crowdflower 0.0.5

Crowdflower API - Python Client

Minimal client library for interacting with the CrowdFlower API with Python.

Installation

Install from PyPI:

easy_install crowdflower

Or install the latest version GitHub:

git clone https://github.com/chbrown/crowdflower.git
cd crowdflower
python setup.py develop

Example use

Import:

import crowdflower

CrowdFlower API keys are 20 characters long; the one below is just random characters.

conn = crowdflower.Connection('LbcxvIlE3x1M8F6TT5hN')

This library will default to an environment variable called CROWDFLOWER_API_KEY if none is specified here:

conn = crowdflower.Connection()

Loop through all your jobs and print the titles:

for job in conn.jobs():
    print job['title']

Create a new job with some new units:

job = conn.upload(data)
print job

Fancy stuff

Run a bunch of DELETE calls on each item in the job.

for delete_response in job.clear_units():
    print delete_response

If you don’t want to print the responses, you still need to exhaust the loop:

list(job.clear_units())

This package uses kennethreitz’s Requests to communicate with the CrowdFlower API over HTTP.
