Hi Muhammad, Thanks for giving a Scrapy presentation! Here are some notes:
1. "comparing BeautifulSoup (or lxml) to Scrapy is like comparing jinja2 to Django" - more like jinja2 to flask because Scrapy uses lxml (like flask uses jinja2). 2. Scrapy 0.24 is recently released; it could simplify some (if not all) Scrapy code snippets in the presentation. Check the updated Scrapy tutorial (http://doc.scrapy.org/en/latest/intro/tutorial.html). Common classes can be imported directly from "scrapy", there is usually no need to create Selector explicitly, there is no need to pass "-t json" in 0.24. 3. If you find XPaths complex you may like Scrapy CSS selectors more. четверг, 26 июня 2014 г., 16:35:05 UTC+6 пользователь Yasoob Khaloid написал: > > Hi guys, > > I am making a presentation about webscraping which I will be giving at > EuroPython 2014.
