browser the user is using Identify::device()->getName(); //returns the name of the device the user is using |
The name of the package is Laravel Identify. There is a comprehensive documentation on the ReadMe to get you started.
It’s hosted on packagist.org. So you can pull it with composer like so:
|
1 |
composer require "unicodeveloper/laravel-identify": "1.0.*" |
I released it in the early hours of today.
Stay tuned and even watch the repo to be notified once there is a new release.
Please, STAR the repo if you like it
