Bots recognition #50

Open brokul-dev opened 2 years ago

brokul-dev commented 2 years ago

Hi! I tested it with the lighthouse and it seems that there is no bots recognition implemented. Every test made with this tool increments the visits counter. Would it be possible to ignore bots' track requests?

Hello,

we use this external library for bot recognition. https://github.com/avct/uasurfer Things not catched by it we just hard code there in the code somewhere. Do you have the complete user agent of a bot you would like to block list?

Thanks

I see. I've found the list of user agents used by the Google Lighthouse: https://developers.whatismybrowser.com/useragents/explore/software_name/google-lighthouse/
