Pedro Faustino 5d3a4d755f Update downloader middleware documentation 2013-01-06 18:53:14 +00:00
Emanuel Schorsch f9b130da12 Proposed Changes 
I was very confused as to how you actually import DjangoItem.
I searched extensively on the internet looking for actual code so I could see how it worked.
I finally found http://blog.just2us.com/2012/07/setting-up-django-with-scrapy/. It is much easier to understand with full files instead of code fragments.
I also edited where it says "we can see that the model is already saved" as I don't see how it's already saved.
