API to query Juliahub package info?

I was wondering if there is a way to programmatically access juliahub packages (not the computation platform). I want to query package names, stars, install stats, etc.

I couldn’t find anything relevant in the docs for juliahub nor juliahub.jl

After some years of getting the package server architecture in place and working (mostly) reliably, @staticfloat and I finally had some time to work on collecting logs into a data warehouse (we’re using Snowflake) and designing a set of queries over the logs that we can run and publish regularly. The current public aggregated stats are available with the prefix https://julialang-logs.s3.amazonaws.com/public_outputs/current/ followed by a rollup name and the suffix .csv.gz indicating that all t…

That doesn’t include GitHub stargazer counts, however. I don’t believe we have a public API for our cache of it, but GitHub does:

oh, thanks. I couldn’t find that post with discourse search.

EDIT: sorry @mbauman, how about things like dependencies, repo url etc.
Does JuliaHub parse these from here directly (GitHub - JuliaRegistries/General: The official registry of general Julia packages)?
and compute other things like “dependants”, or the readme itself?

I assume JuliaHub-packages is not open source?
