51Degrees Device Detection Engines
Pipeline API
Introduction
This repository contains the device detection engines for the .NET implementation of the Pipeline API.
The specification is also available on GitHub and is recommended reading if you wish to understand the concepts and design of this API.
Dependencies
Visual Studio 2022 or later is recommended. Although Visual Studio Code can be used for working with most of the projects.
The core device detection projects are written in C and C++. The Pipeline engines are written in C# and target .NET Standard 2.0.3. Example and test projects mostly target .NET 6.0 though in some cases, projects are available targeting other frameworks.
For runtime dependencies, see our
dependencies
page. The ci/options.json file lists the tested and packaged .NET versions
and operating systems automatic tests are performed with. The solution will
likely operate with other versions.
Data
The API can either use our cloud service to get its data or it can use a local (on-premise) copy of the data.
Cloud
You will require a resource key to use the Cloud API. You can create resource keys using our configurator, see our documentation on how to use this.
On-Premise
In order to perform device detection on-premise, you will need to use a 51Degrees data file. This repository includes a free, 'lite' file in the 'device-detection-data' sub-module that has a significantly reduced set of properties. To obtain a file with a more complete set of device properties see the . If you want to use the lite file, you will need to install .
