Djangoitem in scrapy

Question

Hi i typed in the command

from scrapy.contrib.djangoitem import DjangoItem

in the scrapy shell and it gave me the following error.

In [1]: from scrapy.contrib.djangoitem import DjangoItem
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)
/home/abhishek/<ipython-input-1-3b57a31ce938> in <module>()
----> 1 from scrapy.contrib.djangoitem import DjangoItem

ImportError: No module named djangoitem

What would have been the issue?

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

It is an external package

pip install scrapy-djangoitem

Answer 2

This is now moved to another package called scrapy_djangoitem
