Installation

Spidermon’s core functionality is pretty basic and it provides some features that allow you to build your monitors on top of it. Spidermon doesn’t have any dependencies other than six. However, for most production projects you will need some additional libraries in order to send notifications and to validate the output data produced by Scrapy.

The recommended way to install the library is by adding the additional monitoring and validation dependencies:

pip install git+ssh://git@github.com/scrapinghub/spidermon.git#egg=spidermon[monitoring,validation]
