Just write your own tiny middleware
app.use(function(req, res, next) {
res.locals.ua = req.get('User-Agent');
next();
});
Put this before your app.router
app.configure(function(){
app.set('port', process.env.PORT || 3000);
app.set('views', __dirname + '/views');
app.set('view engine', 'jade');
app.use(express.favicon());
app.use(express.logger('dev'));
app.use(express.bodyParser());
app.use(express.methodOverride());
// here
app.use(function(req, res, next) {
res.locals.ua = req.get('User-Agent');
next();
});
app.use(app.router);
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));
});
Then you can use the ua
variable in any jade
template (for example index.jade
)
extends layout
block content
h1= title
p Welcome to #{title}
p=ua
