scrapy-splash icon indicating copy to clipboard operation
scrapy-splash copied to clipboard

Skill entry level is too high for a newbie, readme should be reviewed and simplified

My issue is simple, I don't know how to use this cause :

  • Readme is not implicit and precise enough at the configuration part and everything is too separated to understand a bigger picture at once, IE. where to create settings.py and why I even need that, there are some partial example codes that aren't working alone and even interfering with each other when user is trying to go step by step, etc, so :
  • There are no example files to just copy-paste it and to have an instantly working scheme to build something on the top of it.

It may be a hint: check how puppeteer has its docs and readme written if you want to attract more users.

When you create a scrapy project, a settings file is already there. Scrapy-splash is supposed to be an addition for a scrapy project.
