I've been trying to find an API to query repositories on BitBucket based on language they're written in. Few years ago I've been using 

https://bitbucket.org/repo/all/relevance?language=X

But right now the link is dead.

There is a new API under

https://bitbucket.org/api/2.0/repositories

But theres no documentation on any query parameters.

Is there any way to browse public repos?

    No, at this moment there is no way to browse repositories on Bitbucket without using the search function. You might want to vote/watch issue [#2934](https://bitbucket.org/site/master/issues/2934/browse-search-repositories-by-language). – Alexandru Guzinschi Jul 26 '15 at 19:16

No, at this moment there is no way to browse repositories on Bitbucket without using the search function. There is a proposal to add such a feature, expressed in issue #2934, which you might want to vote/watch.

On the API side, you can browse all public repositories using the endpoint https://bitbucket.org/api/2.0/repositories/, but you can't search and/or filter results.

Not sure when the API changed, but you can now do this by using the following syntax

https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/USER_NAME?q=language=%22LANGUAGE%22

%22 is the decoded version of "

For a bit more information on filtering the request, refer to:

https://developer.atlassian.com/bitbucket/api/2/reference/meta/filtering#supp-endpoints

You can click on this link for a working example:

https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/craigiswayne?q=language=%22shell%22

Should only bring back my public repositories that are set with shell language
