SteamSpy API on PyPI
Project description
SteamSpyPI: an API for SteamSpy
This repository contains Python code to download data through SteamSpy API.
Installation
The code is packaged for PyPI, so that the installation consists in running:
pip install steamspypi
Usage
Returns details for 1000 games. Data is sorted by decreasing number of owners.
A page
parameter is now required for all
requests, starting at page=0
.
You will be able to retrieve 1000 games per all
request.
Moreover, the API rate is now heavily limited for all
requests.
You will be able to issue 1 all
request per minute.
import steamspypi
data_request = dict()
data_request['request'] = 'all'
data_request['page'] = '0'
data = steamspypi.download(data_request)
Returns details for 1000 games. This time, data is cached locally for offline reuse.
In this case, page
is forcibly set to 0
, without any access to this parameter for the end-user.
Local cache is in data/%Y%m%d_steamspy.json
, without mentioning page
in the file name for backward compatibility.
import steamspypi
data = steamspypi.load()
Returns details for all of the games.
Please refer to this for-loop to accomodate recent API rate-limits.
Alternatively, if you know the exact number of pages, e.g. 44 as of March 29, 2021:
import steamspypi
data = steamspypi.download_all_pages(num_pages=44)
Returns details for a given application.
import steamspypi
data_request = dict()
data_request['request'] = 'appdetails'
data_request['appid'] = '730'
data = steamspypi.download(data_request)
Returns all games in a given genre.
import steamspypi
data_request = dict()
data_request['request'] = 'genre'
data_request['genre'] = 'Early Access'
data = steamspypi.download(data_request)
Returns all games with a given tag.
import steamspypi
data_request = dict()
data_request['request'] = 'tag'
data_request['tag'] = 'Early Access'
data = steamspypi.download(data_request)
Returns Top 100 games, with respect to the number of players in the last two weeks.
import steamspypi
data_request = dict()
data_request['request'] = 'top100in2weeks'
data = steamspypi.download(data_request)
Returns Top 100 games, with respect to the number of players since March 2009.
import steamspypi
data_request = dict()
data_request['request'] = 'top100forever'
data = steamspypi.download(data_request)
Returns Top 100 games, with respect to the estimated number of owners.
import steamspypi
data_request = dict()
data_request['request'] = 'top100owned'
data = steamspypi.download(data_request)
