Python 3.6+ interface to [PyPI Stats API](https://pypistats.org/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](https://pypistats.org/about#data). (For longer
time periods, [pypinfo](https://github.com/ofek/pypinfo) can help, you'll need an API
key and get free quota.)
## Installation
### From PyPI
```bash
pip install --upgrade pypistats
```
### From source
```bash
git clone https://github.com/hugovk/pypistats
cd pypistats
pip install .
```
## Example command-line use
Run `pypistats` with a subcommand (corresponding to
[PyPI Stats endpoints](https://pypistats.org/api/#endpoints)), then options for that
subcommand.
Top-level help:
```console
$ pypistats --help
usage: pypistats [-h] [-V] {recent,overall,python_major,python_minor,system} ...
positional arguments:
{recent,overall,python_major,python_minor,system}
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-V, --version show program's version number and exit
```
Help for a subcommand:
```console
$ pypistats recent --help
usage: pypistats recent [-h] [-p {day,week,month}] [-f {html,json,markdown,rst,tsv}] [-j] [-v] package
Retrieve the aggregate download quantities for the last day/week/month
positional arguments:
package
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-p {day,week,month}, --period {day,week,month}
-f {html,json,markdown,rst,tsv}, --format {html,json,markdown,rst,tsv}
The format of output (default: markdown)
-j, --json Shortcut for "-f json" (default: False)
-v, --verbose Print debug messages to stderr (default: False)
```
Get recent downloads:
```console
$ pypistats recent pillow
| last_day | last_month | last_week |
| --------: | ---------: | --------: |
| 1,083,451 | 30,750,398 | 7,088,038 |
```
Help for another subcommand:
```console
$ pypistats python_minor --help
usage: pypistats python_minor [-h] [-V VERSION]
[-f {html,json,markdown,rst,tsv}] [-j]
[-sd yyyy-mm[-dd]|name] [-ed yyyy-mm[-dd]|name]
[-m yyyy-mm|name] [-l] [-t] [-d] [--monthly]
[-v]
package
Retrieve the aggregate daily download time series by Python minor version
number
positional arguments:
package
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-V VERSION, --version VERSION
eg. 2.7 or 3.6 (default: None)
-f {html,json,markdown,rst,tsv}, --format {html,json,markdown,rst,tsv}
The format of output (default: markdown)
-j, --json Shortcut for "-f json" (default: False)
-sd yyyy-mm[-dd]|name, --start-date yyyy-mm[-dd]|name
Start date (default: None)
-ed yyyy-mm[-dd]|name, --end-date yyyy-mm[-dd]|name
End date (default: None)
-m yyyy-mm|name, --month yyyy-mm|name
Shortcut for -sd & -ed for a single month (default:
None)
-l, --last-month Shortcut for -sd & -ed for last month (default: False)
-t, --this-month Shortcut for -sd for this month (default: False)
-d, --daily Show daily downloads (default: False)
--monthly Show monthly downloads (default: False)
-v, --verbose Print debug messages to stderr (default: False)
```
Get version downloads:
```console
$ pypistats python_minor pillow --last-month
| category | percent | downloads |
| -------- | ------: | ---------: |
| 3.7 | 35.93% | 11,002,680 |
| 3.6 | 33.00% | 10,107,822 |
| 3.8 | 15.04% | 4,605,236 |
| 3.9 | 5.03% | 1,540,571 |
| 3.5 | 4.73% | 1,449,591 |

```
The table is Markdown, ready for pasting in GitHub issues and PRs:
| category | percent | downloads |
| -------- | ------: | ---------: |
| 3.7 | 35.93% | 11,002,680 |
| 3.6 | 33.00% | 10,107,822 |
| 3.8 | 15.04% | 4,605,236 |
| 3.9 | 5.03% | 1,540,571 |
| 3.5 | 4.73% | 1,449,591 |

These are equivalent (in May 2019):
```sh
pypistats python_major pip --last-month
pypistats python_major pip --month april
pypistats python_major pip --month apr
pypistats python_major pip --month 2019-04
```
And:
```sh
pypistats python_major pip --start-date december --end-date january
pypistats python_major pip --start-date dec --end-date jan
pypistats python_major pip --start-date 2018-12 --end-date 2019-01
```
## Example programmatic use
Return values are from the JSON responses documented in the API:
https://pypistats.org/api/
```python
import pypistats
from pprint import pprint
# Call the API
print(pypistats.recent("pillow"))
print(pypistats.recent("pillow", "day", format="markdown"))
print(pypistats.recent("pillow", "week", format="rst"))
print(pypistats.recent("pillow", "month", format="html"))
pprint(pypistats.recent("pillow", "week", format="json"))
print(pypistats.recent("pillow", "day"))
print(pypistats.overall("pillow"))
print(pypistats.overall("pillow", mirrors=True, format="markdown"))
print(pypistats.overall("pillow", mirrors=False, format="rst"))
print(pypistats.overall("pillow", mirrors=True, format="html"))
pprint(pypistats.overall("pillow", mirrors=False, format="json"))
print(pypistats.python_major("pillow"))
print(pypistats.python_major("pillow", version=2, format="markdown"))
print(pypistats.python_major("pillow", version=3, format="rst"))
print(pypistats.python_major("pillow", version="2", format="html"))
pprint(pypistats.python_major("pillow", version="3", format="json"))
print(pypistats.python_minor("pillow"))
print(pypistats.python_minor("pillow", version=2.7, format="markdown"))
print(pypistats.python_minor("pillow", version="2.7", format="rst"))
print(pypistats.python_minor("pillow", version=3.7, format="html"))
pprint(pypistats.python_minor("pillow", version="3.7", format="json"))
print(pypistats.system("pillow"))
print(pypistats.system("pillow", os="darwin", format="markdown"))
print(pypistats.system("pillow", os="linux", format="rst"))
print(pypistats.system("pillow", os="darwin", format="html"))
pprint(pypistats.system("pillow", os="linux", format="json"))
```
### NumPy and pandas
To use with either NumPy or pandas, make sure they are first installed, or:
```bash
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:
```python
import pypistats
numpy_array = pypistats.overall("pyvista", total=True, format="numpy")
print(type(numpy_array))
#
print(numpy_array)
# [['with_mirrors' '2019-09-20' '2.23%' 1204]
# ['without_mirrors' '2019-09-20' '2.08%' 1122]
# ['with_mirrors' '2019-09-19' '0.92%' 496]
# ...
# ['with_mirrors' '2019-10-26' '0.02%' 13]
# ['without_mirrors' '2019-10-26' '0.02%' 12]
# ['Total' None None 54041]]
```
Or in a pandas DataFrame:
```python
import pypistats
pandas_dataframe = pypistats.overall("pyvista", total=True, format="pandas")
print(type(pandas_dataframe))
#
print(pandas_dataframe)
# category date percent downloads
# 0 with_mirrors 2019-09-20 2.23% 1204
# 1 without_mirrors 2019-09-20 2.08% 1122
# 2 with_mirrors 2019-09-19 0.92% 496
# 3 with_mirrors 2019-08-22 0.90% 489
# 4 without_mirrors 2019-09-19 0.86% 466
# .. ... ... ... ...
# 354 without_mirrors 2019-11-03 0.03% 15
# 355 without_mirrors 2019-11-16 0.03% 15
# 356 with_mirrors 2019-10-26 0.02% 13
# 357 without_mirrors 2019-10-26 0.02% 12
# 358 Total None None 54041
#
# [359 rows x 4 columns]
```
For example, create charts with pandas:
```python
# Show overall downloads over time, excluding mirrors
import pypistats
data = pypistats.overall("pillow", total=True, format="pandas")
data = data.groupby("category").get_group("without_mirrors").sort_values("date")
chart = data.plot(x="date", y="downloads", figsize=(10, 2))
chart.figure.show()
chart.figure.savefig("overall.png") # alternatively
```

```python
# Show Python 3 downloads over time
import pypistats
data = pypistats.python_major("pillow", total=True, format="pandas")
data = data.groupby("category").get_group(3).sort_values("date")
chart = data.plot(x="date", y="downloads", figsize=(10, 2))
chart.figure.show()
chart.figure.savefig("python3.png") # alternatively
```
