Stats Collection
================
Scrapy provides a convenient facility for collecting stats in the form of
key/values, where values are often counters. The facility is called the Stats
Collector, and can be accessed through the :attr:`~scrapy.crawler.Crawler.stats`
attribute of the :ref:`topics-api-crawler`, as illustrated by the examples in
the :ref:`topics-stats-usecases` section below.
The Stats Collector API is always available, so you can always use it (to
increment or set new stat keys), regardless
of whether the stats collection is enabled or not. If it's disabled, the API
will still work but it won't collect anything. This is aimed at simplifying the
stats collector usage: you should spend no more than one line of code for
collecting stats in your spider, Scrapy extension, or whatever code you're
using the Stats Collector from.
Another feature of the Stats Collector is that it's very efficient (when
enabled) and extremely efficient (almost unnoticeable) when disabled.
See :ref:`topics-stats-reference` below for the stats that Scrapy sets.
.. _topics-stats-usecases:
Common Stats Collector uses
===========================
Access the stats collector through the :attr:`~scrapy.crawler.Crawler.stats`
attribute. Here is an example of an extension that access stats:
.. code-block:: python
class ExtensionThatAccessStats:
def __init__(self, stats):
self.stats = stats
@classmethod
def from_crawler(cls, crawler):
return cls(crawler.stats)
.. skip: start
Set stat value:
.. code-block:: python
stats.set_value("hostname", socket.gethostname())
Increment stat value:
.. code-block:: python
stats.inc_value("custom_count")
Set stat value only if greater than previous:
.. code-block:: python
stats.max_value("max_items_scraped", value)
Set stat value only if lower than previous:
.. code-block:: python
stats.min_value("min_free_memory_percent", value)
Get stat value:
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> stats.get_value("custom_count")
1
Get all stats:
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> stats.get_stats()
{'custom_count': 1, 'start_time': datetime.datetime(2009, 7, 14, 21, 47, 28, 977139)}
.. skip: end
Available Stats Collectors
==========================
.. currentmodule:: scrapy.statscollectors
Besides the basic :class:`StatsCollector` there are other Stats Collectors
available in Scrapy which extend the basic Stats Collector. You can select
which Stats Collector to use through the :setting:`STATS_CLASS` setting. The
default Stats Collector used is the :class:`MemoryStatsCollector`.
MemoryStatsCollector

.. autoclass:: DummyStatsCollector
.. _topics-stats-reference:
Built-in stats reference
========================
Scrapy sets the following :ref:`stats <topics-stats>`. Components other than
those built into Scrapy may set additional stats; see their documentation.
Stat keys that contain a ``{placeholder}`` below stand for a family of stats,
one per actual value of the placeholder.
.. note:: Most stats are set by a specific :ref:`component
<topics-components>`, and are only present if that component is enabled and
its code path is reached. A stat that is missing from
:meth:`~scrapy.statscollectors.StatsCollector.get_stats` output is
equivalent to a counter of 0.
.. stat:: depth/request_ignored_count
``depth/request_ignored_count``
Number of requests dropped for exceeding :setting:`DEPTH_LIMIT`.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.spidermiddlewares.depth.DepthMiddleware`.
.. stat:: downloader/exception_count
``downloader/exception_count``
Number of exceptions raised while downloading requests.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.stats.DownloaderStats`.
.. stat:: downloader/exception_type_count/{exception_type}
``downloader/exception_type_count/{exception_type}``
Number of exceptions raised while downloading requests, per exception type,
where ``{exception_type}`` is the import path of the exception class, e.g.
``twisted.internet.error.DNSLookupError``.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.stats.DownloaderStats`.
.. stat:: downloader/request_bytes
``downloader/request_bytes``
Total size, in bytes, of the requests sent, counting the request line, the
headers and the body. As with :stat:`downloader/request_count`, requests
served from the cache are also counted.
It is an approximation, reconstructed from each :class:`~scrapy.Request`
object instead of measured on the wire, so it does not account for the
actual bytes that the :ref:`download handler
<topics-download-handlers>` sends, e.g. transport-level overhead.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.stats.DownloaderStats`.
.. stat:: downloader/request_count
``downloader/request_count``
Number of requests sent.
Requests that :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcache.HttpCacheMiddleware`
serves from the cache are also counted, even though they are never sent,
because it handles requests after
:class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.stats.DownloaderStats`.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.stats.DownloaderStats`.
.. stat:: downloader/request_method_count/{method}
``downloader/request_method_count/{method}``
Number of requests sent, per HTTP method, e.g. ``GET`` or ``POST``. As with
:stat:`downloader/request_count`, requests served from the cache are also
counted.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.stats.DownloaderStats`.
.. stat:: downloader/response_bytes
``downloader/response_bytes``
Total size, in bytes, of the responses received, counting the status line,
the headers and the body. It covers the same responses as
:stat:`downloader/response_count`.
The body is counted as received, i.e. still compressed for responses that
used ``Content-Encoding``, because
:class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.stats.DownloaderStats` handles
responses before
:class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcompression.HttpCompressionMiddleware`
decompresses them. See :stat:`httpcompression/response_bytes` for
decompressed sizes.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.stats.DownloaderStats`.
.. stat:: downloader/response_count
``downloader/response_count``
Number of responses received.
It counts responses that :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcache.HttpCacheMiddleware`
serves from the cache, even though they do not come from the network, and
responses that a downloader middleware consumes before they reach your
spider, e.g. redirect responses that :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.redirect.RedirectMiddleware`
turns into new requests. Compare with :stat:`response_received_count`.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.stats.DownloaderStats`.
.. stat:: downloader/response_status_count/{status_code}
``downloader/response_status_count/{status_code}``
Number of responses received, per HTTP status code, e.g. ``200`` or
``404``. It covers the same responses as :stat:`downloader/response_count`.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.stats.DownloaderStats`.
.. stat:: dupefilter/filtered
``dupefilter/filtered``
Number of requests dropped as duplicates.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.dupefilters.RFPDupeFilter`.
.. stat:: elapsed_time_seconds
``elapsed_time_seconds``
Time, as a :class:`float`, in seconds, between the :signal:`spider_opened`
and the :signal:`spider_closed` signals.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.extensions.corestats.CoreStats`.
.. stat:: feedexport/failed_count/{storage}
``feedexport/failed_count/{storage}``
Number of :ref:`feeds <topics-feed-exports>` that could not be stored, per
:ref:`storage backend <topics-feed-storage-backends>`, where ``{storage}``
is the class name of the storage backend, e.g. ``FileFeedStorage``.
.. stat:: feedexport/success_count/{storage}
``feedexport/success_count/{storage}``
Number of :ref:`feeds <topics-feed-exports>` stored successfully, per
:ref:`storage backend <topics-feed-storage-backends>`, where ``{storage}``
is the class name of the storage backend, e.g. ``FileFeedStorage``.
.. stat:: file_count
``file_count``
Number of files handled by the :ref:`media pipelines
<topics-media-pipeline>`.
.. stat:: file_status_count/{status}
``file_status_count/{status}``
Number of files handled by the :ref:`media pipelines
<topics-media-pipeline>`, per status, where ``{status}`` is one of:
- ``downloaded``: the file was downloaded.
- ``cached``: the file came from the
:class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcache.HttpCacheMiddleware`
cache.
- ``uptodate``: the file was already in the storage backend and had not
:ref:`expired <file-expiration>`, so it was not downloaded again.
.. stat:: finish_reason
``finish_reason``
String indicating why the crawl finished. It matches the *reason* argument
of the :signal:`spider_closed` signal.
Scrapy uses the following reasons:
- ``cancelled``: the spider was closed without a more specific reason,
e.g. because :exc:`~scrapy.exceptions.CloseSpider` was raised without
one.
- ``closespider_errorcount``: see :setting:`CLOSESPIDER_ERRORCOUNT`.
- ``closespider_itemcount``: see :setting:`CLOSESPIDER_ITEMCOUNT`.
- ``closespider_pagecount``: see :setting:`CLOSESPIDER_PAGECOUNT`.
- ``closespider_pagecount_no_item``: see
:setting:`CLOSESPIDER_PAGECOUNT_NO_ITEM`.
- ``closespider_timeout``: see :setting:`CLOSESPIDER_TIMEOUT`.
- ``closespider_timeout_no_item``: see
:setting:`CLOSESPIDER_TIMEOUT_NO_ITEM`.
- ``finished``: the spider became idle with no pending requests, i.e. it
finished normally.
- ``memusage_exceeded``: see :setting:`MEMUSAGE_LIMIT_MB`.
- ``shutdown``: the crawl was interrupted, e.g. by a system signal such
as ``SIGINT`` (:kbd:`Ctrl-C`).
- ``start_error``: :meth:`~scrapy.Spider.start` raised an exception, so
some :ref:`start requests <start-requests>` may never have been sent,
see :ref:`start-error`.
Third-party components and your own code may use any other reason, e.g. by
raising :exc:`~scrapy.exceptions.CloseSpider` with it.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.extensions.corestats.CoreStats`.
.. stat:: finish_time
``finish_time``
Timezone-aware :class:`~datetime.datetime` object, in UTC, indicating when
the :signal:`spider_closed` signal was sent.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.extensions.corestats.CoreStats`.
.. stat:: httpcache/errorrecovery
``httpcache/errorrecovery``
Number of times that a stale cached response was used because downloading a
fresh response raised an exception.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcache.HttpCacheMiddleware`.
.. stat:: httpcache/firsthand
``httpcache/firsthand``
Number of responses that were downloaded without a matching cache entry to
validate against, i.e. responses for requests counted in
:stat:`httpcache/miss`.
It is lower than :stat:`httpcache/miss` when some of those requests yield
no response, either because they are dropped (see
:stat:`httpcache/ignore`) or because their download fails.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcache.HttpCacheMiddleware`.
.. stat:: httpcache/hit
``httpcache/hit``
Number of requests served from the cache.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcache.HttpCacheMiddleware`.
.. stat:: httpcache/ignore
``httpcache/ignore``
Number of requests dropped because they were not in the cache and
:setting:`HTTPCACHE_IGNORE_MISSING` is ``True``.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcache.HttpCacheMiddleware`.
.. stat:: httpcache/invalidate
``httpcache/invalidate``
Number of times that a cached response failed validation and was replaced
with a freshly downloaded response.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcache.HttpCacheMiddleware`.
.. stat:: httpcache/miss
``httpcache/miss``
Number of requests for which no cache entry could be read, either because
there was none or because reading it failed, in which case the request is
also counted in :stat:`httpcache/retrieve_error`. Those requests are
downloaded (see :stat:`httpcache/firsthand`), or dropped if
:setting:`HTTPCACHE_IGNORE_MISSING` is ``True`` (see
:stat:`httpcache/ignore`).
Requests with a stale cache entry are not counted here; see
:stat:`httpcache/revalidate` and :stat:`httpcache/invalidate`.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcache.HttpCacheMiddleware`.
.. stat:: httpcache/retrieve_error
``httpcache/retrieve_error``
Number of cache entries that could not be read, and hence were treated as
cache misses. Those requests are also counted in :stat:`httpcache/miss`.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcache.HttpCacheMiddleware`.
.. stat:: httpcache/revalidate
``httpcache/revalidate``
Number of times that a cached response was successfully validated against
the target server, and hence used instead of the fresh response.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcache.HttpCacheMiddleware`.
.. stat:: httpcache/store
``httpcache/store``
Number of responses stored in the cache.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcache.HttpCacheMiddleware`.
.. stat:: httpcache/uncacheable
``httpcache/uncacheable``
Number of responses not stored in the cache because the
:setting:`HTTPCACHE_POLICY` did not allow it.
Every response considered for caching is counted either here or in
:stat:`httpcache/store`, so ``httpcache/store + httpcache/uncacheable``
equals ``httpcache/firsthand + httpcache/invalidate``.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcache.HttpCacheMiddleware`.
.. stat:: httpcompression/response_bytes
``httpcompression/response_bytes``
Total size, in bytes, of decompressed response bodies, counting only the
body and only responses that were actually decompressed. Compare with
:stat:`downloader/response_bytes`.
Set by
:class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcompression.HttpCompressionMiddleware`.
.. stat:: httpcompression/response_count
``httpcompression/response_count``
Number of decompressed responses.
Set by
:class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcompression.HttpCompressionMiddleware`.
.. stat:: httperror/response_ignored_count
``httperror/response_ignored_count``
Number of responses dropped because of their HTTP status code.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.spidermiddlewares.httperror.HttpErrorMiddleware`.
.. stat:: httperror/response_ignored_status_count/{status_code}
``httperror/response_ignored_status_count/{status_code}``
Number of responses dropped because of their HTTP status code, per HTTP
status code, e.g. ``404``.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.spidermiddlewares.httperror.HttpErrorMiddleware`.
.. stat:: item_dropped_count
``item_dropped_count``
Number of items dropped by an :ref:`item pipeline
<topics-item-pipeline>`, i.e. number of times that the
:signal:`item_dropped` signal was sent.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.extensions.corestats.CoreStats`.
.. stat:: item_dropped_reasons_count/{exception}
``item_dropped_reasons_count/{exception}``
Number of items dropped, per exception, where ``{exception}`` is the class
name of the exception that caused the item to be dropped.
Only :exc:`~scrapy.exceptions.DropItem` and its subclasses drop items, and
each one is counted under its own class name, e.g.
``item_dropped_reasons_count/DropItem`` for
:exc:`~scrapy.exceptions.DropItem` itself and
``item_dropped_reasons_count/MyDropItem`` for a ``MyDropItem`` subclass of
it. Any other exception raised by an :ref:`item pipeline
<topics-item-pipeline>` triggers the :signal:`item_error` signal instead of
:signal:`item_dropped`, and is not counted here or in
:stat:`item_dropped_count`.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.extensions.corestats.CoreStats`.
.. stat:: item_scraped_count
``item_scraped_count``
Number of items that passed all :ref:`item pipelines
<topics-item-pipeline>`, i.e. number of times that the
:signal:`item_scraped` signal was sent.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.extensions.corestats.CoreStats`.
.. stat:: items_per_minute
``items_per_minute``
Average number of items scraped per minute during the crawl.
It is ``None`` if the crawl took less than a minute.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.extensions.logstats.LogStats`.
.. stat:: log_count/{level}

Number of log messages, per logging level name, e.g. ``INFO`` or
``WARNING``.
Only messages that the :setting:`LOG_LEVEL` setting allows are counted.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.extensions.logcount.LogCount`.
.. stat:: memdebug/gc_garbage_count
``memdebug/gc_garbage_count``
Number of objects in :data:`gc.garbage` when the spider is closed.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.extensions.memdebug.MemoryDebugger`, which requires
:setting:`MEMDEBUG_ENABLED` to be ``True``.
.. stat:: memdebug/live_refs/{cls}
``memdebug/live_refs/{cls}``
Number of live objects of class ``{cls}`` when the spider is closed, as
reported by :ref:`trackref <topics-leaks-trackrefs>`, e.g.
``memdebug/live_refs/HtmlResponse``.
Only set for classes with at least 1 live object.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.extensions.memdebug.MemoryDebugger`, which requires
:setting:`MEMDEBUG_ENABLED` to be ``True``.
.. stat:: memusage/limit_reached
``memusage/limit_reached``
``1`` if memory usage exceeded :setting:`MEMUSAGE_LIMIT_MB`, which also
stops the crawl.

``1`` if memory usage exceeded :setting:`MEMUSAGE_WARNING_MB`.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.extensions.memusage.MemoryUsage`.
.. stat:: offsite/domains
``offsite/domains``

being offsite.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.offsite.OffsiteMiddleware`.
.. stat:: offsite/filtered
``offsite/filtered``
Number of requests dropped for being offsite.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.offsite.OffsiteMiddleware`.
.. stat:: request_depth_count/{depth}
``request_depth_count/{depth}``
Number of requests scheduled at depth ``{depth}``, e.g.
``request_depth_count/2``.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.spidermiddlewares.depth.DepthMiddleware`, which
requires :setting:`DEPTH_STATS_VERBOSE` to be ``True`` for this stat.
.. stat:: request_depth_max
``request_depth_max``
Maximum depth reached.
Set by :class:`~scrapy.spidermiddlewares.depth.DepthMiddleware`.
.. stat:: response_received_count
``response_received_count``
Number of responses received, i.e. number of times that the
:signal:`response_received` signal was sent.
Unlike :stat:`downloader/response_count`, it does not count responses that
a downloader middleware consumes before they reach the engine, e.g.
redirect responses that :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.redirect.RedirectMiddleware`
turns into new requests. Both count responses that :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpcache.HttpCacheMiddleware`
serves from the cache.

.. stat:: retry/reason_count/{reason}
``retry/reason_count/{reason}``
Number of requests retried, per reason, e.g.
``retry/reason_count/twisted.internet.error.TimeoutError`` or
``retry/reason_count/504 Gateway Time-out``.
Set by :func:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.retry.get_retry_request`, which
:class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.retry.RetryMiddleware` uses.
.. note:: Code calling
:func:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.retry.get_retry_request` may pass a
custom *stats_base_key*, in which case ``retry`` is replaced with that key
in the 3 stats above.
.. stat:: robotstxt/exception_count/{exception_type}
``robotstxt/exception_count/{exception_type}``
Number of exceptions raised while downloading ``robots.txt`` files, per
exception type, where ``{exception_type}`` is the string representation of
