How do I configure a Discord bot for Spidermon?¶
What are bots?¶
A bot is a type of Discord user designed to interact with users via conversation.
To work with Discord Actions, you will need a Discord webhook which would send notifications to Discord from Spidermon.
Steps¶
Create a Discord webhook <https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/webhook>`_.
Once your webhook is created, you will receive its URL. This is what we use for
SPIDERMON_DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL
.Add your Discord bot credential to your Scrapy project’s settings. That’s it.
# settings.py
SPIDERMON_DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL = "DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL"
