panic(errors[0])
}
for _, app := range query.Results {

}
}Returns a list of clusters for the specified application category.

}
}Retrieve a list of applications from one of the collections at Google Play.
package main

})
err := c.Run()
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
for _, app := range c.Results {
fmt.Println(app.Title, app.Price, app.URL)
}
}Returns the list of applications by the given developer name or ID
package main
import (

)
func main() {

if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
for _, app := range dev.Results {

}
}Retrieves a page of reviews for a specific application.
Note that this method returns reviews in a specific language (english by default), so you need to try different languages to get more reviews. Also, the counter displayed in the Google Play page refers to the total number of 1-5 stars ratings the application has, not the written reviews count. So if the app has 100k ratings, don't expect to get 100k reviews by using this method.
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/n0madic/google-play-scraper/pkg/reviews"
)
func main() {
r := reviews.New("com.activision.callofduty.shooter", reviews.Options{
Number: 100,
})
err := r.Run()
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
for _, review := range r.Results {
fmt.Println(review.Score, review.Text)
}
}Returns a list of similar apps to the one specified.
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/n0madic/google-play-scraper/pkg/similar"
)
func main() {
sim := similar.New("com.android.chrome", similar.Options{
Number: 100,
})
err := sim.Run()
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
for _, app := range sim.Results {
fmt.Println(app.Title, app.URL)
}
}Given a string returns up to five suggestion to complete a search query term.
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/n0madic/google-play-scraper/pkg/suggest"
)
func main() {
sug, err := suggest.Get("chrome", suggest.Options{
Country: "us",
Language: "us",
})
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
for _, s := range sug {
fmt.Println(s)
}
}
