Client-Side Usage

Add script load to HTML:

<script type="text/javascript" src=".../re-tree.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src=".../ua-device-detector.js"></script>

Then use in your javascript:

var deviceInfo = window.uaDeviceDetector.parseUserAgent(options);

To use from angular:

Don't - Instead use ng-device-detector :)

Usage with Webpack:

An issue with webpack might cause an error like this:

- Critical dependency: require function is used in a way in which dependencies cannot be statically extracted

To solve add this to your webpack.config.js:

module.exports = {
  module: {
    unknownContextCritical: false
  }
};
