Drive Amazon Mechanical Turk from your Clojure apps.

Configuration

Create a config.clj in your resources paths with a map with the following format:

{:AWSAccessKeyId    "deadbeef"
 :SecretAccessToken "cafebabe"
}

Usage

Amazon Mechanical Turk allocates jobs to humans in the form of "Human Intelligence Tasks" or "HITs".

First create a HIT type and Layout using the Requester UI.

Example of creating a HIT:

(let [hit-type-id     "VCZVWLDJOTFFJXXQLGXZ"
      hit-layout-id   "WMYUHDBKJKNGOAMNCNMT"
      10-minutes      (* 10 60)
      available-for   10-minutes]
  (create-hit hit-type-id hit-layout-id available-for
    (hit-layout-form {"field1" "val1"
                      "field2" "val2"})))
