------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Jul 11 10:38:36 UTC 2024 - Dirk Müller <dmueller@suse.com> - update to 2.11.2 (bsc#1224474, CVE-2024-1968): * Redirects to non-HTTP protocols are no longer followed. Please, see the 23j4-mw76-5v7h security advisory for more information. (:issue:`457`) * The Authorization header is now dropped on redirects to a different scheme (http:// or https://) or port, even if the domain is the same. Please, see the 4qqq-9vqf-3h3f security advisory for more information. * When using system proxy settings that are different for http:// and https://, redirects to a different URL scheme will now also trigger the corresponding change in proxy settings for the redirected request. Please, see the jm3v-qxmh-hxwv security advisory for more information. (:issue:`767`) * :attr:`Spider.allowed_domains <scrapy.Spider.allowed_domains>` is now enforced for all requests, and not only requests from spider callbacks. * :func:`~scrapy.utils.iterators.xmliter_lxml` no longer resolves XML entities. * defusedxml is now used to make :class:`scrapy.http.request.rpc.XmlRpcRequest` more secure. * Restored support for brotlipy_, which had been dropped in Scrapy 2.11.1 in favor of brotli. (:issue:`6261`) Note brotlipy is deprecated, both in Scrapy and upstream. Use brotli instead if you can. * Make :setting:`METAREFRESH_IGNORE_TAGS` ["noscript"] by default. This prevents :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares. redirect.MetaRefreshMiddleware` from following redirects that would not be followed by web browsers with JavaScript enabled. * During :ref:`feed export <topics-feed-exports>`, do not close the underlying file from :ref:`built-in post-processing plugins <builtin-plugins>`. * :class:`LinkExtractor <scrapy.linkextractors.lxmlhtml.LxmlLinkExtractor>` now properly applies the unique and canonicalize parameters. * Do not initialize the scheduler disk queue if :setting:`JOBDIR` is an empty string. * Fix :attr:`Spider.logger <scrapy.Spider.logger>` not logging custom extra information. * robots.txt files with a non-UTF-8 encoding no longer prevent parsing the UTF-8-compatible (e.g. ASCII) parts of the document. * :meth:`scrapy.http.cookies.WrappedRequest.get_header` no longer raises an exception if default is None. :func:`scrapy.utils.response.get_base_url` to determine the base URL of a given :class:`~scrapy.http.Response`. * :class:`~scrapy.selector.Selector` now uses :func:`scrapy.utils.response.get_base_url` to determine the base URL of a given :class:`~scrapy.http.Response`. (:issue:`6265`) * The :meth:`media_to_download` method of :ref:`media pipelines <topics-media-pipeline>` now logs exceptions before stripping them. * When passing a callback to the :command:`parse` command, build the callback callable with the right signature. * Add a FAQ entry about :ref:`creating blank requests <faq- blank-request>`. * Document that :attr:`scrapy.selector.Selector.type` can be "json". * Make builds reproducible. * Packaging and test fixes ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Mar 25 14:12:20 UTC 2024 - Dirk Müller <dmueller@suse.com> - update to 2.11.1 (bsc#1220514, CVE-2024-1892, bsc#1221986): * Addressed `ReDoS vulnerabilities` (bsc#1220514, CVE-2024-1892) - ``scrapy.utils.iterators.xmliter`` is now deprecated in favor of :func:`~scrapy.utils.iterators.xmliter_lxml`, which :class:`~scrapy.spiders.XMLFeedSpider` now uses. To minimize the impact of this change on existing code, :func:`~scrapy.utils.iterators.xmliter_lxml` now supports indicating the node namespace with a prefix in the node name, and big files with highly nested trees when using libxml2 2.7+. - Fixed regular expressions in the implementation of the :func:`~scrapy.utils.response.open_in_browser` function. .. _ReDoS vulnerabilities: https://owasp.org/www-community/attacks/Regular_expression_Denial_of_Service_-_ReDoS * :setting:`DOWNLOAD_MAXSIZE` and :setting:`DOWNLOAD_WARNSIZE` now also apply to the decompressed response body. Please, see the `7j7m-v7m3-jqm7 security advisory`_ for more information. (bsc#1221986) .. _7j7m-v7m3-jqm7 security advisory: https://github.com/scrapy/scrapy/security/advisories/GHSA-7j7m-v7m3-jqm7 * Also in relation with the `7j7m-v7m3-jqm7 security advisory`_, the deprecated ``scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.decompression`` module has been removed. * The ``Authorization`` header is now dropped on redirects to a different domain. Please, see the `cw9j-q3vf-hrrv security advisory`_ for more information. * The OS signal handling code was refactored to no longer use private Twisted functions. (:issue:`6024`, :issue:`6064`, :issue:`6112`) * Improved documentation for :class:`~scrapy.crawler.Crawler` initialization changes made in the 2.11.0 release. (:issue:`6057`, :issue:`6147`) * Extended documentation for :attr:`Request.meta <scrapy.http.Request.meta>`. * Fixed the :reqmeta:`dont_merge_cookies` documentation. (:issue:`5936`, * Added a link to Zyte's export guides to the :ref:`feed exports * Added a missing note about backward-incompatible changes in :class:`~scrapy.exporters.PythonItemExporter` to the 2.11.0 release notes. * Added a missing note about removing the deprecated ``scrapy.utils.boto.is_botocore()`` function to the 2.8.0 release notes. * Other documentation improvements. (:issue:`6128`, :issue:`6144`, :issue:`6163`, :issue:`6190`, :issue:`6192`) - drop twisted-23.8.0-compat.patch (upstream) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Jan 10 07:50:52 UTC 2024 - Daniel Garcia <daniel.garcia@suse.com> - Add patch twisted-23.8.0-compat.patch gh#scrapy/scrapy#6064 - Update to 2.11.0: - Spiders can now modify settings in their from_crawler methods, e.g. based on spider arguments. - Periodic logging of stats. - Bug fixes. - 2.10.0: - Added Python 3.12 support, dropped Python 3.7 support. - The new add-ons framework simplifies configuring 3rd-party components that support it. - Exceptions to retry can now be configured. - Many fixes and improvements for feed exports. - 2.9.0: - Per-domain download settings. - Compatibility with new cryptography and new parsel. - JMESPath selectors from the new parsel. - Bug fixes. - 2.8.0: - This is a maintenance release, with minor features, bug fixes, and cleanups. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Nov 7 20:35:15 UTC 2022 - Yogalakshmi Arunachalam <yarunachalam@suse.com> - Update to v2.7.1 * Relaxed the restriction introduced in 2.6.2 so that the Proxy-Authentication header can again be set explicitly in certain cases, restoring compatibility with scrapy-zyte-smartproxy 2.1.0 and older Bug fixes * full change-log https://docs.scrapy.org/en/latest/news.html#scrapy-2-7-1-2022-11-02 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Oct 27 21:15:45 UTC 2022 - Yogalakshmi Arunachalam <yarunachalam@suse.com> - Update to v2.7.0 Highlights: * Added Python 3.11 support, dropped Python 3.6 support * Improved support for :ref:`asynchronous callbacks <topics-coroutines>` * :ref:`Asyncio support <using-asyncio>` is enabled by default on new projects * Output names of item fields can now be arbitrary strings * Centralized :ref:`request fingerprinting <request-fingerprints>` configuration is now possible Modified requirements * Python 3.7 or greater is now required; support for Python 3.6 has been dropped. Support for the upcoming Python 3.11 has been added. The minimum required version of some dependencies has changed as well: - lxml: 3.5.0 → 4.3.0 - Pillow (:ref:`images pipeline <images-pipeline>`): 4.0.0 → 7.1.0 - zope.interface: 5.0.0 → 5.1.0 (:issue:`5512`, :issue:`5514`, :issue:`5524`, :issue:`5563`, :issue:`5664`, :issue:`5670`, :issue:`5678`) Deprecations - :meth:`ImagesPipeline.thumb_path <scrapy.pipelines.images.ImagesPipeline.thumb_path>` must now accept an item parameter (:issue:`5504`, :issue:`5508`). - The scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.decompression module is now deprecated (:issue:`5546`, :issue:`5547`). Complete changelog https://github.com/scrapy/scrapy/blob/2.7/docs/news.rst ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Sep 9 15:21:20 UTC 2022 - Yogalakshmi Arunachalam <yarunachalam@suse.com> - Update to v2.6.2 Security bug fix: * When HttpProxyMiddleware processes a request with proxy metadata, and that proxy metadata includes proxy credentials, HttpProxyMiddleware sets the Proxy-Authentication header, but only if that header is not already set. * There are third-party proxy-rotation downloader middlewares that set different proxy metadata every time they process a request. * Because of request retries and redirects, the same request can be processed by downloader middlewares more than once, including both HttpProxyMiddleware and any third-party proxy-rotation downloader middleware. * These third-party proxy-rotation downloader middlewares could change the proxy metadata of a request to a new value, but fail to remove the Proxy-Authentication header from the previous value of the proxy metadata, causing the credentials of one proxy to be sent to a different proxy. * To prevent the unintended leaking of proxy credentials, the behavior of HttpProxyMiddleware is now as follows when processing a request: + If the request being processed defines proxy metadata that includes credentials, the Proxy-Authorization header is always updated to feature those credentials. + If the request being processed defines proxy metadata without credentials, the Proxy-Authorization header is removed unless it was originally defined for the same proxy URL. + To remove proxy credentials while keeping the same proxy URL, remove the Proxy-Authorization header. + If the request has no proxy metadata, or that metadata is a falsy value (e.g. None), the Proxy-Authorization header is removed. + It is no longer possible to set a proxy URL through the proxy metadata but set the credentials through the Proxy-Authorization header. Set proxy credentials through the proxy metadata instead. * Also fixes the following regressions introduced in 2.6.0: + CrawlerProcess supports again crawling multiple spiders (issue 5435, issue 5436) + Installing a Twisted reactor before Scrapy does (e.g. importing twisted.internet.reactor somewhere at the module level) no longer prevents Scrapy from starting, as long as a different reactor is not specified in TWISTED_REACTOR (issue 5525, issue 5528) + Fixed an exception that was being logged after the spider finished under certain conditions (issue 5437, issue 5440) + The --output/-o command-line parameter supports again a value starting with a hyphen (issue 5444, issue 5445) + The scrapy parse -h command no longer throws an error (issue 5481, issue 5482) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Mar 4 00:06:54 UTC 2022 - Ben Greiner <code@bnavigator.de> - Update runtime requirements and test deselections ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Mar 2 22:17:28 UTC 2022 - Matej Cepl <mcepl@suse.com> - Update to v2.6.1 * Security fixes for cookie handling (CVE-2022-0577 aka bsc#1196638, GHSA-mfjm-vh54-3f96) * Python 3.10 support * asyncio support is no longer considered experimental, and works out-of-the-box on Windows regardless of your Python version * Feed exports now support pathlib.Path output paths and per-feed item filtering and post-processing - Remove unnecessary patches: - remove-h2-version-restriction.patch - add-peak-method-to-queues.patch ------------------------------------------------------------------- Sun Jan 16 21:07:14 UTC 2022 - Ben Greiner <code@bnavigator.de> - Skip a failing test in python310: exception format not recognized ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Oct 7 14:35:57 UTC 2021 - Ben Greiner <code@bnavigator.de> - Update to 2.5.1, Security bug fix * boo#1191446, CVE-2021-41125 * If you use HttpAuthMiddleware (i.e. the http_user and http_pass spider attributes) for HTTP authentication, any request exposes your credentials to the request target. * To prevent unintended exposure of authentication credentials to unintended domains, you must now additionally set a new, additional spider attribute, http_auth_domain, and point it to the specific domain to which the authentication credentials must be sent. * If the http_auth_domain spider attribute is not set, the domain of the first request will be considered the HTTP authentication target, and authentication credentials will only be sent in requests targeting that domain. * If you need to send the same HTTP authentication credentials to multiple domains, you can use w3lib.http.basic_auth_header instead to set the value of the Authorization header of your requests. * If you really want your spider to send the same HTTP authentication credentials to any domain, set the http_auth_domain spider attribute to None. * Finally, if you are a user of scrapy-splash, know that this version of Scrapy breaks compatibility with scrapy-splash 0.7.2 and earlier. You will need to upgrade scrapy-splash to a greater version for it to continue to work. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Sep 1 04:25:44 UTC 2021 - Fusion Future <qydwhotmail@gmail.com> - Remove h2 < 4.0 dependency version restriction. (boo#1190035) * remove-h2-version-restriction.patch - Add peak method to queues to fix build with queuelib 1.6.2. * add-peak-method-to-queues.patch - Drop support for Python 3.6 as python-uvloop does not support it. - Require testfixtures >= 6.0.0 (tests need LogCapture.check_present). (https://github.com/Simplistix/testfixtures/commit/2953bb4caadc1a462e5332ffb01591ba1fc3284f) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Apr 28 09:29:08 UTC 2021 - Ben Greiner <code@bnavigator.de> - Update to 2.5.0: * Official Python 3.9 support * Experimental HTTP/2 support * New get_retry_request() function to retry requests from spider callbacks * New headers_received signal that allows stopping downloads early * New Response.protocol attribute - Release 2.4.1: * Fixed feed exports overwrite support * Fixed the asyncio event loop handling, which could make code hang * Fixed the IPv6-capable DNS resolver CachingHostnameResolver for download handlers that call reactor.resolve * Fixed the output of the genspider command showing placeholders instead of the import part of the generated spider module (issue 4874) - Release 2.4.0: * Python 3.5 support has been dropped. * The file_path method of media pipelines can now access the source item. * This allows you to set a download file path based on item data. * The new item_export_kwargs key of the FEEDS setting allows to define keyword parameters to pass to item exporter classes. * You can now choose whether feed exports overwrite or append to the output file. * For example, when using the crawl or runspider commands, you can use the -O option instead of -o to overwrite the output file. * Zstd-compressed responses are now supported if zstandard is installed. * In settings, where the import path of a class is required, it is now possible to pass a class object instead. - Release 2.3.0: * Feed exports now support Google Cloud Storage as a storage backend * The new FEED_EXPORT_BATCH_ITEM_COUNT setting allows to deliver output items in batches of up to the specified number of items. * It also serves as a workaround for delayed file delivery, which causes Scrapy to only start item delivery after the crawl has finished when using certain storage backends (S3, FTP, and now GCS). * The base implementation of item loaders has been moved into a separate library, itemloaders, allowing usage from outside Scrapy and a separate release schedule - Release 2.2.1: * The startproject command no longer makes unintended changes to the permissions of files in the destination folder, such as removing execution permissions. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Jul 3 17:05:03 UTC 2020 - Jacob W <jacob@jacobwinski.com> - Update to 2.2.0: * Python 3.5.2+ is required now * dataclass objects and attrs objects are now valid item types * New TextResponse.json method * New bytes_received signal that allows canceling response download * CookiesMiddleware fixes - Update to 2.1.0: * New FEEDS setting to export to multiple feeds * New Response.ip_address attribute - Remove zope-exception-test_crawler.patch - Add new required dependency python-itemadapter - Omit test that fails in OBS due to https / tls issues ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue May 19 09:27:53 UTC 2020 - Petr Gajdos <pgajdos@suse.com> - %python3_only -> %python_alternative ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Apr 2 03:38:20 UTC 2020 - Steve Kowalik <steven.kowalik@suse.com> - Update to 2.0.1: * Python 2 support has been removed * Partial coroutine syntax support and experimental asyncio support * New Response.follow_all method * FTP support for media pipelines * New Response.certificate attribute * IPv6 support through DNS_RESOLVER * Response.follow_all now supports an empty URL iterable as input * Removed top-level reactor imports to prevent errors about the wrong Twisted reactor being installed when setting a different Twisted reactor using TWISTED_REACTOR - Add zope-exception-test_crawler.patch, rewriting one testcase to pass with our version of Zope. - Update BuildRequires based on test requirements. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Jan 16 15:00:50 UTC 2020 - Marketa Calabkova <mcalabkova@suse.com> - update to 1.8.0 * Dropped Python 3.4 support and updated minimum requirements; made Python 3.8 support official * lots of new fixes and features ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Aug 23 13:13:43 UTC 2019 - Paolo Stivanin <info@paolostivanin.com> - Update to 1.7.3 * Enforce lxml 4.3.5 or lower for Python 3.4 (issue 3912, issue 3918). * Fix Python 2 support (issue 3889, issue 3893, issue 3896). ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Jul 24 10:27:07 UTC 2019 - Tomáš Chvátal <tchvatal@suse.com> - Format with spec-cleaner - Use just python3 version of Sphinx ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Jul 24 08:37:28 UTC 2019 - pgajdos@suse.com - version update to 1.7.1 * Improvements for crawls targeting multiple domains * A cleaner way to pass arguments to callbacks * A new class for JSON requests * Improvements for rule-based spiders * New features for feed exports see news.rst for details ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu May 16 19:33:46 UTC 2019 - ranand@suse.com - Skip flaky CrawlerTestCase ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Feb 18 21:00:54 UTC 2019 - Hans-Peter Jansen <hpj@urpla.net> - Fix dependencies - Enable tests ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Feb 14 11:48:09 UTC 2019 - Hans-Peter Jansen <hpj@urpla.net> - Update to 1.6.0 (2019-01-30): + Highlights: * better Windows support * Python 3.7 compatibility * big documentation improvements, including a switch from .extract_first() + .extract() API to .get() + .getall() API * feed exports, FilePipeline and MediaPipeline improvements * better extensibility: :signal:`item_error` and :signal:`request_reached_downloader` signals; from_crawler support for feed exporters, feed storages and dupefilters. * scrapy.contracts fixes and new features * telnet console security improvements, first released as a backport in :ref:`release-1.5.2` * clean-up of the deprecated code * various bug fixes, small new features and usability improvements across the codebase. + Selector API changes + While these are not changes in Scrapy itself, but rather in the parsel library which Scrapy uses for xpath/css selectors, these changes are worth mentioning here. Scrapy now depends on parsel >= 1.5, and Scrapy documentation is updated to follow recent parsel API conventions. + Most visible change is that .get() and .getall() selector methods are now preferred over .extract_first() and .extract(). We feel that these new methods result in a more concise and readable code. See :ref:`old-extraction-api` for more details. + Note + There are currently no plans to deprecate .extract() and .extract_first() methods. + Another useful new feature is the introduction of Selector.attrib and SelectorList.attrib properties, which make it easier to get attributes of HTML elements. See :ref:`selecting-attributes`. + CSS selectors are cached in parsel >= 1.5, which makes them faster when the same CSS path is used many times. This is very common in case of Scrapy spiders: callbacks are usually called several times, on different pages. * If you're using custom Selector or SelectorList subclasses, a backwards incompatible change in parsel may affect your code. See parsel changelog for a detailed description, as well as for the full list of improvements. + Telnet console * Backwards incompatible: Scrapy's telnet console now requires username and password. See :ref:`topics-telnetconsole` for more details. This change fixes a security issue; see :ref:`release-1.5.2` release notes for details. + New extensibility features * from_crawler support is added to feed exporters and feed storages. This, among other things, allows to access Scrapy settings from custom feed storages and exporters (:issue:`1605`, :issue:`3348`). * from_crawler support is added to dupefilters (:issue:`2956`); this allows to access e.g. settings or a spider from a dupefilter. * :signal:`item_error` is fired when an error happens in a pipeline (:issue:`3256`) * :signal:`request_reached_downloader` is fired when Downloader gets a new Request; this signal can be useful e.g. for custom Schedulers (:issue:`3393`). * new SitemapSpider :meth:`~.SitemapSpider.sitemap_filter` method which allows to select sitemap entries based on their attributes in SitemapSpider subclasses (:issue:`3512`). * Lazy loading of Downloader Handlers is now optional; this enables better initialization error handling in custom Downloader Handlers (:issue:`3394`). + New FilePipeline and MediaPipeline features * Expose more options for S3FilesStore: :setting:`AWS_ENDPOINT_URL`, :setting:`AWS_USE_SSL`, :setting:`AWS_VERIFY`, :setting:`AWS_REGION_NAME`. For example, this allows to use alternative or self-hosted AWS- compatible providers (:issue:`2609`, :issue:`3548`). * ACL support for Google Cloud Storage: :setting:`FILES_STORE_GCS_ACL` and :setting:`IMAGES_STORE_GCS_ACL` (:issue:`3199`). + scrapy.contracts improvements * Exceptions in contracts code are handled better (:issue:`3377`) * dont_filter=True is used for contract requests, which allows to test different callbacks with the same URL (:issue:`3381`) * request_cls attribute in Contract subclasses allow to use different Request classes in contracts, for example FormRequest (:issue:`3383`). * Fixed errback handling in contracts, e.g. for cases where a contract is executed for URL which returns non-200 response (:issue:`3371`). + Usability improvements * more stats for RobotsTxtMiddleware (:issue:`3100`) * INFO log level is used to show telnet host/port (:issue:`3115`) * a message is added to IgnoreRequest in RobotsTxtMiddleware (:issue:`3113`) * better validation of url argument in Response.follow (:issue:`3131`) * non-zero exit code is returned from Scrapy commands when error happens on spider inititalization (:issue:`3226`) * Link extraction improvements: "ftp" is added to scheme list (:issue:`3152`); "flv" is added to common video extensions (:issue:`3165`) * better error message when an exporter is disabled (:issue:`3358`) * scrapy shell --help mentions syntax required for local files (./file.html) - :issue:`3496`. * Referer header value is added to RFPDupeFilter log messages (:issue:`3588`) + Bug fixes * fixed issue with extra blank lines in .csv exports under Windows (:issue:`3039`) * proper handling of pickling errors in Python 3 when serializing objects for disk queues (:issue:`3082`) * flags are now preserved when copying Requests (:issue:`3342`) * FormRequest.from_response clickdata shouldn't ignore elements with input[type=image] (:issue:`3153`). * FormRequest.from_response should preserve duplicate keys (:issue:`3247`) + Documentation improvements * Docs are re-written to suggest .get/.getall API instead of .extract/.extract_first. Also, :ref:`topics-selectors` docs are updated and re-structured to match latest parsel docs; they now contain more topics, such as :ref:`selecting- attributes` or :ref:`topics-selectors-css-extensions` (:issue:`3390`). * :ref:`topics-developer-tools` is a new tutorial which replaces old Firefox and Firebug tutorials (:issue:`3400`). * SCRAPY_PROJECT environment variable is documented (:issue:`3518`) * troubleshooting section is added to install instructions (:issue:`3517`) * improved links to beginner resources in the tutorial (:issue:`3367`, :issue:`3468`) * fixed :setting:`RETRY_HTTP_CODES` default values in docs (:issue:`3335`) * remove unused DEPTH_STATS option from docs (:issue:`3245`) * other cleanups (:issue:`3347`, :issue:`3350`, :issue:`3445`, :issue:`3544`, :issue:`3605`). + Deprecation removals + Compatibility shims for pre-1.0 Scrapy module names are removed (:issue:`3318`): * scrapy.command * scrapy.contrib (with all submodules) * scrapy.contrib_exp (with all submodules) * scrapy.dupefilter * scrapy.linkextractor * scrapy.project * scrapy.spider * scrapy.spidermanager * scrapy.squeue * scrapy.stats * scrapy.statscol * scrapy.utils.decorator + See :ref:`module-relocations` for more information, or use suggestions from Scrapy 1.5.x deprecation warnings to update your code. + Other deprecation removals: * Deprecated scrapy.interfaces.ISpiderManager is removed; please use scrapy.interfaces.ISpiderLoader. * Deprecated CrawlerSettings class is removed (:issue:`3327`). * Deprecated Settings.overrides and Settings.defaults attributes are removed (:issue:`3327`, :issue:`3359`). + Other improvements, cleanups * All Scrapy tests now pass on Windows; Scrapy testing suite is executed in a Windows environment on CI (:issue:`3315`). * Python 3.7 support (:issue:`3326`, :issue:`3150`, :issue:`3547`). * Testing and CI fixes (:issue:`3526`, :issue:`3538`, :issue:`3308`, :issue:`3311`, :issue:`3309`, :issue:`3305`, :issue:`3210`, :issue:`3299`) * scrapy.http.cookies.CookieJar.clear accepts "domain", "path" and "name" optional arguments (:issue:`3231`). * additional files are included to sdist (:issue:`3495`) * code style fixes (:issue:`3405`, :issue:`3304`) * unneeded .strip() call is removed (:issue:`3519`) * collections.deque is used to store MiddlewareManager methods instead of a list (:issue:`3476`) - Update to 1.5.2 (2019-01-22): + Security bugfix: Telnet console extension can be easily exploited by rogue websites POSTing content to http://localhost:6023, we haven't found a way to exploit it from Scrapy, but it is very easy to trick a browser to do so and elevates the risk for local development environment. + The fix is backwards incompatible, it enables telnet user- password authentication by default with a random generated password.

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). * Bug fixes + Enforce DNS_TIMEOUT setting (issue 2496). + Fix view command ; it was a regression in v1.3.0 (issue 2503). + Fix tests regarding *_EXPIRES settings with Files/Images pipelines (issue 2460). + Fix name of generated pipeline class when using basic project template (issue 2466). + Fix compatiblity with Twisted 17+ (issue 2496, issue 2528). + Fix scrapy.Item inheritance on Python 3.6 (issue 2511). + Enforce numeric values for components order in SPIDER_MIDDLEWARES, DOWNLOADER_MIDDLEWARES, EXTENIONS and SPIDER_CONTRACTS (issue 2420). * Documentation + Reword Code of Coduct section and upgrade to Contributor Covenant v1.4 (issue 2469). + Clarify that passing spider arguments converts them to spider attributes (issue 2483). + Document formid argument on FormRequest.from_response() (issue 2497). + Add .rst extension to README files (issue 2507). + Mention LevelDB cache storage backend (issue 2525). + Use yield in sample callback code (issue 2533). + Add note about HTML entities decoding with .re()/.re_first() (issue 1704). + Typos (issue 2512, issue 2534, issue 2531). * Cleanups + Remove reduntant check in MetaRefreshMiddleware (issue 2542). + Faster checks in LinkExtractor for allow/deny patterns (issue 2538). + Remove dead code supporting old Twisted versions (issue 2544). - Update to Scrapy 1.3.0 * New Features + MailSender now accepts single strings as values for to and cc arguments (issue 2272) + scrapy fetch url, scrapy shell url and fetch(url) inside scrapy shell now follow HTTP redirections by default (issue 2290); See fetch and shell for details. + HttpErrorMiddleware now logs errors with INFO level instead of DEBUG; this is technically backwards incompatible so please check your log parsers. + By default, logger names now use a long-form path, e.g. [scrapy.extensions.logstats], instead of the shorter “top-level” variant of prior releases (e.g. [scrapy]); this is backwards incompatible if you have log parsers expecting the short logger name part. 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 * Packaging fix: disallow unsupported Twisted versions in setup.py - Update to Scrapy 1.2.2 * Bug fixes + Fix a cryptic traceback when a pipeline fails on open_spider() (issue 2011) + Fix embedded IPython shell variables (fixing issue 396 that re-appeared in 1.2.0, fixed in issue 2418) + A couple of patches when dealing with robots.txt: - handle (non-standard) relative sitemap URLs (issue 2390) - handle non-ASCII URLs and User-Agents in Python 2 (issue 2373) * Documentation + Document "download_latency" key in Request’s meta dict (issue 2033) + Remove page on (deprecated & unsupported) Ubuntu packages from ToC (issue 2335) + A few fixed typos (issue 2346, issue 2369, issue 2369, issue 2380) and clarifications (issue 2354, issue 2325, issue 2414) * Other changes + Advertize conda-forge as Scrapy’s official conda channel (issue 2387) + More helpful error messages when trying to use .css() or .xpath() on non-Text Responses (issue 2264) + startproject command now generates a sample middlewares.py file (issue 2335) + Add more dependencies’ version info in scrapy version verbose output (issue 2404) + Remove all *.pyc files from source distribution (issue 2386) - Update to Scrapy 1.2.1 * Bug fixes + Include OpenSSL’s more permissive default ciphers when establishing TLS/SSL connections (issue 2314). + Fix “Location” HTTP header decoding on non-ASCII URL redirects (issue 2321). * Documentation + Fix JsonWriterPipeline example (issue 2302). + Various notes: issue 2330 on spider names, issue 2329 on middleware methods processing order, issue 2327 on getting multi-valued HTTP headers as lists. * Other changes + Removed www. from start_urls in built-in spider templates (issue 2299). - Update to Scrapy 1.2.0 * New Features + New FEED_EXPORT_ENCODING setting to customize the encoding used when writing items to a file.

Warning: this is technically backwards incompatible, though we consider this a bug fix. + Selector does not allow passing both response and text anymore (issue 2153). + Fixed logging of wrong callback name with scrapy parse (issue 2169). + Fix for an odd gzip decompression bug (issue 1606). + Fix for selected callbacks when using CrawlSpider with scrapy parse (issue 2225). + Fix for invalid JSON and XML files when spider yields no items (issue 872). + Implement flush() fpr StreamLogger avoiding a warning in logs (issue 2125). * Refactoring + canonicalize_url has been moved to w3lib.url (issue 2168). * Documentation + Grammar fixes: issue 2128, issue 1566. + Download stats badge removed from README (issue 2160). + New scrapy architecture diagram (issue 2165). + Updated Response parameters documentation (issue 2197). + Reworded misleading RANDOMIZE_DOWNLOAD_DELAY description (issue 2190). + Add StackOverflow as a support channel (issue 2257). - Update to Scrapy 1.1.4 * Packaging fix: disallow unsupported Twisted versions in setup.py - Update to Scrapy 1.1.3 * Bug fixes + Class attributes for subclasses of ImagesPipeline and FilesPipeline work as they did before 1.1.1 (issue 2243, fixes issue 2198) * Documentation + Overview and tutorial rewritten to use http://toscrape.com websites (issue 2236, issue 2249, issue 2252). - Update to Scrapy 1.1.2 * Bug fixes + Introduce a missing IMAGES_STORE_S3_ACL setting to override the default ACL policy in ImagesPipeline when uploading images to S3 (note that default ACL policy is “private” – instead of “public-read” – since Scrapy 1.1.0) + IMAGES_EXPIRES default value set back to 90 (the regression was introduced in 1.1.1) - Update to Scrapy 1.1.1 * Bug fixes + Add “Host” header in CONNECT requests to HTTPS proxies (issue 2069) + Use response body when choosing response class (issue 2001, fixes issue 2000) + Do not fail on canonicalizing URLs with wrong netlocs (issue 2038, fixes issue 2010) + a few fixes for HttpCompressionMiddleware (and SitemapSpider): - Do not decode HEAD responses (issue 2008, fixes issue 1899) - Handle charset parameter in gzip Content-Type header (issue 2050, fixes issue 2049) - Do not decompress gzip octet-stream responses (issue 2065, fixes issue 2063) + Catch (and ignore with a warning) exception when verifying certificate against IP-address hosts (issue 2094, fixes issue 2092) + Make FilesPipeline and ImagesPipeline backward compatible again regarding the use of legacy class attributes for customization (issue 1989, fixes issue 1985) * New features + Enable genspider command outside project folder (issue 2052) + Retry HTTPS CONNECT TunnelError by default (issue 1974) * Documentation + FEED_TEMPDIR setting at lexicographical position (commit 9b3c72c) + Use idiomatic .extract_first() in overview (issue 1994) + Update years in copyright notice (commit c2c8036) + Add information and example on errbacks (issue 1995) + Use “url” variable in downloader middleware example (issue 2015) + Grammar fixes (issue 2054, issue 2120) + New FAQ entry on using BeautifulSoup in spider callbacks (issue 2048) + Add notes about scrapy not working on Windows with Python 3 (issue 2060) + Encourage complete titles in pull requests (issue 2026) * Tests + Upgrade py.test requirement on Travis CI and Pin pytest-cov to 2.2.1 (issue 2095) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Mar 29 04:51:03 UTC 2017 - jacobwinski@gmail.com - Update spec file: change python-pyasn1 to python2-pyasn1 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Sun Jun 5 05:27:31 UTC 2016 - jacobwinski@gmail.com - Cleanup spec file - Add Conflicts: python3-Scrapy since now Scrapy supports Python 3 and both create identically named executables ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Jun 2 19:22:04 UTC 2016 - jacobwinski@gmail.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 <button> elements too (issue 1469). - an empty string is now used for submit buttons without a value (issue 1472) + Dict-like settings now have per-key priorities (issue 1135, issue 1149 and issue 1586). + Sending non-ASCII emails (issue 1662) + CloseSpider and SpiderState extensions now get disabled if no relevant setting is set (issue 1723, issue 1725). + Added method ExecutionEngine.close (issue 1423). + Added method CrawlerRunner.create_crawler (issue 1528). + Scheduler priority queue can now be customized via SCHEDULER_PRIORITY_QUEUE (issue 1822). + .pps links are now ignored by default in link extractors (issue 1835). + temporary data folder for FTP and S3 feed storages can be customized using a new FEED_TEMPDIR setting (issue 1847). + FilesPipeline and ImagesPipeline settings are now instance attributes instead of class attributes, enabling spider-specific behaviors (issue 1891). + JsonItemExporter now formats opening and closing square brackets on their own line (first and last lines of output file) (issue 1950). + If available, botocore is used for S3FeedStorage, S3DownloadHandler and S3FilesStore (issue 1761, issue 1883). + Tons of documentation updates and related fixes (issue 1291, issue 1302, issue 1335, issue 1683, issue 1660, issue 1642, issue 1721, issue 1727, issue 1879). + Other refactoring, optimizations and cleanup (issue 1476, issue 1481, issue 1477, issue 1315, issue 1290, issue 1750, issue 1881). * Deprecations and Removals: + Added to_bytes and to_unicode, deprecated str_to_unicode and unicode_to_str functions (issue 778). + binary_is_text is introduced, to replace use of isbinarytext (but with inverse return value) (issue 1851) + The optional_features set has been removed (issue 1359). + The --lsprof command line option has been removed (issue 1689). Warning: backward incompatible, but doesn’t break user code. + The following datatypes were deprecated (issue 1720): - scrapy.utils.datatypes.MultiValueDictKeyError - scrapy.utils.datatypes.MultiValueDict - scrapy.utils.datatypes.SiteNode + The previously bundled scrapy.xlib.pydispatch library was deprecated and replaced by pydispatcher. * Relocations: + telnetconsole was relocated to extensions/ (issue 1524). - Note: telnet is not enabled on Python 3 (https://github.com/scrapy/scrapy/pull/1524#issuecomment-146985595) * Bugfixes: + Scrapy does not retry requests that got a HTTP 400 Bad Request response anymore (issue 1289).

This improves default logging by making log more readable in the default case, for both Scraped and Dropped lines. - Added spider_error signal (r2628) - Added COOKIES_ENABLED setting (r2625) - Stats are now dumped to Scrapy log (default value of STATS_DUMP setting has been changed to True). This is to make Scrapy users more aware of Scrapy stats and the data that is collected there. - Added support for dynamically adjusting download delay and maximum concurrent requests (r2599) - Added new DBM HTTP cache storage backend (r2576) - Added listjobs.json API to Scrapyd (r2571) - CsvItemExporter: added join_multivalued parameter (r2578) - Added namespace support to xmliter_lxml (r2552) - Improved cookies middleware by making COOKIES_DEBUG nicer and documenting it (r2579) - Several improvements to Scrapyd and Link extractors - Code rearranged and removed - Merged item passed and item scraped concepts, as they have often proved confusing in the past. This means: (r2630) - original item_scraped signal was removed - original item_passed signal was renamed to item_scraped - old log lines Scraped Item... were removed - old log lines Passed Item... were renamed to Scraped Item... lines and downgraded to DEBUG level - Reduced Scrapy codebase by striping part of Scrapy code into two new libraries: - w3lib (several functions from scrapy.utils.{http,markup,multipart,response,url}, done in r2584) - scrapely (was scrapy.contrib.ibl, done in r2586) - Removed unused function: scrapy.utils.request.request_info() (r2577) - Removed googledir project from examples/googledir. There's now a new example project called dirbot available on github: https://github.com/scrapy/dirbot - Removed support for default field values in Scrapy items (r2616) - Removed experimental crawlspider v2 (r2632) - Removed scheduler middleware to simplify architecture. Duplicates filter is now done in the scheduler itself, using the same dupe fltering class as before (DUPEFILTER_CLASS setting) (r2640) - Removed support for passing urls to scrapy crawl command (use scrapy parse instead) (r2704) - Removed deprecated Execution Queue (r2704) - Removed (undocumented) spider context extension (from scrapy.contrib.spidercontext) (r2780) - removed CONCURRENT_SPIDERS setting (use scrapyd maxproc instead) (r2789) - Renamed attributes of core components: downloader.sites -> downloader.slots, scraper.sites -> scraper.slots (r2717, r2718) - Renamed setting CLOSESPIDER_ITEMPASSED to CLOSESPIDER_ITEMCOUNT (r2655). Backwards compatibility kept. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Mar 10 06:21:01 UTC 2011 - jfunk@funktronics.ca - Initial release
