python - spider_closed function is not fired -

i want log data when spider finishes working.

i make function inside spider.

def spider_closed(self, spider):         log.msg('the spider {0} finished working on'.format(self.name), level=log.info) 

but function not getting fired.

i using scrapy 0.20 python 2.7

please note can log log , logging lot of data can see in log file. logging working me.

edit

i guess have dispatch signal signals.spider_closed don't know how that.

you should attach method receiver signalmanager signal dispatcher:

from scrapy.xlib.pydispatch import dispatcher scrapy import signals  class myspider(spider):     def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):         dispatcher.connect(self.spider_closed, signal=signals.spider_closed)         super(myspider, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)      def spider_closed(self, spider):         log.msg('the spider {0} finished working on'.format(self.name), level=log.info)
