Example:

var Browscap = require('browscap-js'); var browscap = new Browscap(); var browser = browscap.getBrowser("Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; WinTSI 05.11.2009)"); //Will print "IE 8.0" console.log(browser.Browser + " " + browser.Version);

Using npm run npm install browscap-js

You can get npm from http://npmjs.org/

Alternatively you can clone the git repository

There are test files which demonstrates how to use index.js and test several user agents.
