npm package-download trends API

npm download interest via the Trends API. Normalized 0-100 history and growth for exact package names.

License: MIT PyPI Python

Key: trendsapi.ai/#get-key. HTTP contract and every source: trendsapi-ai/trendsapi.

Authentication

pip install trendsapi-npm
export TRENDSAPI_KEY=your_key

Python 3.9+. Same key as the HTTP API.

from trendsapi_npm import TrendsAPI

client = TrendsAPI()                    # TRENDSAPI_KEY
# client = TrendsAPI(api_key="YOUR_KEY")

Keyword helpers default to source: "npm". Pass source= to hit any other platform with the same client. Official full client (every source, no preset): trendsapi.

Methods

MethodREST modeReturns
get_time_series(keyword, source=, data_mode=)get_time_serieslist[TrendsDataPoint]
get_growth(keyword, percent_growth=, source=, data_mode=)get_growthGetGrowthResponse
get_top_trends(type=, ...)get_top_trendsGetTopTrendsResponse

source is lowercase (npm). type is exact (Google Trends). Mixing them is a 400.

from trendsapi_npm import TrendsAPI

client = TrendsAPI()                    # TRENDSAPI_KEY
# client = TrendsAPI(api_key="YOUR_KEY")

series = client.get_time_series("vite")
print(series[-1].date, series[-1].value)

growth = client.get_growth("vite", percent_growth=["3M", "12M"])
print(growth.results[0].growth, growth.results[0].direction)

get_time_series

points = client.get_time_series("vite")

Each point:

FieldAlwaysMeaning
dateyesYYYY-MM-DD
valueyes0-100 index for this series
keywordyesEcho
volumenoAbsolute volume when available
source or datatypenoPipeline label

Python returns list[TrendsDataPoint]. Use .date and .value, not ["date"]. JS returns the same fields as object properties.

get_growth

g = client.get_growth("vite", percent_growth=["12M", "3M", "YTD"])
print(g.results[0].growth, g.results[0].direction)

percent_growth default: ["12M"]. Presets: 7D 14D 30D 1M 2M 3M 6M 9M 12M/1Y 18M 24M/2Y 36M/3Y 48M 60M/5Y MTD QTD YTD. Custom: {"name": "Launch", "recent": "2024-06-01", "baseline": "2024-01-01"}.

FieldMeaning
search_termKeyword
data_sourceSource
resultsOne object per window (period, growth, direction, dates, values)
metadataCounts / success flag

Several windows still count as one request. Python: growth.results[0].growth. JS: growth.results[0].growth.

Async

import asyncio
from trendsapi_npm import AsyncTrendsAPI

async def main():
    c = AsyncTrendsAPI()
    return await asyncio.gather(
        c.get_time_series("vite"),
        c.get_time_series("vite", source="google search"),
    )

asyncio.run(main())

Each 200 is one billed request.

Pandas

from dataclasses import asdict
import pandas as pd
from trendsapi_npm import TrendsAPI

df = pd.DataFrame(asdict(p) for p in TrendsAPI().get_time_series("vite"))
df["date"] = pd.to_datetime(df["date"])
print(df.set_index("date")["value"].resample("ME").mean().tail())

  • One package per request.
