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 ## Blokker Store Locator Scraper Scrape all Blokker store locations in the Netherlands. This is a store locator, not a product scraper -- it returns addresses, GPS coordinates, and opening hours for Blokker's physical retail locations. ### Input | Field | Type | Required | Description | |-------|------|----------|-------------| | `maxResults` | Integer | No | Store limit (default: all stores, set 0 for unlimited) | | `includeOpeningHours` | Boolean | No | Visit each store's detail page for opening hours (default: true). Disabling this makes it faster. | | `proxyConfiguration` | Object | No | Proxy settings | ### Output | Field | Type | Example | |-------|------|---------| | `name` | String | `"Blokker Amsterdam Kinkerstraat"` | | `address` | String | `"Kinkerstraat 123"` | | `zipCode` | String | `"1053 DS"` | | `city` | String | `"Amsterdam"` | | `country` | String | `"NL"` | | `latitude` | Number | `52.3676` | | `longitude` | Number | `4.8686` | | `openingHours` | Array | `[{"day": "Monday", "hours": "09:00-21:00"}, ...]` | | `url` | String | Store detail page URL | ```json { "name": "Blokker Amsterdam Kinkerstraat", "address": "Kinkerstraat 123", "zipCode": "1053 DS", "city": "Amsterdam", "country": "NL", "latitude": 52.3676, "longitude": 4.8686, "openingHours": [ {"day": "Monday", "hours": "09:00-21:00"}, {"day": "Tuesday", "hours": "09:00-21:00"}, {"day": "Saturday", "hours": "09:00-18:00"}, {"day": "Sunday", "hours": "12:00-18:00"} ], "url": "https://www.blokker.nl/nl/vind-een-winkel/amsterdam-kinkerstraat", "scrapedAt": "2026-03-15T10:00:00.000Z" } ```` ### How it works 1. Fetches the Blokker store locator page at `/nl/vind-een-winkel/` 2. Extracts store data (name, address, coordinates) from the page 3. Optionally visits each store's detail page to parse opening hours 4. Dutch day abbreviations (Ma, Di, Wo, Do, Vr, Za, Zo) are translated to English ### Cost Very lightweight -- just one listing page plus optional detail pages. **Under $0.05 for all stores.** ### Notes - Blokker is a Dutch-only chain (Netherlands) - Opening hours are returned as day/hours pairs with English day names - Disabling `includeOpeningHours` skips all detail page visits, making the run much faster # Actor input Schema ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of stores to scrape. Set to 0 or leave empty for all stores. ## `includeOpeningHours` (type: `boolean`): Visit each store's detail page to scrape opening hours. Disabling this makes the scraper faster (1 request vs 57+). ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Proxy settings for the scraper. Recommended for production runs. ## Actor input object example ```json { "maxResults": 0, "includeOpeningHours": true } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "maxResults": 0 }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("studio-amba/blokker-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
