Important Information

Using Browscap

Supported - with PHP

We only officially support using the browscap-php library. Other methods of loading the files are not supported, but we'll do our best to help when time permits.

Other Languages

You can visit our wiki page on Using Browscap to find a library to use for your programming language. Libraries exist for Perl, Python, ASP, C#, Pascal, ColdFusion, Ruby, and Java (although none are officially supported).

Rate Limiting

Downloading the INI files here implies you agree to our fair usage policy. Any repeat attempts to download the files will be banned. We highly recommend that you request the version URL and compare your current version against the latest version before requesting the download URL.

We have implemented rate limiting and banning with the following rules:

• You may download 30 files per 1 hour period. If you exceed this you will be temporarily banned for 1 hour.
• You are allowed up to 5 temporary bans in a 3 day period. If you exceed this, you will be permanently banned.
• If you are permanently banned, please contact us via the our GitHub tracker to discuss your situation.
• Rate limiting is not applied to requests to /version or /version-number requests.
