Python empty template

Start a new web scraping project quickly and easily in Python with our empty project template. It provides a basic structure for the Actor with Apify SDK and allows you to easily add your own functionality.

Included features

• Apify SDK for Python - a toolkit for building Apify Actors and scrapers in Python
• Input schema - define and easily validate a schema for your Actor's input
• Request queue - queues into which you can put the URLs you want to scrape
• Dataset - store structured data where each object stored has the same attributes

How it works

Insert your own code to async with Actor: block. You can use the Apify SDK with any other Python library.

Resources

• Python tutorials in Academy
• Video guide on getting data using Apify API
• Integration with Make, GitHub, Zapier, Google Drive, and other apps
• A short guide on how to build web scrapers using code templates:

Getting started

For complete information see this article. In short, you will:

1. Build the Actor
2. 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:

1. Install apify-cli

   Using Homebrew

   $brew install apify-cli

   Using NPM

   $npm-ginstall apify-cli

2. 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>
