A Python web crawler for Sina Weibo (Chinese microblog) built on Scrapy, with three versions: a standalone spider, a distributed version using scrapy_redis, and an improved version with cookie pool maintenance. It handles login captcha solving via manual input or paid captcha services.

Use cases

  • scrape weibo posts at scale
  • build a distributed weibo crawler
  • collect sina weibo data for research
  • crawl weibo user profiles
  • maintain a cookie pool for weibo scraping

When to choose

  • you need to scrape Sina Weibo data in bulk
  • you want a reference implementation of a distributed Scrapy-Redis crawler
  • you're studying how cookie pools and dedup queues work in crawlers

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained, working crawler today - Weibo's anti-scraping has changed since 2017
  • you want a project with a license or active support
  • you're scraping platforms other than Weibo
