Scrapyd is a service daemon for deploying and running Scrapy spiders. It lets you upload Scrapy projects and control spiders via a JSON HTTP API.

Use cases

  • deploy scrapy spiders to a server
  • run web scraping jobs on a schedule
  • control scrapy spiders via http api
  • manage multiple scrapy projects remotely
  • queue and monitor scraping jobs

When to choose

  • you already use Scrapy and need centralized spider deployment and execution
  • you want a lightweight self-hosted JSON API to schedule and monitor scraping jobs

When to avoid

  • you need a full scraping orchestration platform with dashboards and distributed workers
  • you scrape with tools other than Scrapy
