+Item Exporters
+==============
+
+.. module:: scrapy.contrib.exporter
+   :synopsis: Item Exporters
+
+Once you have scraped your Items, you probably will want to use the data in some
+external application. For this purpose Scrapy provides simple Item Exporters
+that allow you to export your scraped Items in different formats.
+
+
+Using Item Exporters
+====================
+
+In order to use a Item Exporter, you  must instantiate it with its required args
+(different exporters require different args in order to work, look at the
+reference of the specific Item Exporter in :ref:`topics-exporters-reference` )
+then call the :meth:`~BaseItemExporter.export` method with the item to export as
+its argument.
+
+Here you can see a typical Item Exporter usage in a :ref:`Item Pipeline
+<topics-item-pipeline>`::
+
+   from scrapy.xlib.pydispatch import dispatcher
+   from scrapy.contrib.exporter.jsonexporter import JSONItemExporter
+
+
+   class ProductJSONPipeline(object):
+       def __init__(self):
+           dispatcher.connect(self.domain_open, signals.domain_open) 
+           dispatcher.connect(self.domain_closed, signals.domain_closed)
+
+       def domain_open(self, domain):
+           self.file = open('%s_products.json' % domain)
+           self.exporter = JSONItemExporter(self.file)
+
+       def domain_closed(self, domain):
+           self.file.close()
+
+       def process_item(self, domain, item):
+           self.exporter.export(item)
+           return item
+
+
+.. _topics-exporters-field-serialization:
+
+Field serialization
+===================
+
+By default each field is serialized to its string representation using the 
+:meth:`~BaseItemExporter._default_serializer` method.
+
+You can customize how a field will be serialized in two ways:
+
+1. Providing a ``serialize_(field-name)`` method in your custom Item Exporter.
+2. Implementing a ``serializer`` method in a custom Field of your Item.
+
+.. note:: This is the order of precedence, so if you provide both, the custom
+   serialize_(field-name) method in the Item Exporter will be used.
+
+In any case, your method must accept the same parameters as the
+:meth:`~BaseItemExporter._default_serializer` method and return the serialized
+version of the field in a string format.  
+
+Let's see some examples on using the methods described above:
+
+1. Providing a ``serialize_price`` method::
+
+      from scrapy.contrib.exporter.jsonexporter import JSONItemExporter
+
+      class ProductJSONExporter(JSONItemExporter):
+          def serialize_price(self, field, name, value):
+              return '$ %s' % str(value)
+             
+2. Using a custom ``PriceField``::
+
+      from scrapy.newitem import Item, Field
+
+      class PriceField(Field):
+         def serializer(self, field, name, value):
+             return '$ %s' % str(value)
+
+      class Product(Item):
+          name = Field()
+          price = PriceField()
+          stock = Field(default=0)
+          last_updated = Field()

+
+Available Item Exporters
+========================
+
+BaseItemExporter
+----------------
+
+.. class:: BaseItemExporter
+
+   This is the base class for all Item Exporters.
+
+   .. method:: export(item)
+
+      Exports the item to the specific exporter format. Descendant classes must
+      override this method.
+
+   .. method:: _default_serializer(field, name, value)
+
+      Serializes the field, the base implementation returns it string
+      representation. You can override this in custom Item Exporters.
+
+
+PprintItemExporter
+------------------
+
+.. class:: PprintItemExporter(file)
+
+   Exports Items in preety print format to the specified file object.
+
+
+.. class:: PickleItemExporter(\*args, \**kwargs)
+
+   Exports Items in pickle format. The arguments in the constructor will be used
+   to construct a ``cPickle.Pickler`` object.
+
+
+CsvItemExporter
+---------------
+
+.. class:: CsvItemExporter(\*args, \**kwargs)
+
+   Exports Items in CSV format. The arguments in the constructor will be used to
+   construct a ``csv.writer`` object. You must also set its
+   :attr:`~CsvItemExporter.fields_to_export` attribute to use it.
+
+   .. attribute:: fields_to_export
+
+      Iterable containing the Item Field names to be exported.       
+
+
+XmlItemExporter
+---------------
+
+.. class:: XmlItemExporter(\*args, \**kwargs)
+
+   Exports Items in XML format to the specified file object. You must also set its
+   :attr:`~XmlItemExporter.fields_to_export` attribute to use it.
+
+   .. attribute:: root_element
+
+      The name of the root element in the exported file. It defaults to
+      ``items``.
+
+   .. attribute:: item_element
+
+      The name of each item element in the exported file. It defaults to
+      ``item``.
+
+   .. attribute:: include_empty_elements
+
+      Whether to include or not empty elements in the exported file. It defaults to
+      ``False``.
+
+   .. attribute:: fields_to_export
+
+      Iterable containing the Item Field names to be exported. 
+
+
+JSONItemExporter
+----------------
+
+.. class:: scrapy.contrib.exporter.jsonexporter.JsonItemExporter(file)
+
+   Exports Items in JSON format to the specified file object.
