Request for adding more metadata

[juliankrz]

Hi, I love this script.

I have a request for adding some additional metadata to the output to help with some data aggregation I'd like to do.

1. Could we have full application name as some Instagram apps are marked as "alpha": https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/instagram/instagram-instagram/instagram-instagram-37-0-0-0-67-96271-release/

You already include "Beta" string for Snapchat which is great, could you have this for other apps too? https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/snap-inc/snapchat/snapchat-10-27-5-0-beta-release/

2. Some apk versions have different flavors such as "arm ..." - could we also add this as an additional field "flavor": https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/instagram/instagram-instagram/instagram-instagram-35-0-0-20-96-95414-release/instagram-35-0-0-20-96-2-android-apk-download/

Same for Facebook - they have "alpha" and "beta" and flavors: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/facebook-2/facebook/facebook-164-0-0-9-95-release/facebook-164-0-0-9-95-android-apk-download/

Thanks!

This feature is almost done. But it's easy to cause HTTP 429 error. Because of we access two page for every single variant, maybe it's too much.

I found some proxy solutions to avoid 429 issue: https://github.com/aivarsk/scrapy-proxies https://github.com/fabienvauchelles/scrapoxy
