## What's an Apify Actor?

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.

# README

## District.in Event Scraper

The **District.in Event Scraper** is an Apify Actor designed to extract event listings from [district.in](https://www.district.in/) based on specific cities. It uses intelligent automation to handle city selection, infinite scrolling, and dynamic content loading to provide clean, structured data for entertainment, workshops, and social gatherings.

It automatically handles pagination and extraction, producing structured data that can be easily exported for event aggregators, market research, or personal planning.

---

### ⭐ Features

- Scrapes **event titles, dates, venues, prices, and direct URLs**.
- **Smart City Selection**: Automatically handles search and dropdowns to target specific locations.
- **Infinite Scrolling**: built-in scrolling mechanism to load and capture all available events.
- **Concurrent Processing**: Uses a pool of browsers to process event details in parallel for speed.
- **Reliable**: Built with Playwright for robust handling of dynamic content.
- Exports results as **JSON**, **CSV**, **Excel**, or via API.

---

### 📝 Example Use Cases

- **Event Aggregation**: Build a comprehensive database of local events for your app or website.
- **Market Research**: Analyze ticket pricing trends and venue popularity in different cities.
- **Social Planning**: Discover upcoming workshops, parties, and gatherings for community engagement.
- **Competitor Analysis**: Track event offerings and schedules across multiple locations.

---

### 🚀 How to Use

1. Open the Actor on Apify.
2. Enter the **Location** you want to scrape events from (e.g., "Mumbai", "Delhi", "Bengaluru", "Dubai").
3. Click **Run**.
4. Download or access your dataset in JSON, CSV, or Excel.

---

### 🧩 Input Configuration

The Actor accepts a JSON object with the following property:

| Field      | Type   | Required | Description                                              |
| ---------- | ------ | -------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| `location` | String | ✔️ Yes   | The city name to scrape events from (Default: "Mumbai"). |

#### Example Input

```json
{
    "location": "Mumbai"
}
````

***

### 📦 Output Fields

The Actor stores filtered results in the default dataset. Each item contains:

- `title`: The name/title of the event
- `date`: The date or date string of the event (e.g., "Sat, 15 Feb onwards")
- `venue`: The location/venue where the event is held
- `price`: The ticket price or range (if available)
- `event_url`: Direct link to the event page on district.in
- `city`: The city for which the event was scraped

#### Example Output

```json
[
    {
        "title": "Sunburn Union Presents: Local Artists Collective",
        "date": "Sat, 15 Feb onwards",
        "venue": "Sunburn Union: Bangalore",
        "price": "₹ 499 onwards",
        "event_url": "https://www.district.in/events/sunburn-union-presents-local-artists-collective-feb15-2025",
        "city": "Bengaluru"
    }
]
