Add data to dataset
This example saves data to the default dataset. If the dataset doesn't exist, it will be created. You can save data to custom datasets by using
Apify.openDataset()
const Apify = require('apify');
Apify.main(async () => {
const requestList = await Apify.openRequestList('start-urls', [
{ url: 'http://www.example.com/page-1' },
{ url: 'http://www.example.com/page-2' },
{ url: 'http://www.example.com/page-3' },
]);
// Function called for each URL
const handlePageFunction = async ({ request, body }) => {
// Save data to default dataset
await Apify.pushData({
url: request.url,
html: body,
});
};
const crawler = new Apify.CheerioCrawler({
requestList,
handlePageFunction,
});
// Run the crawler
await crawler.run();
});
Each item in this dataset will be saved to its own file in the following directory:
{PROJECT_FOLDER}/apify_storage/datasets/default/
