Asking people to transcribe text and submit it to a central document. Will they transcribe verbatim?

make db of imgs waiting to be transcribed

#!/usr/bin/python
#-*- coding:utf-8 -*-

import pymongo
from pymongo import Connection


#======== create db with img files

connection = Connection()
myDB = connection['consentTexts1']
collection = myDB.collection  

for x in range(0,11):
	title = "text" + str(x)
	fileName = "img" + str(x) + ".jpg"
	
	
	sentence = {'title': title, 'file': fileName, 'status': "waiting", 'text':" " }
	print sentence
	collection.insert(sentence)

input form

proces input form

Change status of that img in db to 'finished'.

(this version just prints the text submitted)

#!/usr/bin/python
#-*- coding:utf-8 -*-

import cgi
import cgitb; cgitb.enable()
#import pymongo
#from pymongo import Connection

#======== get text from input form

form = cgi.FieldStorage()			# Grabs whatever input comes from form
text = form.getvalue("text", "//this part was transcribed blank//")		
title = form.getvalue("title")



#========= put it in the db

#connection = Connection()
#myDB = connection['consentTexts1']
#collection = myDB.collection  

#if title:
#	collection.update( {'title': title}, {"$set":{'status': 'done', 'text': text}} )

#========= print thank you
print """
