Web Scraping Tutorial #2 | Complete Scrapy Project with Infinite Scroll | How To Scrape "Load More"

Part 2 of our latest Scrapy project / Web Scraping Tutorial. Creating the Spider. Web Scraping a large site with "infinite scroll" aka "AJAX load more". (This is based on a real world project from Upwork).

*** PART 2 of 7 ***

This covers the set up of the spider code, creating the spider class, name, custom settings, start urls, headers, os.remove of test files, and then moves on to look at the 2 main functions : parse, and parse_detail.

As always, I write the spider to be run using the syntax : "python3 spidername.py

So you can now see how to run Scrapy as a Python Script.
