Set headers for scrapy shell request

[Twirl]

scrapy shell -s USER_AGENT='custom user agent' 'http://www.example.com' works for setting the USER_AGENT but how do you set the headers?

Thanks

Hey, I'm not sure how you could do it through the command line. But you can do it inside the scrapy shell:

>>> req = scrapy.Request('http://example.com', headers={'Referer': 'bla bla'})

>>> fetch(req)
