User Agent
|
||||
==========
|
||||
|
||||
Bitmessage user agents are a modified browser user agent with more structure
|
||||
to aid parsers and provide some coherence. The user agent strings are arranged
|
||||
in a stack with the most underlying software listed first.
|
||||
|
||||
Basic format::
|
||||
|
||||
/Name:Version/Name:Version/.../
|
||||
|
||||
Example::
|
||||
|
||||
/PyBitmessage:0.2.2/Corporate Mail System:0.8/
|
||||
/Surdo:5.64/surdo-qt:0.4/
|
||||
|
||||
The version numbers are not defined to any strict format, although this guide
|
||||
recommends:
|
||||
|
||||
* Version numbers in the form of Major.Minor.Revision (2.6.41)
|
||||
* Repository builds using a date in the format of YYYYMMDD (20110128)
|
||||
|
||||
For git repository builds, implementations are free to use the git commitish.
|
||||
However the issue lies in that it is not immediately obvious without the
|
||||
repository which version preceeds another. For this reason, we lightly
|
||||
recommend dates in the format specified above, although this is by no means
|
||||
a requirement.
|
||||
|
||||
Optional ``-r1``, ``-r2``, ... can be appended to user agent version numbers.
|
||||
This is another light recommendation, but not a requirement. Implementations
|
||||
are free to specify version numbers in whatever format needed insofar as it
|
||||
does not include ``(``, ``)``, ``:`` or ``/`` to interfere with the user agent
|
||||
syntax.
|
||||
|
||||
An optional comments field after the version number is also allowed. Comments
|
||||
should be delimited by parenthesis ``(...)``. The contents of comments is
|
||||
entirely implementation defined although this document recommends the use of
|
||||
semi-colons ``;`` as a delimiter between pieces of information.
|
||||
|
||||
Example::
|
||||
|
||||
/cBitmessage:0.2(iPad; U; CPU OS 3_2_1)/AndroidBuild:0.8/
|
||||
|
||||
Reserved symbols are therefore: ``/ : ( )``
|
||||
|
||||
They should not be misused beyond what is specified in this section.
|
||||
|
||||
``/``
|
||||
separates the code-stack
|
||||
``:``
|
||||
specifies the implementation version of the particular stack
|
||||
``( and )``
|
||||
delimits a comment which optionally separates data using ``;``
