One of the most crucial JavaScript communities is at your fingertips. Extract all the package information right away from NPM. Title, maintainers, readme, downloads per version, dependent libraries, and many other information can be retrieved directly! No limits! Get JSON, Excel, XML, and more!
You can access the NPM Scraper programmatically from your own JavaScript applications by using the Apify API. You can also choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.
1import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

3// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
4// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
5const client = new ApifyClient({
6 token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
7});

20 "customMapFunction": (object) => { return {...object} },
21 "proxy": {
22 "useApifyProxy": true
23 }
24};

26// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
27const run = await client.actor("epctex/npm-scraper").call(input);
28
29// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
30console.log('Results from dataset');
31console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
32const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
33items.forEach((item) => {
