This is technically backwards-incompatible; override USER_AGENT if you relied on old value. + Fix PyPy and PyPy3 test failures, support them officially (issue 2793, issue 2935, issue 2990, issue 3050, issue 2213, issue 3048) + Fix DNS resolver when DNSCACHE_ENABLED=False (issue 2811) + Add cryptography for Debian Jessie tox test env (issue 2848) + Add verification to check if Request callback is callable (issue 2766) + Port extras/qpsclient.py to Python 3 (issue 2849) + Use getfullargspec under the scenes for Python 3 to stop DeprecationWarning (issue 2862) + Update deprecated test aliases (issue 2876) + Fix SitemapSpider support for alternate links (issue 2853)

A new setting is introduced to toggle between warning or exception if needed ; see SPIDER_LOADER_WARN_ONLY for details. - Update to Scrapy 1.3.2
* Bug fixes + Preserve request class when converting to/from dicts (utils.reqser) (issue 2510). + Use consistent selectors for author field in tutorial (issue 2551). + Fix TLS compatibility in Twisted 17+ (issue 2558) - Update to Scrapy 1.3.1
* New features + Support \'True\' and \'False\' string values for boolean settings (issue 2519); you can now do something like scrapy crawl myspider -s REDIRECT_ENABLED=False. + Support kwargs with response.xpath() to use XPath variables and ad-hoc namespaces declarations ; this requires at least Parsel v1.1 (issue 2457). + Add support for Python 3.6 (issue 2485). + Run tests on PyPy (warning: some tests still fail, so PyPy is not supported yet).

You can switch back to short logger names using LOG_SHORT_NAMES set to True.
* Dependencies & Cleanups + Scrapy now requires Twisted >= 13.1 which is the case for many Linux distributions already. + As a consequence, we got rid of scrapy.xlib.tx. * modules, which copied some of Twisted code for users stuck with an “old” Twisted version + ChunkedTransferMiddleware is deprecated and removed from the default downloader middlewares. - Update to Scrapy 1.2.3

Wed Mar 29 14:00:00 2017 jacobwinskiAATTgmail.com - Update spec file: change python-pyasn1 to python2-pyasn1
Sun Jun 5 14:00:00 2016 jacobwinskiAATTgmail.com - Cleanup spec file - Add Conflicts: python3-Scrapy since now Scrapy supports Python 3 and both create identically named executables
Thu Jun 2 14:00:00 2016 jacobwinskiAATTgmail.com - Update to 1.1.0
* Most important features and bug fixes: + Scrapy 1.1 has beta Python 3 support (requires Twisted >= 15.5). See Beta Python 3 Support for more details and some limitations. + Hot new features: - Item loaders now support nested loaders (issue 1467). - FormRequest.from_response improvements (issue 1382, issue 1137). - Added setting AUTOTHROTTLE_TARGET_CONCURRENCY and improved AutoThrottle docs (issue 1324). - Added response.text to get body as unicode (issue 1730). - Anonymous S3 connections (issue 1358). - Deferreds in downloader middlewares (issue 1473). This enables better robots.txt handling (issue 1471). - HTTP caching now follows RFC2616 more closely, added settings HTTPCACHE_ALWAYS_STORE and HTTPCACHE_IGNORE_RESPONSE_CACHE_CONTROLS (issue 1151). - Selectors were extracted to the parsel library (issue 1409). This means you can use Scrapy Selectors without Scrapy and also upgrade the selectors engine without needing to upgrade Scrapy. - HTTPS downloader now does TLS protocol negotiation by default, instead of forcing TLS 1.0. You can also set the SSL/TLS method using the new DOWNLOADER_CLIENT_TLS_METHOD. + These bug fixes may require your attention: - Don’t retry bad requests (HTTP 400) by default (issue 1289). If you need the old behavior, add 400 to RETRY_HTTP_CODES. - Fix shell files argument handling (issue 1710, issue 1550). If you try scrapy shell index.html it will try to load the URL http://index.html, use scrapy shell ./index.html to load a local file. - Robots.txt compliance is now enabled by default for newly-created projects (issue 1724). Scrapy will also wait for robots.txt to be downloaded before proceeding with the crawl (issue 1735). If you want to disable this behavior, update ROBOTSTXT_OBEY in settings.py file after creating a new project. - Exporters now work on unicode, instead of bytes by default (issue 1080). If you use PythonItemExporter, you may want to update your code to disable binary mode which is now deprecated. - Accept XML node names containing dots as valid (issue 1533). - When uploading files or images to S3 (with FilesPipeline or ImagesPipeline), the default ACL policy is now “private” instead of “public” Warning: backwards incompatible!. You can use FILES_STORE_S3_ACL to change it. - We’ve reimplemented canonicalize_url() for more correct output, especially for URLs with non-ASCII characters (issue 1947). This could change link extractors output compared to previous scrapy versions. This may also invalidate some cache entries you could still have from pre-1.1 runs. Warning: backwards incompatible!.
* Beta Python 3 Support with the following limitations: + Scrapy has not been tested on Windows with Python 3 + Sending emails is not supported + FTP download handler is not supported + Telnet console is not supported
* Additional New Features and Enhancements: + Scrapy now has a Code of Conduct (issue 1681). + Command line tool now has completion for zsh (issue 934). + Improvements to scrapy shell: - Support for bpython and configure preferred Python shell via SCRAPY_PYTHON_SHELL (issue 1100, issue 1444). - Support URLs without scheme (issue 1498) Warning: backwards incompatible! - Bring back support for relative file path (issue 1710, issue 1550). + Added MEMUSAGE_CHECK_INTERVAL_SECONDS setting to change default check interval (issue 1282). + Download handlers are now lazy-loaded on first request using their scheme (issue 1390, issue 1421). + HTTPS download handlers do not force TLS 1.0 anymore; instead, OpenSSL’s SSLv23_method()/TLS_method() is used allowing to try negotiating with the remote hosts the highest TLS protocol version it can (issue 1794, issue 1629). + RedirectMiddleware now skips the status codes from handle_httpstatus_list on spider attribute or in Request‘s meta key (issue 1334, issue 1364, issue 1447). + Form submission: - now works with
