Spiders can now modify :ref:settings <topics-settings> in their
:meth:~scrapy.Spider.from_crawler methods, e.g. based on :ref:spider arguments <spiderargs>.
Periodic logging of stats.
Backward-incompatible changes
- Most of the initialization of :class:`scrapy.crawler.Crawler` instances is
now done in :meth:`~scrapy.crawler.Crawler.crawl`, so the state of
instances before that method is called is now different compared to older
Scrapy versions. We do not recommend using the
:class:`~scrapy.crawler.Crawler` instances before
:meth:`~scrapy.crawler.Crawler.crawl` is called. (:issue:`6038`)
:meth:scrapy.Spider.from_crawler is now called before the initialization
of various components previously initialized in
:meth:scrapy.crawler.Crawler.__init__ and before the settings are
finalized and frozen. This change was needed to allow changing the settings
in :meth:scrapy.Spider.from_crawler. If you want to access the final
setting values in the spider code as early as possible you can do this in
:meth:~scrapy.Spider.start_requests. (:issue:6038)
The :meth:TextResponse.json <scrapy.http.TextResponse.json> method now
requires the response to be in a valid JSON encoding (UTF-8, UTF-16, or
UTF-32). If you need to deal with JSON documents in an invalid encoding,
use json.loads(response.text) instead. (:issue:6016)
Deprecation removals
- Removed the binary export mode of
:class:`~scrapy.exporters.PythonItemExporter`, deprecated in Scrapy 1.1.0.
(:issue:`6006`, :issue:`6007`)
.. note:: If you are using this Scrapy version on Scrapy Cloud with a stack
that includes an older Scrapy version and get a "TypeError:
Unexpected options: binary" error, you may need to add
``scrapinghub-entrypoint-scrapy >= 0.14.1`` to your project
requirements or switch to a stack that includes Scrapy 2.11.
- Removed the ``CrawlerRunner.spiders`` attribute, deprecated in Scrapy
1.0.0, use :attr:`CrawlerRunner.spider_loader
