Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Chemist Warehouse AU Product Search (Unofficial) Search products from Chemist Warehouse Australia and return normalized product records in the default dataset. This is an unofficial actor and is not affiliated with Chemist Warehouse. This actor is designed for simple product discovery use cases such as: - keyword search by product name - lightweight catalog checks - downstream price comparison pipelines ### What this actor does The actor currently supports one operation: - `search` For each matching product, the dataset returns a normalized record with fields such as: - `name` - `brand` - `sku` - `source_url` - `price` - `description` - `images` - `source` The run summary is stored in the default key-value store under the `OUTPUT` key. ### Operation guide The Apify Console form shows the union of all supported fields, but this actor currently supports only one operation. - `search` Required: `query` Optional: `page`, `includeRaw` ### Input #### Search example ```json { "operation": "search", "query": "panadol", "page": 0, "includeRaw": false } ```` #### Another example ```json { "operation": "search", "query": "vitamin c", "page": 0, "includeRaw": false } ``` ### Output - Dataset: normalized product rows - Key-value store `OUTPUT`: run summary with `source`, `operation`, `success`, `total`, `errors`, `proxy`, and `monetization` ### Notes - `page` is zero-based. - This actor is focused on search only in the current release. - The actor is intended to run as a standalone Apify source and does not depend on the existing RapidAPI deployment. - Default proxy strategy is `direct` with no custom proxies. - The runtime is prepared for future pay-per-event monetization without changing the actor structure again. # Actor input Schema ## `operation` (type: `string`): Actor operation to execute. This actor currently supports only `search`. ## `query` (type: `string`): Required for `search`. Search phrase. ## `page` (type: `integer`): Optional for `search`. Zero-based search results page. ## `includeRaw` (type: `boolean`): Optional for `search`. Include the unnormalized source payload in the OUTPUT summary. ## Actor input object example ```json { "operation": "search", "query": "panadol", "page": 0, "includeRaw": false } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): Normalized dataset items returned by the actor. ## `summary` (type: `string`): Run summary JSON stored under the OUTPUT key. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = {}; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("dromb/apify-wave1-actors").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
