Description
GooglePlusBot was originally used to generate link previews on Google Plus, but is now used for other use-cases like generating previews for links in SMS messages on Android (see fnando/browser#515 for additional context). The library doesn't tag this as a bot despite it being one.
Here's an example of the user agent processing:
from user_agents import parse
ua_string = 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/56.0.2924.87 Safari/537.36 Google-PageRenderer Google (+https://developers.google.com/+/web/snippet/)'
user_agent = parse(ua_string)
print('Browser?', user_agent.get_browser())
print('Is Bot?', user_agent.is_bot)Browser? GooglePlusBot
Is Bot? False
