Prototype Client and Devices Indexes

[sanchezzzhak]

Description:

This enhancement adds indexing to clients and devices.

• php misc/generateIndexClient.php generate client indexes
• php misc/generateIndexDevice.php generate device indexes

use indexes for DeviceDetector

$dd = new DeviceDetector();
$dd->clientIndexes  = true;
$dd->deviceIndexes = true;
$dd->setUserAgent(' .... ');
$dd->setClientHints($clientHints);
$dd->parse();

• Does it speed up the process?
• Yes
• Is it effective ?
• Yes

Minuses:

• Long initialization -5sec for first call
• we to generate indexes every time, with every PR

this can only be useful for background processing or runtime service

Result:

32k test passed for 42sec+5sec init is use indexes

Review

• Functional review done
• Potential edge cases thought about (behavior of the code with strange input, with strange internal state or possible interactions with other Matomo subsystems)
• Usability review done (is anything maybe unclear or think about anything that would cause people to reach out to support)
• Security review done
• Wording review done
• Code review done
• Tests were added if useful/possible
• Reviewed for breaking changes
• Developer changelog updated if needed
• Documentation added if needed
• Existing documentation updated if needed

generate indexes every time, with every PR

It will be much better if it can be automated in some way, like README.
