Java/Scala: [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/snowplow/referer-parser.png)](https://travis-ci.org/snowplow/referer-parser)

referer-parser is a multi-language library for extracting marketing attribution data (such as search terms) from referer URLs, inspired by the [ua-parser] [ua-parser] project (an equivalent library for user agent parsing).
referer-parser is a database for extracting marketing attribution data (such as search terms) from referer URLs, inspired by the [ua-parser] [ua-parser] project (an equivalent library for user agent parsing).

The referer-parser project also contains multiple libraries for working with the referer-parser database in different languages.

referer-parser is a core component of [Snowplow] [snowplow], the open-source web-scale analytics platform powered by Hadoop and Redshift.

_Note that we always use the original HTTP misspelling of 'referer' (and thus 'referal') in this project - never 'referrer'._

## Database

The latest database is always available on this URL:

https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/snowplow-hosted-assets/third-party/referer-parser/referers-latest.yml

The database is updated at most once a month. Each new version of the database is also uploaded with a timestamp:

https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/snowplow-hosted-assets/third-party/referer-parser/referers-YYYY-MM.yml

If there is an issue with the database necessitating a re-release within the month, the corresponding files will be overwritten.
