About practo-hospital-review-scrapper

Need to gather real patient feedback from Practo? I built this scraper specifically for that job. You give it the URL of a hospital's review page on Practo, and it handles the rest, pulling down the patient ratings and comments you need for analysis. It's straightforward—no complicated setup. One thing to note from my experience: Practo's pages can get slow after a while, so the actor is configured to reliably scrape up to 30 pages, which typically gets you around 310 reviews. That's more than enough data for most research projects. I've used the data it collects for everything from competitive analysis in the healthcare sector to populating internal dashboards that track brand reputation. It's a solid, single-purpose tool that does one thing well: turning a public Practo review page into a structured dataset you can actually work with in a spreadsheet or database.

Documentation

practo-hospital-review-scrapper

An Apify Actor built on a production-ready template using PlaywrightCrawler and the stealth-focused Camoufox browser. It's designed for scraping data from websites that employ anti-bot measures, making it suitable for lead generation, SEO tools, and integrations.

Overview

This actor is a scraper specifically configured to handle sites that may block standard browsers. It uses the Crawlee library (the evolution of Apify SDK for scraping tasks) with Playwright, paired with a modified Firefox build designed to evade detection. Note that Camoufox may use more system resources than the default Chromium or Firefox browsers bundled with Playwright.

Key Features

  • Stealth-Focused Scraping: Utilizes Camoufox, a fork of Firefox engineered to avoid fingerprinting and blocking.
  • Modern Foundation: Built on the latest PlaywrightCrawler from the Crawlee library, ensuring access to current best practices for web scraping.
  • Apify Platform Ready: Fully configured for deployment, running, and scheduling on the Apify platform.
  • Local Development Support: Can be easily pulled and developed locally using the Apify CLI.

How to Use

You can run the actor directly on the Apify platform or set it up for local development and customization.

Running on Apify Console

  1. Build the actor from its source code in the console.
  2. Run it, providing the required input configuration (like target URLs).

Local Development

To develop or modify the actor locally, use the Apify CLI to pull the code:

  1. Install Apify CLI:
    ```bash
    # Using npm
    npm -g install apify-cli

    Using Homebrew

    brew install apify-cli
    2. **Pull the Actor:** Use its unique name or ID (found in the Actor's details on Apify Console).bash
    apify pull
    ```

Input/Output

  • Input: The actor requires an input configuration (typically a JSON object) specifying the target data to scrape. The exact input schema (like start URLs, pagination settings, or selectors) is defined by the actor's specific implementation for scraping Practo hospital reviews.
  • Output: The scraped data (like review text, ratings, dates, and author information) is stored in the Apify dataset associated with the actor run. You can then export it in formats like JSON, CSV, or Excel via the Apify console or API.
