How can i use multiple requests and pass items in between them in scrapy python

Question

I have the item object and i need to pass that along many pages to store data in single item

LIke my item is

class DmozItem(Item):
    title = Field()
    description1 = Field()
    description2 = Field()
    description3 = Field()

Now those three description are in three separate pages. i want to do somrething like

Now this works good for parseDescription1

def page_parser(self, response):
    sites = hxs.select('//div[@class="row"]')
    items = []
    request =  Request("http://www.example.com/lin1.cpp",  callback =self.parseDescription1)
    request.meta['item'] = item
    return request 

def parseDescription1(self,response):
    item = response.meta['item']
    item['desc1'] = "test"
    return item

But i want something like

def page_parser(self, response):
    sites = hxs.select('//div[@class="row"]')
    items = []
    request =  Request("http://www.example.com/lin1.cpp",  callback =self.parseDescription1)
    request.meta['item'] = item

    request =  Request("http://www.example.com/lin1.cpp",  callback =self.parseDescription2)
    request.meta['item'] = item

    request =  Request("http://www.example.com/lin1.cpp",  callback =self.parseDescription2)
    request.meta['item'] = item

    return request 

def parseDescription1(self,response):
    item = response.meta['item']
    item['desc1'] = "test"
    return item

def parseDescription2(self,response):
    item = response.meta['item']
    item['desc2'] = "test2"
    return item

def parseDescription3(self,response):
    item = response.meta['item']
    item['desc3'] = "test3"
    return item

No problem. Following is correct version of your code:

def page_parser(self, response):
      sites = hxs.select('//div[@class="row"]')
      items = []

      request = Request("http://www.example.com/lin1.cpp", callback=self.parseDescription1)
      request.meta['item'] = item
      yield request

      request = Request("http://www.example.com/lin1.cpp", callback=self.parseDescription2, meta={'item': item})
      yield request

      yield Request("http://www.example.com/lin1.cpp", callback=self.parseDescription3, meta={'item': item})

def parseDescription1(self,response):
            item = response.meta['item']
            item['desc1'] = "test"
            return item

def parseDescription2(self,response):
            item = response.meta['item']
            item['desc2'] = "test2"
            return item

def parseDescription3(self,response):
            item = response.meta['item']
            item['desc3'] = "test3"
            return item
