JAASo I guess someone mentioned snscrape somewhere popular, although I have no idea who, when, where. Downloads from PyPI have exploded to over half a million in the past week (of 755k in the past month), and it's now in the top 1% of all packages. As long as the number of silly issues stays down...
-
JAApypistats.org/packages/snscrape ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
-
arkiverJAA: is it added as a dependency in some major package?
-
arkivercongrats :)
-
JAAarkiver: Nope, or at least I haven't found anything like that.
-
arkiverinteresting 3.10 is the most downloaded one, and not 3.12
-
JAAAnd those statistics are so heavily biased towards Python 3.10 on Linux that I now think someone's just running something crazy.
-
JAAWell, 3.12 isn't out yet, so that makes sense.
-
arkiveri'm going to guess added as dependency somewhere
-
arkiverversion 3.10
-
JAANeither GitHub nor Libraries.io (which has all the PyPI information) shows any significant dependents, so it doesn't seem likely.
-
JAAI suspect that someone's running some huge scrape in a highly parallelised fashion on a large fleet of small cloud servers or similar.
-
» pabs would have thought that would result in just one download?
-
JAAI mean, depends on how you do it. If you're competent, yes. If you just write code that does `pip install snscrape && snscrape ...` and then deploy that to thousands of servers though...
