I'm getting an error: "cannot import name crawler"
|
||||||
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is caused by Scrapy changes due to the singletons removal. The error is
|
||||||
|
most likely raised by a module (extension, middleware, pipeline or spider) in
|
||||||
|
your Scrapy project that imports ``crawler`` from ``scrapy.project``. For
|
||||||
|
example::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
from scrapy.project import crawler
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
class SomeExtension(object):
|
||||||
|
def __init__(self):
|
||||||
|
self.crawler = crawler
|
||||||
|
# ...
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This way to access the crawler object is deprecated, the code should be ported
|
||||||
|
to use ``from_crawler`` class method, for example::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
class SomeExtension(object):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@classmethod
|
||||||
|
def from_crawler(cls, crawler):
|
||||||
|
o = cls()
|
||||||
|
o.crawler = crawler
|
||||||
|
return o
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Scrapy command line tool has some backwards compatibility in place to still
|
||||||
|
support the old import mechanism (with a deprecation warning), but this
|
||||||
|
mechanism may not work if you use Scrapy differently (for example, as a
|
||||||
|
library).
