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 ## Naukri Mechanical Engineer Scraper Production-grade Apify actor for scraping Mechanical Design Engineer job listings from Naukri.com. ### 🚀 Features - **Targeted Scraping**: Specialized for Mechanical Design Engineer roles - **Comprehensive Data**: 15+ fields per job - **Anti-Detection**: Proxy rotation and rate limiting - **Production Ready**: Error handling and monitoring - **Scalable Architecture**: Handles pagination automatically ### 📊 Data Collected - Job Title & ID - Company Name & URL - Experience Required - Salary Range - Location - Job Description - Required Skills - Employment Type - Posted Date - Source & Timestamp ### 🛠️ Quick Start #### Local Development ```bash ## Clone and setup git clone cd naukri-mechanical-scraper npm install ## Run locally npm run dev # Actor input Schema ## `searchKeywords` (type: `string`): Job title or keywords (comma-separated for multiple) ## `locations` (type: `array`): Cities or regions to filter jobs ## `maxPages` (type: `integer`): Maximum search result pages to scrape ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of jobs to collect ## `headless` (type: `boolean`): Run browser in headless mode (recommended) ## `delayBetweenRequests` (type: `integer`): Minimum delay between page requests ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Proxy settings for scraping ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchKeywords": "Mechanical Design Engineer, CAD Engineer, Product Design Engineer", "locations": [], "maxPages": 5, "maxResults": 50, "headless": true, "delayBetweenRequests": 2, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": 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 = {}; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("shankar_r/my-actor").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 📖?
