Get OS and Version

[SimonVillage]

Is there a solution to get the OS and Version tracked in UA?
Would this be an option?

visitor.set('ua', process.platform +' '+ require('os').release());

Of course it is, but I assume you want the visitor's user agent?

In Express you could use something like this:

visitor.set('ua', req.headers['user-agent']);

We are developing an electron app so the user-agent should be always the same or am I wrong?

[jtillmann]

I wasn't aware you're talking about an Electron app. I'm not sure if the UA should always be the same.

I'm not sure if process.platform +' '+ require('os').release() will result in a User Agent string that GA will process.

You should know best how to access Electron's User Agent from within the app. You can directly pass that to the ua parameter.

Hello, I am facing a similar problem. I want to set the userAgent in a way that GA will extract OS and Browser from it. @SimonHausdorf when I try to use your version all ua traffic is mapped to the browser field. Did you get this working? Thanks
