Scrapy image download how to use custom filename

Question

For my scrapy project I\'m currently using the ImagesPipeline. The downloaded images are stored with a SHA1 hash of their URLs as the file names.

How can I s

Answer 1

I found my way in 2017,scrapy 1.1.3

def file_path(self, request, response=None, info=None):
    return request.meta.get('filename','')

def get_media_requests(self, item, info):
    img_url = item['img_url']
    meta = {'filename': item['name']}
    yield Request(url=img_url, meta=meta)

like the code above,you can add the name you want to a Request meta in get_media_requests(), and get it back in file_path() by request.meta.get('yourname','').
