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 ## JetBrains Plugins Scraper Extract comprehensive plugin data from JetBrains Marketplace including IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm, PhpStorm, Rider, GoLand, RubyMine, and CLion plugins. Get detailed metadata, ratings, download counts, compatibility information, and pricing data for market research, competitive analysis, and plugin discovery. ### Features - **Multi-IDE Coverage**: Supports all JetBrains IDEs (IntelliJ, PyCharm, WebStorm, PhpStorm, Rider, GoLand, RubyMine, CLion) - **Flexible Search**: Search by keyword or extract specific plugins by ID - **Comprehensive Metadata**: Name, description, version, vendor, license, pricing model - **Performance Metrics**: Download counts, ratings, review counts - **Compatibility Data**: Supported IDE versions and build ranges - **Categorization**: Tags and categories for organization - **Update Tracking**: Publish date, last update, and changelog notes - **PPE Pricing**: Pay only for what you extract with spending limit protection - **Rate Limiting**: Configurable delays to respect API limits - **Error Handling**: Robust retry logic with graceful degradation ### Use Cases #### Plugin Market Research Analyze the JetBrains plugin ecosystem to identify trending plugins, popular categories, and market gaps. Track download counts and ratings to understand user preferences across different IDEs. #### Competitive Analysis Monitor competitor plugins in your niche. Compare ratings, feature sets, pricing models, and update frequency to position your own plugin effectively in the marketplace. #### Plugin Discovery for Teams Find the best plugins for your development team. Search by category, compare ratings, and verify compatibility with your specific IDE versions before installation. #### License Compliance Auditing Extract license information for all installed plugins to ensure compliance with company policies. Identify paid vs free plugins and track commercial dependencies. ### Input Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description | |-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------| | `searchQuery` | string | No | - | Search plugins by keyword (e.g., "docker", "kubernetes", "theme") | | `pluginIds` | string[] | No | - | List of specific plugin IDs to extract | | `maxPlugins` | integer | No | 50 | Maximum number of plugins to extract (1-1000) | | `sortBy` | string | No | "downloads" | Sort results by: downloads, rating, name, updated | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | No | {useApifyProxy: false} | Proxy settings (not required for JetBrains API) | | `delayMs` | integer | No | 500 | Delay between requests in milliseconds | ### Output Example ```json { "id": "7724", "name": "Docker", "description": "Provides integration with Docker...", "vendor": { "name": "JetBrains", "url": "https://www.jetbrains.com" }, "version": "232.8660.185", "downloads": 12500000, "rating": 4.5, "reviewCount": 342, "pricing": "Free", "license": "Apache 2.0", "categories": ["Tools Integration"], "tags": ["docker", "containers", "devops"], "compatibleWith": ["IntelliJ IDEA", "PyCharm", "WebStorm"], "sinceBuild": "232.0", "untilBuild": "232.*", "size": "15.2 MB", "url": "https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/7724", "updateDate": "2024-01-15", "publishDate": "2015-06-15", "changeNotes": "Added support for Docker Compose...", "extractedAt": "2026-04-01T10:00:00.000Z" } ```` ### Pricing This Actor uses Pay-Per-Event (PPE) pricing: | Event | Price | |-------|-------| | Plugin extracted | $0.002 per plugin | **Example costs:** - 100 plugins = $0.20 - 500 plugins = $1.00 - 1000 plugins = $2.00 No subscription required.
