Adding your company to the website

Are you a company or individual using Scrapy for your product or project? Add yourself to the "Companies using Scrapy" list by sending a pull request:

• add a "company card" in _data/companies/list/<companyslug>.yml as a YAML file; you need to set a few fields: a name, a "logouser" for your logo filename, a homepage and a blurb in markdown syntax on how you're using Scrapy. Do add links to any article or tweet spreading your love of Scrapy
• add your logo to img/
• add the slug of your company card to the list in _data/companies/users.yml.

Are you providing Scrapy consulting?

If you are a company providing Scrapy consulting or spider development, you can submit a pull request to add your company to the "Scrapy Pros" list.

The companies are sorted by their overall contribution to the Scrapy project and ecosystem. There's a small process to manage that:

1. In order to appear in the list, a company must score at least five points in the table below.

2. The company must submit an issue to

  scrapy.org repo whenever they want

to update their contributions and ranking.

3. This issue must contain references to all the contributions that the company

made since the last time their rank has been updated.

This is the criteria that will be used:

Contribution	Points
Pull request accepted in scrapy repo	50
Creation or contribution to public Scrapy plugins	20
Instructional materials such as screencasts, tutorials or blog posts	10
Blog posts that spread the word about Scrapy	5
Landing page in the company website describing the Scrapy services	2
Scrapy listed in the company's technologies stack (if any)	2
Answer to StackOverflow question regarding Scrapy	1

In practice, to be listed, you'll need to:

• add/update your "company card" in _data/companies/list/<companyslug>.yml as a YAML file; it needs a url field (e.g. the landing page of your consulting services offer), a description field describing your services (use markdown), and a logo filename
• add your logo to img/
• add/update your contributions in _data/companies/pros/contributions.csv
• re-run update_ranking.py inside _data/companies/pros/

and send a pull request with these changes.
