You can access the Legacy Phantomjs Crawler programmatically from your own JavaScript applications by using the Apify API. You can also choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.

1import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';
2
3// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
4// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
5const client = new ApifyClient({
6    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
7});
8
9// Prepare Actor input
10const input = {
11    "startUrls": [
12        {
13            "key": "START",
14            "value": "https://www.example.com/"
15        }
16    ],
17    "crawlPurls": [
18        {
19            "key": "MY_LABEL",
20            "value": "https://www.example.com/[.*]"
21        }
22    ],
23    "clickableElementsSelector": "a:not([rel=nofollow])",
24    "pageFunction": function pageFunction(context) {
25        // called on every page the crawler visits, use it to extract data from it
26        var $ = context.jQuery;
27        var result = {
28            title: $('title').text(),
29            myValue: $('TODO').text()
30        };
31        return result;
32    },
33    "interceptRequest": function interceptRequest(context, newRequest) {
34        // called whenever the crawler finds a link to a new page,
35        // use it to override default behavior
36        return newRequest;
37    }
38};
39
40// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
41const run = await client.actor("apify/legacy-phantomjs-crawler").call(input);
42
43// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
44console.log('Results from dataset');
45console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
46const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
47items.forEach((item) => {
48    console.dir(item);
