Frequently asked questions
How are results ordered?
Crates are returned by download count so the most used ones come first.
Which fields are numeric?
Downloads, recent downloads and version count are parsed as numbers so you can sort and filter directly.
Can I collect more than one page?
Yes. Set Max Items higher and the scraper pages through the results for you.
How fresh is the data?
Download counts and versions are read live at run time, so each record reflects the moment of the run (see observedAt).
