useragents
A Python module which does one thing: giving you a random User-Agent Header
Do not worry about sticking with a single user-agent for you HTTP requests ever again!
Getting Started
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.
Prerequisites
You will need to have Python installed on your computer to use this software
According to Vermin, Python 3.0 or higher is needed to use pyuseragents
even if it does work on Python 2.
Always check if your Python version works with pyuseragents
before using it in production
Tested manually on Python 2.7
and Python 3.9
and Python 3.12.2
Tested automatically (CI) with Pytest on CPython 3.7.17
, 3.8.18
, 3.9.19
, 3.10.14
, 3.11.9
, 3.12.3
, 3.13.0-beta.1
, on PyPy 3.9
and on GraalPy 24.0
Installing
You can install it from PyPI with:
pip install --upgrade pyuseragents
You can check if you successfully installed it by printing out its version:
python -c "import pyuseragents; print(pyuseragents.__version__)"
# output:
pyuseragents v1.0.5
List of User-Agents
The list of User-Agents headers has been crawled from various sources.
They are all available in the pyuseragents/data/list.py
file.
The list being in a python module means that it will be preloaded by Python in memory for performance reasons.
Usage
>>> import pyuseragents
>>> headers = {
"User-Agent": pyuseragents.random(),
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"and so on..."
}
>>> pyuseragents.random()
"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/60.0.3112.113 Safari/537.36"
Deployment
This module should be stable but might contain bugs with edge-cases.
