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 ## Bluesky Analytics Suite An [Apify Actor](https://apify.com) that turns Bluesky public data into actionable analytics. Built on the open AT Protocol — no login or API key required. ### Features - **Profile analytics** — full profile metadata, follower/following counts, posting history. - **Post analytics** — engagement metrics (likes, reposts, replies, quotes), media detection, hashtags, mentions. - **Engagement insights** — engagement rate, median/P90 engagement, velocity score, posts-per-day, top hashtags, top mentions, engagement distribution. - **Follower tracking** — follower ratio, posts-per-follower, snapshot-based growth velocity across runs. - **Competitor benchmarking** — compare multiple handles with ranked overall scores. - **Search** — keyword/hashtag search with date, language, and min-likes filters. - **Social graph** — export followers and following lists with profile metadata. - **Thread extraction** — full conversation trees from any bsky.app URL. - **Rich exports** — JSON, CSV, Excel, and HTML reports. ### Modes | Mode | Description | |------|-------------| | `profile` | Fetch one or many profiles. | | `posts` | Fetch recent posts for a handle. | | `search` | Search posts by keyword/hashtag. | | `followers` | Export a handle's followers. | | `following` | Export accounts a handle follows. | | `thread` | Extract a post thread. | | `analytics` | Full analytics report for one or more handles. | ### Pricing - First **100 results free** per run. - **$0.003 per post or profile** scraped. ### Quick start #### Run on Apify 1. Open the actor on Apify Store: https://apify.com/frayess_mosbehi/bluesky-analytics-suite 2. Choose a mode and enter handles/queries. 3. Run the actor and download JSON/CSV/Excel/HTML results. #### Run locally ```bash npm install --legacy-peer-deps npm run build ## Create input file mkdir -p storage/key_value_stores/default cp examples/analytics.json storage/key_value_stores/default/INPUT.json ## Run APIFY_LOCAL_STORAGE_DIR=./storage node dist/main.js ```` Results are written to `storage/datasets/default/` and analytics reports to `storage/key_value_stores/default/`: - `REPORT.json` — full analytics report - `REPORT.csv` — benchmark table - `REPORT.xlsx` — Excel workbook - `REPORT.html` — HTML report (when `outputFormat: html`) ### Examples See the [`examples/`](./examples) directory for ready-to-use input configurations: - `profile.json` - `posts.json` - `search.json` - `followers.json` - `thread.json` - `analytics.json` ### Input schema | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `mode` | string | **Required.** One of `profile`, `posts`, `search`, `followers`, `following`, `thread`, `analytics`. | | `handles` | string\[] | Handles/DIDs for profile, posts, followers, following, analytics modes. | | `queries` | string\[] | Keywords/hashtags for search mode. | | `postUrl` | string | bsky.app URL or AT URI for thread mode. | | `maxResults` | integer | Max items per handle/query. Default `100`, max `10000`. | | `sort` | string | Search sort: `top` or `latest`. Default `latest`. | | `language` | string | ISO language filter for search. | | `minLikes` | integer | Minimum likes filter. | | `since` | string | Start date filter `YYYY-MM-DD`. | | `until` | string | End date filter `YYYY-MM-DD`. | | `includeReposts` | boolean | Include reposts in author feed. Default `false`. | | `includeAnalytics` | boolean | Compute analytics report. Default `true`. | | `outputFormat` | string | Analytics report format: `json` or `html`. Default `json`. | ### Development ```bash npm install --legacy-peer-deps npm run dev # run with Apify CLI npm run test # run Vitest tests npm run lint # run ESLint npm run format # run Prettier npm run build # compile TypeScript ``` ### Deploy to Apify #### Manual deploy ```bash npm run build apify login apify push ``` #### Automated deploy via GitHub Actions 1. Create an Apify API token in the [Apify Console](https://console.apify.com/account#/integrations). 2. Add it as a repository secret named `APIFY_TOKEN` in GitHub. 3. Publish a GitHub release — the actor will deploy automatically. ### Tech stack - Node.js 20 + TypeScript - Apify SDK + Crawlee - Direct AT Protocol XRPC calls - Zod for input validation - Vitest for testing ### FAQ **Do I need a Bluesky login or API key?**\ No. The actor reads only public data via Bluesky's public AT Protocol endpoints. **What data can I scrape?**\ Public profiles, posts, followers, following lists, search results, and threads. Private accounts and DMs are not accessible. **How is pricing calculated?**\ You pay **$0.003 per post or profile** returned, plus a **$0.00005** actor start fee. The first 100 results of every run are free. **What are the rate limits?**\ The actor uses polite exponential backoff and respects Bluesky's public rate limits. Very large lists may take longer to finish. **Can I schedule runs?**\ Yes. Use the Apify Scheduler to run the actor daily or weekly for follower tracking or mention monitoring. ### Comparison with raw Bluesky scrapers | Capability | Raw scraper | Bluesky Analytics Suite | |------------|-------------|-------------------------| | Public posts & profiles | ✅ | ✅ | | Engagement rate & velocity | ❌ | ✅ | | Follower growth tracking | ❌ | ✅ | | Multi-handle benchmarking | ❌ | ✅ | | CSV / Excel / HTML reports | Rarely | ✅ | | No login or API key | Varies | ✅ | ### Screenshots *Store screenshots will be added here: input UI, HTML report, Excel output, and CSV output.* ### Love this actor?
