Quick Start

Add the following inside Scrapy’s settings.py file:

• Scrapy ≥ 2.10:

  ADDONS = {
      "scrapy_poet.Addon": 300,
  }

• Scrapy < 2.10:

  DOWNLOADER_MIDDLEWARES = {
      "scrapy_poet.InjectionMiddleware": 543,
      "scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.stats.DownloaderStats": None,
      "scrapy_poet.DownloaderStatsMiddleware": 850,
  }

Developing

Setup your local Python environment via:

1. pip install -r requirements-dev.txt

2. pre-commit install

Now everytime you perform a git commit, these tools will run against the staged files:

• black

• isort

• flake8

You can also directly invoke pre-commit run –all-files or tox -e linters to run them without performing a commit.
