Metadata Extractor
No credit card required
A small efficient actor that loads a web page, parses its HTML using Cheerio library and extracts the following meta-data from the <HEAD> tag, such as page title, description, author etc.
You can access the Metadata Extractor 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';
2
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});
8
9// Prepare Actor input
10const input = {
11 "urls": [
12 "https://www.apify.com/",
13 "https://blog.apify.com"
14 ],
15 "proxy": {
16 "useApifyProxy": true
17 }
18};
19
20// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
21const run = await client.actor("jancurn/extract-metadata").call(input);
22
23// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
24console.log('Results from dataset');
25console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
26const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
27items.forEach((item) => {
28 console.dir(item);
29});
