if($CrawlerDetect->isCrawler()) {
    // true if crawler user agent detected
}

// Pass a user agent as a string
if($CrawlerDetect->isCrawler('Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Sosospider/2.0; +http://help.soso.com/webspider.htm)')) {

Contributing

If you find a bot/spider/crawler user agent that CrawlerDetect fails to detect, please submit a pull request with the regex pattern added to the $data array in Fixtures/Crawlers.php and add the failing user agent to tests/crawlers.txt.

Failing that, just create an issue with the user agent you have found, and we'll take it from there :)
