google-play-scraper

Scrapes basic application data from the Google Play store.

Usage

The GooglePlay function takes the application id (the ?id= parameter on the application url) and an optional parameter to specify the language in which to fetch the app page (for example "es" for Spanish. Defaults to "en").

var GooglePlay = require("google-play-scrapper");

GooglePlay("com.dxco.pandavszombies")
  .then(function(app){
    console.log("Retrieved application: " + app.title);
  })
  .catch(function(e){
    console.log("There was an error fetching the application!");
  });

The returned app object has the following format:

{
  appId: "com.dxco.pandavszombies",
  title: "Panda vs Zombie: Elvis rage",
  url: "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dxco.pandavszombies&hl=en",
