Please refer to the full documentation for more detailed usage but to get you started:
>>> from scrapyd_api import ScrapydAPI
>>> scrapyd = ScrapydAPI('http://localhost:6800')Add a project egg as a new version:
>>> egg = open('some_egg.egg', 'rb')
>>> scrapyd.add_version('project_name', 'version_name', egg)
# Returns the number of spiders in the project.
3
>>> egg.close()Cancel a scheduled job:
>>> scrapyd.cancel('project_name', '14a6599ef67111e38a0e080027880ca6')
# Returns the "previous state" of the job before it was cancelled: 'running' or 'pending'.
'running'Delete a project and all sibling versions:
>>> scrapyd.delete_project('project_name')
# Returns True if the request was met with an OK response.
TrueDelete a version of a project:
>>> scrapyd.delete_version('project_name', 'version_name')
# Returns True if the request was met with an OK response.
TrueRequest status of a job:
>>> scrapyd.job_status('project_name', '14a6599ef67111e38a0e080027880ca6')
# Returns 'running', 'pending', 'finished' or '' for unknown state.
'running'List all jobs registered:
>>> scrapyd.list_jobs('project_name')
# Returns a dictionary of running, finished and pending job lists.
