Configuration file

Scrapyd searches for configuration files in the following locations, and parses them in order with the latest one taking more priority:

• /etc/scrapyd/scrapyd.conf (Unix)
• c:\scrapyd\scrapyd.conf (Windows)
• /etc/scrapyd/conf.d/* (in alphabetical order, Unix)
• scrapyd.conf
• ~/.scrapyd.conf (users home directory)
