首先來看scrapy的架構圖。

middleware是全域性的。

scrapy的預設User-agent是scrapy，如下圖所示

這種使用者代理很容易被服務端識別出來，然後封殺掉。官方文件提供這種方式來取消掉預設user-agent。

接下來就是定義自己的middleware，根據官方文件，需要過載以下三個函式。

Github上有一個fake-useragent專案。

middleware.py

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

# Define here the models for your spider middleware
#
# See documentation in:
# http://doc.scrapy.org/en/latest/topics/spider-middleware.html

from scrapy import signals
from fake_useragent import UserAgent

class ArticlespiderSpiderMiddleware(object):
    # Not all methods need to be defined. If a method is not defined,
    # scrapy acts as if the spider middleware does not modify the
    # passed objects.

    @classmethod
    def from_crawler(cls, crawler):
        # This method is used by Scrapy to create your spiders.
        s = cls()
        crawler.signals.connect(s.spider_opened, signal=signals.spider_opened)
        return s

    def process_spider_input(self, response, spider):
        # Called for each response that goes through the spider
        # middleware and into the spider.

        # Should return None or raise an exception.
        return None

    def process_spider_output(self, response, result, spider):
        # Called with the results returned from the Spider, after
        # it has processed the response.

        # Must return an iterable of Request, dict or Item objects.
        for i in result:
            yield i

    def process_spider_exception(self, response, exception, spider):
        # Called when a spider or process_spider_input() method
        # (from other spider middleware) raises an exception.

        # Should return either None or an iterable of Response, dict
        # or Item objects.
        pass

    def process_start_requests(self, start_requests, spider):
        # Called with the start requests of the spider, and works
        # similarly to the process_spider_output() method, except
        # that it doesn’t have a response associated.

        # Must return only requests (not items).
        for r in start_requests:
            yield r

    def spider_opened(self, spider):
        spider.logger.info('Spider opened: %s' % spider.name)


class RandomUserAgentMiddleware(object):
    #隨機更換user-agent
    def __init__(self, crawler):
        super(RandomUserAgentMiddleware, self).__init__()
        self.ua = UserAgent()
        self.ua_type = crawler.settings.get("RANDOM_UA_TYPE", "random")

    @classmethod
    def from_crawler(cls, crawler):
        return cls(crawler)

    def process_request(self, request, spider):

        def get_ua():
            return getattr(self.ua, self.ua_type)
        random_agent = get_ua()
        request.headers.setdefault('User-Agent', get_ua())




 

到此為止，隨機更換user_agent就完成了。
