Description:
A quick yet reasonably thorough introduction to Scrapy, the high-level web crawling & scraping framework for Python. Includes a demo, cause I like living on the edge.
The "core concepts demo" is a hands-on introduction, starting from a simple example and progressively adding more features. It covers the following topics:
Spiders (Spider, CrawlSpider, etc)
Selectors (XPath, CSS, Regex, etc)
Items & item loaders
Input & output processors
Pipelines
