It has two run modes. 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. Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md. ## 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. Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run. For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below. Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`). # README ## 💫 Welcome To ProductHunt Scraper ![dont be sad readme is here](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JupriGH/resources/main/cats/catframe.png) ### ☘️ About ProductHunt.com **Product Hunt** is an American website to share and discover new [products](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_\(business\) "Product (business)"). It was founded by Ryan Hoover in November 2013. Users submit products, which are listed in a linear format by day. The site includes a comments system and a voting system similar to [Hacker News](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker_News "Hacker News") or [Reddit](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reddit "Reddit"). The products with the most votes rise to the top of each day's list. Products are organized into four categories; technology products ([web apps](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_apps "Web apps"), [mobile apps](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_app "Mobile app"), [hardware](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_hardware "Electronic hardware") products, etc.), [games](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Games "Games") (PC, web, mobile apps), [books](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Books "Books") and [podcasts](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Podcasts "Podcasts"). A submission simply requires a product title, URL, and tagline. As of 2016, according to Hoover, the website has led to the discovery of over 100 million products across 50,000 companies.[\[1\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_Hunt#cite_note-:1-1) The site also includes a daily email list that sends out yesterday's top tech "hunts" (products) as well as a featured collection. A version of the digest is also available for games and books. Product Hunt is also available as an [iOS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IOS "IOS") app, [macOS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacOS "MacOS") app, an [Android](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_\(operating_system\) "Android (operating system)") app, and [Google Chrome](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Chrome "Google Chrome") extension. The company's headquarters is in [San Francisco](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Francisco "San Francisco").[\[2\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_Hunt#cite_note-:0-2) The site received funding from [Y Combinator](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y_Combinator_\(company\) "Y Combinator (company)"). ### ☘️ About This Actor #### All in One ProductHunt.com Scraper #### Disclaimer : - 🔒 *Free trial limited to **5** query per request* - 🔒 *Free trial limited to **100** results* ### ☘️ Tutorial #### 🍃 Parameters | Name | Type | Description | |-|-|-| | `query` | **array** | List of `KEYWORD`, `URL` or `QUERY` | | `limit` | **number** | Maximum number of results *(per-QUERY)* | | `filters` | **object** | Filters and Settings | #### 🍃 Basic Usage **Searching for products** ```yaml { "query": ["apify"], "limit": 10 } ``` **Searching for users** ```yaml { "query": ["users:John"], "limit": 10 } ``` **Fetch a product info** ```yaml { "query": ["https://www.producthunt.com/products/apify"] } ``` OR ```yaml { "query": ["product:apify"] } ``` **Scrape product reviews** ```yaml { "query": ["https://www.producthunt.com/products/apify/reviews"], "limit": 100 } ``` OR ```yaml { "query": ["product:apify/reviews"], "limit": 100 } ``` **Scrape a user info** ```yaml { "query": ["https://www.producthunt.com/@elonmusk"] } ``` OR ```yaml { "query": ["@elonmusk", "@billgates", "@otheruser"] } ``` **Scrape user comments** ```yaml { "query": ["@elonmusk/comments"], "limit": 100 } ``` #### 🍃 Advanced Usage ##### PRODUCTHUNT Query Language (`PHQL`) ```html [ | # | @ ] [ | | | ] [ /

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 = { "query": [ "Apify" ], "limit": 5 }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("jupri/producthunt").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 📖?

Go to → https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs/quick-start ``` ## CLI example ```bash echo '{ "query": [ "Apify" ], "limit": 5 }' | apify call jupri/producthunt --silent --output-dataset ``` ## MCP server setup ```json { "mcpServers": { "apify": { "type": "http", "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,jupri/producthunt" } } } ``` The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer ` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations). ## OpenAPI specification Download the OpenAPI definition: https://api.apify.com/v2/actors/EwsksvGn8wRxT2Nry/builds/Q9BglGU3Iy1J5Jauz/openapi.json
