How to run scrapy with spider.py file created inside the scrapy project folder

[shiva krishna]

Hi i am working on scrapy,  i created a scrapy folder with `scrapy startproject example`

and written spider to scrape all the data from the url, and

I had run the spider using the command `scrapy crawl spider_name`, its working fine and able to fetch data. 

But i had a requirement that i need to run the scrapy with a single spider file created i mean a single py file something like

    pythpn -u /path/to/spider_file_inside_scrapy_folder_created.py

Is it possible to run a spider without `scrapy crawl` command after creating a scrapy project folder with spider.py file

You could make an .sh file (or .bat file for winlows).

example for .sh file

#!/bin/bash  

cd /path/to/your/scrapy/project

scrapy crawl [spider_name]

Have you tried the runspider command?

$ scrapy runspider /path/to/spider_file_inside_scrapy_folder_created.py
