The Bandcamp.com crawler is a web scraping tool that allows you to extract data from the Bandcamp music platform. With this crawler, you can get information about albums, tracks, and much more. The crawler is built on top of Apify SDK, and you can run it both on the Apify platform and locally.
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://fivefingerdeathpunch.bandcamp.com/music"
}
],
"maxPagesToSearch": 6,
"proxy": {
"useApifyProxy": false
}
};
(async () => {
// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("service-paradis/bandcamp-crawler").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);
});
})();
