# Description
`bot-detect` plugin can be used to identify and prevent web crawlers from crawling websites.

# Configuration Fields

| Name | Type | Requirement |  Default Value | Description |
| -------- | -------- | -------- | -------- | -------- |
|  allow     |  array of string     | Optional     |   -  |  A regular expression to match the User-Agent request header and will allow access if the match hits   |
|  deny     |  array of string     | Optional     |   -  |  A regular expression to match the User-Agent request header and will block the request if the match hits   |
|  blocked_code     |  number     | Optional     |   403  |  The HTTP status code returned when a request is blocked   |
|  blocked_message     |  string     | Optional     |   -  |  The HTTP response Body returned when a request is blocked   |

If field `allow` and field `deny` are not configured at the same time, the default logic to identify crawlers will be executed. By configuring the `allow` field, requests that would otherwise hit the default logic can be allowed. The judgement can be extended by configuring the `deny` field

The default set of crawler judgment regular expressions is as follows：

```bash
# Bots General matcher 'name/0.0'

# Configuration Samples

## Release Requests that would otherwise Hit the Crawler Rules
```yaml
allow:
- ".*Go-http-client.*"
```

Without this configuration, the default Golang web library request will be treated as a crawler and access will be denied.


## Add Crawler Judgement
```yaml
deny:
- "spd-tools.*"
```

According to this configuration, the following requests will be denied:

```bash
curl http://example.com -H 'User-Agent: spd-tools/1.1'
curl http://exmaple.com -H 'User-Agent: spd-tools'
```
