Can we get whole list of a certain system? #23

Thanks for the great work.

I am a Ph.D student from China and focus on software data analysis. We are very interested in analysis from global network with collaboration or dependency relationships.

So deps.dev surely provides a very good data source, so I am curious that is there an interface to get a whole list of a certain system like maven? Just like https://pypi.org/simple/ for PyPI, https://skimdb.npmjs.com/registry/_all_docs for npm and https://packagist.org/packages/list.json for Composer.

It will be great help to get the list and we will be carefully design the program to avoid redundant API calls for history data.

Hi! This isn't currently supported by the API, but you can use our BigQuery dataset, which is better suited for large-scale analysis tasks.
