## Live DEMO

[Ngx Device Detector Demo](https://koderlabs.github.io/ngx-device-detector)


## Installation

To install this library, run:

```bash
$ npm install ngx-device-detector --save
```

## Usage
Import `DeviceDetectorModule` in your app.module.ts
```typescript
  import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
  import { DeviceDetectorModule } from 'ngx-device-detector';
  ...
  @NgModule({
    declarations: [
      ...
      LoginComponent,
      SignupComponent
      ...
    ],
    imports: [
      CommonModule,
      FormsModule,
      DeviceDetectorModule.forRoot()
    ],
    providers:[
      AuthService
    ]
    ...
  })
```

In your component where you want to use the Device Service
```typescript
  import { Component } from '@angular/core';
  ...
  import { DeviceDetectorService } from 'ngx-device-detector';
  ...
  @Component({
    selector: 'home',  // <home></home>
    styleUrls: [ './home.component.scss' ],
    templateUrl: './home.component.html',
    ...
  })

  export class HomeComponent {
    deviceInfo = null;
    ...
    constructor(..., private http: Http, private deviceService: DeviceDetectorService) {
      this.epicFunction();
    }
    ...
    epicFunction() {
      console.log('hello `Home` component');
      this.deviceInfo = this.deviceService.getDeviceInfo();
      const isMobile = this.deviceService.isMobile();
      const isTablet = this.deviceService.isTablet();
      const isDesktopDevice = this.deviceService.isDesktop();
      console.log(this.deviceInfo);
      console.log(isMobile);  // returns if the device is a mobile device (android / iPhone / windows-phone etc)
      console.log(isTablet);  // returns if the device us a tablet (iPad etc)
      console.log(isDesktopDevice); // returns if the app is running on a Desktop browser.
    }
    ...
  }

```

## IE10, IE11 Compatibility

If you're consuming the library for IE10 & IE11, make sure to uncomment (at least) these lines from `src/polyfills.ts` in your project.

```typescript
import 'core-js/es6/string';
import 'core-js/es6/array';
import 'core-js/es6/map';
```

## Credits

The library is inspired by and based on the work from [ng-device-detector ](https://github.com/srfrnk/ng-device-detector). Also used a typescript wrapper of the amazing work in [ReTree](https://github.com/srfrnk/re-tree) for regex based needs and an Angular2 Library Creator boilerplate to get the work started fast. I.e. [Generator Angular2 library](https://github.com/jvandemo/generator-angular2-library).
