## What's an Apify Actor?

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/docs.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.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/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

## LEGO Catalogue Scraper (Rebrickable)

Pull structured **LEGO** catalogue data — sets, part inventories and minifigs — via the
Rebrickable API. Search sets by keyword, theme or year, or look up specific set numbers, and
get clean structured data in bulk.

> **Bring your own key.** This actor uses the official Rebrickable API, which needs a **free
> API key** (rebrickable.com → Account → Settings → API). You enter your key in the input;
> it's stored as a secret.

### Who it's for

- **Collectors & AFOLs** — export set and part data for inventory and wishlists.
- **MOC builders** — pull full part lists for sets you're parting out or rebuilding.
- **Resellers** — bulk set/part data for listings and part-out planning.
- **Apps & pipelines** — structured LEGO catalogue data with no API plumbing.

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `apiKey` | string (secret) | — (required) | Your free Rebrickable API key |
| `searchTerms` | array | — | Keywords to search sets (e.g. `millennium falcon`) |
| `setNumbers` | array | — | Specific set numbers (`10341`, `75192-1`) |
| `themeId` | integer | — | Optional theme filter |
| `minYear` / `maxYear` | integer | — | Optional release-year range |
| `includeParts` | boolean | `false` | Embed the full part inventory per set |
| `includeMinifigs` | boolean | `false` | Embed the minifigs per set |
| `maxSetsPerSearch` | integer | `50` | Sets returned per search term |
| `maxParts` | integer | `1000` | Cap on parts per set |

Provide at least one of `searchTerms` or `setNumbers`.

### Output

One row per set:

```json
{
  "setNum": "10341-1",
  "name": "NASA Artemis Space Launch System",
  "year": 2024,
  "themeId": 171,
  "numParts": 3601,
  "image": "https://cdn.rebrickable.com/media/sets/10341-1/…",
  "url": "https://rebrickable.com/sets/10341-1/…",
  "parts": [
    { "partNum": "3001", "name": "Brick 2 x 4", "color": "White", "quantity": 6, "image": "…" }
  ],
  "minifigs": [ { "figNum": "fig-…", "name": "…", "quantity": 1 } ]
}
````

`parts` / `minifigs` are present only when their options are enabled.

### Notes & limits

- Data is the Rebrickable **catalogue** (sets, parts, minifigs). It does **not** include retail
  or secondary-market prices — those aren't available from a clean public API.
- Rebrickable enforces per-key rate limits; large part-inventory pulls are paginated.
- Public catalogue data used under Rebrickable's API terms; you are responsible for compliant
  use of your key and the output.

# 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 '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "searchTerms": [
        "millennium falcon"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("ponderable_hydrometer/lego-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);
});
