CloudFront Support

If a user-agent is 'Amazon CloudFront', nuxt-device-detect checks the both headers 'CloudFront-Is-Mobile-Viewer' and 'CloudFront-Is-Tablet-Viewer'.

Here are the details about the headers: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/header-caching.html#header-caching-web-device

Caution

isIos, isWindows and isMacOS flags are not available with CloudFront.

Usage

Switch a view

<template>
    <section>
        <div v-if="$device.isDesktop">
            Desktop
        </div>
        <div v-else-if="$device.isTablet">
            Tablet
        </div>
        <div v-else>
            Mobile
        </div>
    </section>
</template>

Ofcourse, you can use $device via this in a script.

Change a layout dynamically

export default {
    layout: (ctx) => ctx.isMobile ? 'mobile' : 'default'
}
