Make Scrapy follow links and collect data

问题

I am trying to write program in Scrapy to open links and collect data from this tag: <p class="attrgroup"></p>.

I've managed to make Scrapy collect all the links from given URL but not to follow them. Any help is very appreciated.

You need to yield Request instances for the links to follow, assign a callback and extract the text of the desired p element in the callback:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import scrapy


# item class included here 
class DmozItem(scrapy.Item):
    # define the fields for your item here like:
    link = scrapy.Field()
    attr = scrapy.Field()


class DmozSpider(scrapy.Spider):
    name = "dmoz"
    allowed_domains = ["craigslist.org"]
    start_urls = [
    "http://chicago.craigslist.org/search/emd?"
    ]

    BASE_URL = 'http://chicago.craigslist.org/'

    def parse(self, response):
        links = response.xpath('//a[@class="hdrlnk"]/@href').extract()
        for link in links:
            absolute_url = self.BASE_URL + link
            yield scrapy.Request(absolute_url, callback=self.parse_attr)

    def parse_attr(self, response):
        item = DmozItem()
        item["link"] = response.url
        item["attr"] = "".join(response.xpath("//p[@class='attrgroup']//text()").extract())
        return item
