Hi all

Currently when i output to csv scrapy runspider myxml.py -o ~/items.csv -t 
csv I get the header items I defined in settings under feed export, however 
i get the values collected as dictionaries dumped as a dictionary.

Where do i define that dict[0] for each element should be its own line?

So at the moment this is my output

id,num,dist
"209165,209166,209167,209168,209169,209170,209171,209172,209173","1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9","1000,1000,1400,1200,1200,1600,1600,1000,2000"

I would want it as

id,num,dist
209165,1,1000
209166,2,1000
...

Looking in feedexporters in the docs for info but feeling I should just be 
creating a customer function to tidy it up, is that what I do if yes where. 
Seems like scrapy has thought of most things so expect its done I am just 
not sure what its called.

My current code.

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import scrapy
from scrapy.selector import Selector
from scrapy.http import HtmlResponse
from scrapy.selector import XmlXPathSelector
from conv_xml.items import ConvXmlItem
# http://stackoverflow.com/a/27391649/461887
import json


class MyxmlSpider(scrapy.Spider):
    name = "myxml"

    start_urls = (
        ["file:///home/sayth/Downloads/20160123RAND0.xml"]
    )

    def parse(self, response):
        sel = Selector(response)
        sites = sel.xpath('//meeting')
        items = []

        for site in sites:
            item = ConvXmlItem()
            # item['venue'] = site.xpath('.//@venue').extract()
            item['id'] = site.xpath('.//race/@id').extract()
            item['num'] = site.xpath('.//race/@number').extract()
            item['dist'] = site.xpath('.//race/@distance').extract()
            items.append(item)

        return items


Thanks Sayth
