Google Play Store Python API

This project is fork of playstoreapi. It contains an unofficial API for google play interactions.

The code was updated with the following changes:

• add config files for token & gsfid instead of env vars (env vars still supported though)
• Updated with latest googleplay proto format
• better download support for split files
• fixes for latest urllib3 library
• update fdfe base url

P.S.: There's still a lot of things I want to fix & update in it, but for now it's good enough and working and I don't have enough time to spend on it very much.

Setup

Install playstoreapi using pip:

$ pip install -U git+https://github.com/ABhiTheModder/playstoreapi

Usage

Check scripts in test and examples directory for more examples on how to use this API.

from playstoreapi.googleplay import GooglePlayAPI

mail = 'mymail@google.com'
passwd = 'mypasswd'

api = GooglePlayAPI('en_GB', 'Europe/London')
api.login(email=mail, password=passwd)
print(f'authSubToken: {api.authSubToken} gsfId: {api.gsfId}')

result = api.search('firefox')
for doc in result:
    if 'id' in doc:
        print('doc: {}'.format(doc['id']))
    for cluster in doc['subItem']:
        print('\tcluster: {}'.format(cluster['id']))
        for app in cluster['subItem']:
            print('\t\tapp: {}'.format(app['id']))

For first time logins, you should only provide email and password. The module will take care of initalizing the api, upload device information to the google account you supplied, and retrieving a Google Service Framework ID (which, from now on, will be the android ID of your fake device).

For the next logins you should save the gsfId and the authSubToken, and provide them as parameters to the login function or set them as environement variables. If you login again with email and password, this is the equivalent of re-initalizing your android device with a google account, invalidating previous gsfId and authSubToken.
