How to detect bunsen #34

Closed tiagoantao closed 6 years ago

tiagoantao commented 6 years ago

I have a small library to detect dat browsers: https://github.com/tiagoantao/dat_detector (so that dat-specific content can be served or client side code can interact with dat)

Currently it supports Beaker, and I would like to support Bunsen as well. But the problem is that I have no way to test this.

For example with Beaker I just need to see if BeakerBrowser is passed as the User-Agent on the server side. On the client side i check for window.DatArchive

I am wondering if there is a similar way to detect Bunsen?

Hey, this is a cool idea! I just pushed a big refactor to master that gives us broader device support and intents, so if the user clicks a link to a dat site (dat:// scheme) Bunsen should open it.

I'll see if we can add BunsenBrowser to out User-Agent.

I'm adding the following to config.xml to append "BunsenBrowser" to the User-Agent string and enable detection of Bunsen"

    <preference name="AppendUserAgent" value="BunsenBrowser" />

I've got some UI changes to make now; I'll push this out later in the day and close this issue after testing.

Thanks for the good idea!

This should now be active in all new releases. I'm closing this issue; however, please re-open if it doesn't work for you.
