How to use

As an ExpressJS middleware

const express = require('express')
const useragent = require('express-useragent-middleware')

const app = express()

app.use(useragent())
app.get('/', (req, res) => res.send(res.locals.useragent))
app.listen(3000)

On client side

import { UserAgent } from 'express-useragent-middleware'

const userAgent = new UserAgent(navigator.userAgent)
const parsedUserAgent = userAgent.getParsed()
