Hi, we’re Zyte, the central point of entry for all your web data needs.
Write custom Node.js code and use any of the 400k+ npm packages available. Refer to the Pipedream Node docs to learn more.
The Zyte API provides programmatic access to web data extraction services, allowing you to pull structured data from websites efficiently. Within Pipedream, you can leverage the Zyte API to create powerful serverless workflows that automate data collection, monitor web content changes, or enrich your datasets with web-sourced information. By connecting Zyte to other apps on Pipedream, you can easily integrate web scraping into your data processing pipelines, event-driven applications, and more, with minimal setup and no server maintenance.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
zyte_api: {
type: "app",
app: "zyte_api",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
const data = {
"url": "https://books.toscrape.com/",
"httpResponseBody": true
}
return await axios($, {
method: "post",
url: `https://api.zyte.com/v1/extract`,
headers: {
"Content-Type": `application/json`,
},
auth: {
username: `${this.zyte_api.$auth.api_key}`,
password: ``,
},
data,
})
},
})
Develop, run and deploy your Node.js code in Pipedream workflows, using it between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and File Stores.
This includes installing NPM packages, within your code without having to manage a package.json
file or running npm install
.
Below is an example of installing the axios
package in a Pipedream Node.js code step. Pipedream imports the axios
package, performs the API request, and shares the response with subsequent workflow steps:
// To use previous step data, pass the `steps` object to the run() function
export default defineComponent({
async run({ steps, $ }) {
// Return data to use it in future steps
return steps.trigger.event
},
})
