JSON API for scripting

The API is hosted at https://api.tresbien.tech (not on this domain). Two GET endpoints, both return JSON. Important: query terms are regex: escape . ( ) \ with a backslash (e.g. .once( → \.once\().

Step 1: Search code

curl 'https://api.tresbien.tech/v1/search/code?q=\.once\(&num=200'

Returns Result.Files[], each with .Repository (module name) and .ChunkMatches[] (base64 content + match positions). Use num to control max file results.

Step 2: Get repository metadata

curl 'https://api.tresbien.tech/v1/search/repo'

Returns List.Repos[] (all repositories). Each entry has .Repository.Name and .Repository.RawConfig with:

priority: total active installs (string, use for ranking)
drupal-core: core compatibility per branch (branch:constraint pairs, ;-separated)
drupal-usage: installs per branch (branch:count pairs, ;-separated)
drupal-security: "covered" if covered by Drupal Security Team

Example: find 5 most installed modules using `.once(`

Search: curl 'https://api.tresbien.tech/v1/search/code?q=\.once\(&num=500'
Collect unique Repository names from Result.Files[]
Fetch: curl 'https://api.tresbien.tech/v1/search/repo' (full list, no parameters)
For each repo from step 2, look up its RawConfig.priority in the repo list
Sort by priority descending, take top 5
