Scrapy
Scrapy ( SKRAY-peye) is a free and open-source web-crawling framework written in Python. Originally designed for web scraping, it can also be used to extract data using APIs or as a general-purpose web crawler. It is currently maintained by Zyte (formerly Scrapinghub), a web-scraping development and services company.
Scrapy project architecture is built around "spiders", which are self-contained crawlers that are given a set of instructions. Following the spirit of other don't repeat yourself frameworks, such as Django, it makes it easier to build and scale large crawling projects by allowing developers to reuse their code.
Some well-known companies and products using Scrapy are: Lyst, Parse.ly, Sayone Technologies, Sciences Po Medialab, Data.gov.uk’s World Government Data site.
