The Actor is free to use, and you only pay for the Apify platform usage, which gets cheaper the higher subscription plan you have.

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 ## French Fuel Prices Finder — Pro **Free Apify actor.** Live fuel prices at French stations with **five search modes, fuel-type filtering, price/service filters, sorting and geo radius**. Prix des carburants en France en temps reel. Source: official feed "Prix des carburants - flux instantane" on `data.economie.gouv.fr` (Ministere de l'Economie). No API key. Open Licence 2.0. ### Search modes - **postalCode** / **city** / **department** / **region** — by area. - **nearPoint** — stations within `radiusMeters` of a GPS point, with computed `distance_m`. ### Filters & sorting `fuelType` (gazole, SP95, SP98, E10, E85, GPLc) keeps only stations selling it; `maxPrice` caps the chosen fuel's price; `requiredService` matches a service substring (e.g. "24/24"); `sortBy` = cheapest/most expensive (needs a fuel type) or nearest (nearPoint). `maxStations` caps volume per query. ### Runtime (developer-grade) Bounded **parallelism** (`maxConcurrency`), global **`maxItems`** cap, **de-duplication** by station id, resilient HTTP client (timeout, backoff+jitter, 429/5xx), optional **Apify proxy**, structured logs, and a **run summary** in the key-value store (`OUTPUT`). ### Output (trimmed) ```json { "query": "near 48.8534,2.3488", "status": "found", "station_id": 75001003, "adresse": "8 Rue Bailleul", "ville": "Paris", "gazole": 2.59, "sp95": 2.39, "sp98": 2.46, "latitude": 48.861, "longitude": 2.341, "distance_m": 420 } ```` A `null` price means that fuel is not sold / not reported. Every query yields an item with `status`: `found`, `not_found`, `error`. ### Use cases - "Cheapest gazole within 5 km" tools and dashboards. - Compare fuel prices across a city, department or region. - Track diesel/petrol price trends by area over time. - Feed logistics and fleet cost models. ### Limitations & fair use - Prices are station-reported and refreshed frequently but may lag reality. - Use `maxConcurrency` responsibly on this shared public API. ### More actors by this developer See the full range of French open-data actors: https://apify.com/vigilant\_jasmine # Actor input Schema ## `searchMode` (type: `string`): How to select stations. ## `postalCodes` (type: `array`): 5-digit postal codes (postalCode mode). ## `cities` (type: `array`): City names (city mode, full-text match). ## `departments` (type: `array`): Department names, e.g. Gironde (department mode). ## `regions` (type: `array`): Region names, e.g. Nouvelle-Aquitaine (region mode). ## `latitude` (type: `string`): Centre latitude. ## `longitude` (type: `string`): Centre longitude. ## `radiusMeters` (type: `integer`): Search radius in metres (100-100000). ## `fuelType` (type: `string`): Only stations selling this fuel (also drives price sort/threshold). ## `maxPrice` (type: `string`): Only stations where the chosen fuel is <= this price (eur/L). Requires a fuel type. ## `requiredService` (type: `string`): Only stations whose services contain this text, e.g. '24/24'. ## `sortBy` (type: `string`): Sort results (price options require a fuel type; distance requires nearPoint). ## `maxStations` (type: `integer`): Max stations returned per query (1-300). ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Hard cap on total dataset items across all queries. 0 = unlimited. ## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`): How many queries to process in parallel (1-20). ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Optional Apify proxy for outbound requests. Off by default; these are public government APIs. ## `debug` (type: `boolean`): Enable verbose debug logs (retries, URLs). ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchMode": "postalCode", "postalCodes": [ "75001", "33000", "69001" ], "cities": [ "Bordeaux" ], "departments": [ "Gironde" ], "regions": [ "Nouvelle-Aquitaine" ], "latitude": "48.8534", "longitude": "2.3488", "radiusMeters": 5000, "fuelType": "any", "sortBy": "none", "maxStations": 50, "maxItems": 0, "maxConcurrency": 5, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": false }, "debug": false } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
