The Apify Alibaba Scraper is an efficient web crawling tool designed to scrape Alibaba, extracting product information, prices, and reviews. This crawler streamlines data collection by quickly crawling and scraping content, providing valuable insights for research and analysis.
To run the code examples, you need to have an Apify account. Replace <YOUR_API_TOKEN> in the code with your API token. For a more detailed explanation, please read about running Actors via the API in Apify Docs.
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';
// Initialize the ApifyClient with API token
const client = new ApifyClient({
token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});
// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
"startUrls": [
{
"url": "https://www.alibaba.com/trade/search?fsb=y&IndexArea=product_en&categoryId=201153401&keywords=Groom+Wear&knowledgeGraphId=100010232-10000166340&viewtype=L&&pricef=80&pricet"
}
],
"maxItems": 1
};
(async () => {
// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("lexis-solutions/alibaba-scraper").call(input);
// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
console.dir(item);
});
})();
