| 1. Read the documentation for and played around with boto3, including trying to rewrite my getResults.py script. On the plus side, boto3 finally integrates MTurk with the rest of AWS, On the minus side, what you get back is no longer Python types wrapping MTurk XML data structures, but rather Python dictionaries of the keys and values parsed from the XML data. The `Answer` part of an `Assignment` actually still comes back as a string of `QuestionFormAnswers` XML you have to parse yourself. (Hopefully that changes down the road; MTurk support is only 2 weeks old in boto3.) |
