title: How to run a scrapy with a py file
body: <p>Hi i am working on scrapy,  i created a scrapy folder with <code>scrapy startproject example</code>
  and written spider to scrape all the data from the url, and
  I had run the spider using the command <code>scrapy crawl spider_name</code>, its working fine and able to fetch data. </p>
  
  <p>But i had a requirement that i need to run the scrapy with a single spider file created i mean a single py file something like</p>
  
  <pre><code>python -u /path/to/spider_file_inside_scrapy_folder_created.py
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is it possible to run a spider without <code>scrapy crawl</code> command after creating a scrapy project folder with spider.py file</p>
