Python Scrapy: Logging Data from Spiders with Custom Functions and Built-in log Method

The video tutorial covers testing data selectors and printing data using Python's built-in print function. It introduces the use of the built-in log method for logging messages in a consistent format, explaining the different levels of log messages such as debug, info, warning, and error. The tutorial then guides viewers on creating custom logging functions to make log outputs more recognizable, including adding decorations to outputs. Finally, it demonstrates how to implement and test these custom log functions within a project.
