process.crawl(SomewebsiteProductSpider)
process.start()
How can I pass a dynamic start_urls list to a "SomewebsiteProductSpiders" object from test.py before launching the crawling process ? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
process.crawl
accepts optional parameters that are passed to spider's constructor, so you can either populate start_urls
from spider's __init__
or use custom start_requests
procedure. For example
test.py
...
process.crawl(SomewebsiteProductSpider, url_list=[...])
somespider.py
class SomewebsiteProductSpider(scrapy.Spider):
...
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
self.start_urls = kwargs.pop('url_list', [])
super(SomewebsiteProductSpider, *args, **kwargs)
You can avoid additional kwargs parsing from @mizghun's answer simply by passing start_urls as a parameter.
