Python Crawlee with Playwright template
A template for web scraping data from websites starting from provided URLs using Python. The starting URLs are passed through the Actor's input schema, defined by the input schema. The template uses Crawlee for Python for efficient web crawling, making requests via headless browser managed by Playwright, and handling each request through a user-defined handler that uses Playwright API to extract data from the page. Enqueued URLs are managed in the request queue, and the extracted data is saved in a dataset for easy access.
Included features
- Apify SDK - a toolkit for building Apify Actors in Python.
- Crawlee for Python - a web scraping and browser automation library.
- Input schema - define and validate a schema for your Actor's input.
- Request queue - manage the URLs you want to scrape in a queue.
- Dataset - store and access structured data extracted from web pages.
- Playwright - a library for managing headless browsers.

Getting started
For complete information see this article. In short, you will:
- Build the Actor
- Run the Actor
Pull the Actor for local development
If you would like to develop locally, you can pull the existing Actor from Apify console using Apify CLI:
-
Install
apify-cliUsing Homebrew
$brew install apify-cliUsing NPM
$npm-ginstall apify-cli -
Pull the Actor by its unique
<ActorId>, which is one of the following:- unique name of the Actor to pull (e.g. "apify/hello-world")
- or ID of the Actor to pull (e.g. "E2jjCZBezvAZnX8Rb")
You can find both by clicking on the Actor title at the top of the page, which will open a modal containing both Actor unique name and Actor ID.
This command will copy the Actor into the current directory on your local machine.
$apify pull <ActorId>
