Web Scraping 2.0: Scrapy & Google Colab - The Future of Web Scraping

I got an error.ReactorNotRestartable(). The Crawler Process doesn't seem to allow rerunning a spider in the same notebook multiple times. Have you tried any workaround?

In async you need to add task to existing task group i haven’t tested it yet but you can try adding task in the loop.

@@ScrapingNinja I tried !scrapy runspider spidername. It works and allows rerunning it.

Hey Bro! I am a beginner and I am getting different errors. Nobody taught me to handle those errors (particularly IP blocking) and I am getting different responses. Can you help me?

@@ScrapingNinja Bro I am talking about general problems which every person encounters such as captchas, IP blocking etc. Kindly make a video regarding how to prevent IP blocking for beginners using tools such as selenium and bs4 and show bypassing in a easy way! Also please make a video on how to bypass bot detection and captchas. I have searched for it everywhere, I am getting the related tutorials but of no use because I am a beginner and they aren't teaching for beginners. So waiting for your kind response.
