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 ### PlaywrightCrawler template This template is a production-ready boilerplate for developing an [Actor](https://apify.com/actors) with `PlaywrightCrawler`. Use this to bootstrap your projects using the most up-to-date code. > We decided to split Apify SDK into two libraries, Crawlee and Apify SDK v3. Crawlee will retain all the crawling and scraping-related tools and will always strive to be the best [web scraping](https://apify.com/web-scraping) library for its community. At the same time, Apify SDK will continue to exist, but keep only the Apify-specific features related to building Actors on the Apify platform. Read the upgrading guide to learn about the changes. ### Resources If you're looking for examples or want to learn more visit: - [Crawlee + Apify Platform guide](https://crawlee.dev/docs/guides/apify-platform) - [Documentation](https://crawlee.dev/api/playwright-crawler/class/PlaywrightCrawler) and [examples](https://crawlee.dev/docs/examples/playwright-crawler) - [Node.js tutorials](https://docs.apify.com/academy/node-js) in Academy - [Scraping single-page applications with Playwright](https://blog.apify.com/scraping-single-page-applications-with-playwright/) - [How to scale Puppeteer and Playwright](https://blog.apify.com/how-to-scale-puppeteer-and-playwright/) - [Integration with Zapier](https://apify.com/integrations), Make, GitHub, Google Drive and other apps - [Video guide on getting data using Apify API](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ViYYDHSBAKM) - A short guide on how to create Actors using code templates: [web scraper template](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-i-Korzf8w) ### Getting started For complete information [see this article](https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/development#build-actor-locally). To run the Actor use the following command: ```bash apify run ```` ### Deploy to Apify #### Connect Git repository to Apify If you've created a Git repository for the project, you can easily connect to Apify: 1. Go to [Actor creation page](https://console.apify.com/actors/new) 2. Click on **Link Git Repository** button #### Push project on your local machine to Apify You can also deploy the project on your local machine to Apify without the need for the Git repository. 1. Log in to Apify. You will need to provide your [Apify API Token](https://console.apify.com/account/integrations) to complete this action. ```bash apify login ``` 2. Deploy your Actor. This command will deploy and build the Actor on the Apify Platform. You can find your newly created Actor under [Actors -> My Actors](https://console.apify.com/actors?tab=my). ```bash apify push ``` ### Documentation reference To learn more about Apify and Actors, take a look at the following resources: - [Apify SDK for JavaScript documentation](https://docs.apify.com/sdk/js) - [Apify SDK for Python documentation](https://docs.apify.com/sdk/python) - [Apify Platform documentation](https://docs.apify.com/platform) - [Join our developer community on Discord](https://discord.com/invite/jyEM2PRvMU) # Actor input Schema ## `startUrls` (type: `array`): URLs to start with. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Specifies proxy servers that will be used by the scraper in order to hide its origin. ## Actor input object example ```json { "startUrls": [ { "url": "https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/320545753" } ], "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } } ``` # 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 = { "startUrls": [ { "url": "https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/320545753" } ], "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("getdataforme/tesco-reviews-scraper").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 📖?
