python-gpapi2


An unofficial Python API that let you search, browse and download Android apps from Google Play Store.
Installation
pip install python-gpapi2

Usage

[!IMPORTANT]
Currently, this API is still in development. The API may change in the future.
Many features are not yet implemented at this time, I will continue to work on it.

from gpapi2 import GooglePlayAPI

gpapi = GooglePlayAPI(email="[email protected]")
# See README.md section "Obtaining the Google Play Store token" for more information
gpapi.login(aas_token="aas_et/AKpp...")

# Get the details of an app
# NOTE: The method currently returns a JSON string, you can use the
# `json.loads` to convert it to a Python dictionary. I will change it
# to return a user-friendly object in the future.
details = gpapi.details("com.whatsapp")

# Get the version of an app
version, version_code = gpapi.latest_version("com.whatsapp")

# Get the download link of an app
download_link = gpapi.download_url("com.whatsapp", version_code)

Obtaining the Google Play Store token

[!IMPORTANT]
Please ensure to protect the OAuth Token or AAS Token obtained below and
do not disclose it to anyone, as this could put your Google account at risk.

To use this API, you need to obtain a Google Play Store token. You can do this by
following these steps:


First, you need to obtain an OAuth token. You can do this by opening the
following URL in your browser:
https://accounts.google.com/embedded/setup/v2/android
And then:


Open the developer console in your browser (F12)


Log in with your Google account on the page that appears.


If the Google Terms of Services page appears, accept it. (It can hang up
but it's normal)


Go to the Application tab of the developer console.


Expand the Cookies section and select the https://accounts.google.com entry.


There should be a cookie named oauth_token. Copy its value. This is your
OAuth token. (It should look like oauth2_4/0AdL...)


This token can be used only once.




Then, you need to obtain an AAS token. Run the following code:
from gpapi2 import GooglePlayAPI

email = "[email protected]"
oauth_token = "oauth2_4/0AdL..."
aas_token = GooglePlayAPI.request_aas_token(email, oauth_token)
print(aas_token)

You should see a long string of characters. This is your AAS token.
It should looks like this: aas_et/AKpp...j25Q
