Python interface to PyPI Stats API to get aggregate download statistics on Python packages on the Python Package Index without having to execute queries directly against Google BigQuery.
Data is available for the last 180 days. (For longer time periods, pypinfo can help, you'll need an API key and get free quota.)
python3 -m pip install --upgrade pypistatsgit clone https://github.com/hugovk/pypistats
cd pypistats
python3 -m pip install .Run pypistats with a subcommand (corresponding to
PyPI Stats endpoints), then options for that
subcommand.
Top-level help:
$ pypistats --help
usage: pypistats [-h] [-V]
{recent,overall,python_major,python_minor,system} ...
positional arguments:
{recent,overall,python_major,python_minor,system}
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-V, --version show program's version number and exitHelp for a subcommand:
$ pypistats recent --help

pip install --upgrade "pypistats[numpy]"
pip install --upgrade "pypistats[pandas]"
pip install --upgrade "pypistats[numpy,pandas]"Return data in a NumPy array for further processing:
