UserAgent options has is not considered in version 2.2.1.

When I am passing userAgent option, it is not getting passed while requesting for the URL. Please look into this.

I am passing userAgent as below:

var options = {
    userAgent: 'my_custom_useragent'
};
const urlMetadata = require('url-metadata');
urlMetadata(url, options);

In this case my_custom_useragent is ignored.

Hi there, Just looked into this and it appears to be working, your issue may be in a different layer in your code. I triple checked at 3 levels: as the userAgent option is passed into the request module from this url-metadata module, and where it is propagated out from the request module (the module that this package depends on to make the call).

I checked via consoling out the data in the command line in both modules ...and just to be sure, i also fired up WireShark locally to verify that the call was going out with the user agent set properly.

Screenshots below:

1. from terminal showing both modules parsing userAgent correctly
2. WireShark showing that the User-Agent header is indeed going out with the request from my local command line interface

Feel free to reopen if you have further issues or encounter the bug in some way that i was not able to reproduce.
