Python 3 Is Coming To Scrapy (scrapinghub.com)

New submitter Valdir Stumm Junior writes: Scrapy with beta Python 3 support is finally here! Released through Scrapy 1.1.0rc1, this is the result of several months of hard work on the part of the Scrapy community and Scrapinghub engineers.

This is a huge milestone for all you Scrapy users (and those who haven't used Scrapy due to the lack of Python 3). Scrapy veterans and new adopters will soon be able to move their entire stack to Python 3 once the release becomes stable. Keep in mind that since this a release candidate, it is not ready to be used in production.

  1. Seriously, WTF is "Scrapy"?? by JustAnotherOldGuy · · Score: 1, Troll

    Seriously, would it be SO hard to include a couple of words about what "Scrapy" is? Just a couple of words?

    Fuck it. You know, I had high hopes that the new owners of slashdot might exercise just the tiniest fucking bit of editorial skill or acumen, but I must be one of those perpetual optimists, doomed to disappointment.

    Pro Tip to the "editors": When you write an article about something, it's considered good journalistic practice to explain potentially obscure references so people know what the fuck you're talking about.
