Back to TOC
init
syntax: require("resty.mobile").init(path)
Parses json definitions file and populates shared dict.
Back to TOC
detect
syntax: require("resty.mobile").detect(cookiename)
Detects mobile device.
Returns 'false' if detection done via cookie or 'true' if detection done via rules
Returns 'false' (and logs error) on any error.
If parameter is ommited, library will parse headers every time.
If parameter is a string - cookie with this name will be checked, and, if exists, check will be skipped.
This method also requires (and sets) nginx variable $mobile_device, which will be set to string 'computer', 'phone' or 'tablet' depending on device.
