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 ## Dreamland Scraper Scrape product data, prices, ratings, and stock info from [Dreamland.be](https://www.dreamland.be) — Belgium's leading toys, games, and entertainment retailer (part of the Colruyt Group). No cookies or login required. ### Why use this actor? Dreamland is Belgium's go-to store for toys, gaming, school supplies, and kids' entertainment. If you're tracking toy prices, monitoring LEGO availability, comparing brands like Playmobil or Vtech, or building a product feed for a Belgian e-commerce aggregator, this actor gives you structured data straight from the source — no browser automation needed. ### Features - **Three scraping modes** — search by brand/keyword, browse by category, or scrape the full product catalog via sitemap - **Bilingual** — supports both Dutch (`nl`) and French (`fr`) versions of the site - **Rich product data** — names, prices, EANs, SKUs, ratings (normalized to 0-5), stock status, images, and descriptions - **Fast and efficient** — uses Cheerio (no headless browser), parses JSON-LD structured data embedded in every product page - **No cookies, no login required** — works out of the box with zero configuration ### Input | Field | Type | Required | Description | |-------|------|----------|-------------| | `searchQuery` | String | No | Brand or keyword (e.g. `"lego"`, `"playmobil"`) | | `categoryUrl` | String | No | Category slug or full URL (e.g. `https://www.dreamland.be/nl/c/speelgoed/producten`) | | `maxResults` | Integer | No | Maximum products to return (default: 100) | | `language` | String | No | `nl` (default) or `fr` | | `proxyConfiguration` | Object | No | Proxy settings (recommended for large runs) | Without input, the scraper fetches the full product sitemap for maximum coverage. ### Output Each result contains: | Field | Type | Example | |-------|------|---------| | `name` | String | `"LEGO City Politiebureau 60316"` | | `brand` | String | `"LEGO"` | | `price` | Number | `69.99` | | `currency` | String | `"EUR"` | | `ean` | String | `"5702017161921"` | | `sku` | String | `"60316"` | | `productId` | String | `"8843521"` | | `inStock` | Boolean | `true` | | `rating` | Number | `4.5` | | `reviewCount` | Number | `28` | | `url` | String | Full product URL | | `imageUrl` | String | Primary product image URL | | `description` | String | Product description | | `category` | String | `"Speelgoed"` | | `language` | String | `"nl"` | ### Example output ```json { "name": "LEGO City Politiebureau 60316", "brand": "LEGO", "price": 69.99, "currency": "EUR", "ean": "5702017161921", "sku": "60316", "productId": "8843521", "inStock": true, "rating": 4.5, "reviewCount": 28, "url": "https://www.dreamland.be/nl/producten/lego-city-politiebureau/8843521", "imageUrl": "https://www.dreamland.be/media/catalog/product/8843521.jpg", "description": "Bouw je eigen LEGO City politiebureau met helikopter, politiewagen en 6 minifiguren.", "category": "Speelgoed", "language": "nl", "scrapedAt": "2026-04-06T10:00:00.000Z" } ```` ### Cost estimate This actor uses approximately **1 compute unit per 1,000 products**. Sitemap mode is the most efficient since product URLs are fetched directly without pagination overhead. A full catalog scrape of ~5,000 products costs roughly **$0.50**. ### How it works 1. **Sitemap mode** (default): fetches `/sitemap/DREV/products.xml` to discover all product URLs, then visits each page 2. **Search mode**: navigates to Dreamland's brand/merchandise pages at `/nl/m/{slug}` 3. **Category mode**: browses the specified category with automatic pagination Product data is extracted from JSON-LD `ProductGroup` schema embedded in each page — this gives clean, structured data without fragile HTML parsing. ### Limitations - Dreamland uses a 0-100 rating scale internally; the scraper normalizes ratings to the standard 0-5 scale - Search mode uses brand page matching — very niche keywords may return fewer results than the website's client-side search - Data is scraped from the public website and may change without notice # Actor input Schema ## `categoryUrl` (type: `string`): A Dreamland category page URL to scrape. Example: https://www.dreamland.be/nl/c/actiespeelgoed/producten. If empty, scrapes from sitemap. ## `searchQuery` (type: `string`): Search for products by keyword (e.g., 'lego', 'pokemon'). Uses category page filtering. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of products to return. ## `language` (type: `string`): Language for product data. Affects URL prefix (/nl/ or /fr/). ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Proxy settings. Usually not needed for Dreamland.be. ## Actor input object example ```json { "categoryUrl": "https://www.dreamland.be/nl/c/actiespeelgoed/producten", "maxResults": 100, "language": "nl" } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
