Elixir addition
You can also pass Plug.Conn
instead of a string, the user-agent
header will
be extracted and used.
Browser.bot?(conn)
Configuration
You can specify custom bots.txt file in your project's config.
config :browser,
bots_file: Path.join(File.cwd!, "bots.txt") # bots.txt in project's root
Please note that option set as mobule attribute during compile time, so make sure you recompiled elixir-browser after changing this option or bots file itself.
