Allow to create spider with custom templates
See original GitHub issueI don’t know, am I wrong, but is it possible now to create custom templates and create spiders with scrapy genspider -t <custom_template> <name> <domain>? As I see in source code, user can set custom template folder in TEMPLATE_FOLDER variable, but is there any documentation about template language, which using in template?
Actually, I’ve planned to work on PR with possibilities to create custom templates, but probably it’s already implemented. May be just add documentation about this feature?
UPD. Ah, I see, that _genspider using render_templatefile, which just using string.Template().substitute() to render template and save .py file

@kmike Ok, I’ll make PR with some explanation about .tmpl files and necessary arguments, which need to be in templates. Thanks for the discussion 😃
