Devices Metadata

A collection of devices indexed by their identifiers. Currently, we only have Apple hardware in this list.

Usage

Import the getDeviceDataFromIdentifier from @barracuda-cloudgen-access/devices-metadata and use it like so:

const {
  getDeviceDataFromIdentifier,
} = require("@barracuda-cloudgen-access/devices-metadata");

const res = getDeviceDataFromIdentifier("iPad11,2");
console.log(res);

Running the above returns:

$ node script.js
{ name: 'iPad mini (5th gen)',
  category: 'tablet',
  brand: 'apple' }

Build

First, build the docker container locally:

$ docker build -t device-metadata .

Next, run the generation script (needs docker):

$ docker run -v "$PWD":/home/user/app device-metadata node scripts/crawl.js

{
  "i386": {
    "name": "32-bit Simulator",
    "category": "simulator",
    "brand": "apple"
  },
  "x86_64": {
    "name": "64-bit Simulator",
    "category": "simulator",
  ...

The script prints the generated JSON directly to stdout. All logs go to stderr.
