# DeSciL-mturk

API to connect to the Amazon Mechanical Service payment service
provided by the ETH Decision Science Laboratory (DeSciL).

The DeSciL Mturk service is still in beta. If you are interested in
testing the `descil-mturk` API, contact the lab manager to receive
valid credentials.

## Setup

Create a file called `descil.conf.js` containing the following lines:

```javascript
module.exports.key = "zyx";
module.exports.project = "xyx";
module.exports.uri = "http://xxx.xxx";
module.exports.file = "path/to/codes"; // optional
```

You can then import the configuration file:

```javascript
var dk = require('descil-mturk')('path/to/descil.conf.js');

// or

var dk = require('descil-mturk')();
dk.readConfiguration('path/to/descil.conf.js');
```

## Usage

```javascript
dk.checkIn(code, cb);
dk.checkOut(code, cb);
dk.postPayoffs(payoffs, cb);
dk.dryRun(false); // Actually establishes connections with the service.
```

Refer to the in-line documentation for more examples.
