    Yes, I just did the simplest thing I could think of and tweaked the database
    so the main interface appears on worker. Then just imported my backup.
    Scraper itself didn't need any modification of course once the database was
    present.

    As a bonus you can even search the database. I put it on it's own page instead of attempting to graft it to the dashboard.
    Had to disable the Projected Earnings bit (I'd forgotten that was there to be honest, took me a while to realize that was why
    my quick hack didn't work at first).

    If anyone really wants it, I can put this somewhere, but again, it isn't going to update past whenever your last backup
    was so it is pretty useless. It might eliminate grabbing some repeated survey attempts from scraper or whatever, but
    a survey not showing up in the database doesn't mean you haven't done it recently.

    Yeah, I was just going to put it on dropbox or something if people want it. Your suggestion is even easier. :)
    Way too half-assed to put it on greasyfork -- way too little of HIT db's functionality remains, it wouldn't be what people are expecting.

    Thanks for that website elt, it isn't one I was familiar with. Very useful.

    nice!
    was able to import the csv I exported on turknado day
    and it works with the patched hit scraper
    too bad hit forker removed the hit db integration

    should be possible to import new hits or make the update button work
    a little above my paygrade if it's more than a few copy and pastes

    I started keeping track of my HITs before I even knew the database existed
    (and before the 'new' and improved database was released) in my own odd
    format. When I installed the database I wrote a program to convert my rather
    large text file to the format the database expects as an import. And I've just
    kept doing it that way. Every week I export to my own format, convert and
    import to HIT database. (I figure if I've done it in the last week I'll remember.)

    Working now on a script to export to my oddball format. If I can get that
    working I can basically keep using hit database as I've always done.
    It's odd, clumsy, etc, but it should work. In theory.

    Not sure what information HIT database needs that isn't available. Everything
    I want is pretty easy to extract, especially since the new server can spit
    out json. The database script is quite beyond me though -- all my scripts are
    made by starting with someone else's (simple) work and adapting it. My conversion
    program is in C, which I know inside out. It is web stuff I don't know.

    Random question, anyone know the difference between a hit_id and an assignment_id?
    They are both present in the status details, they look similar (30 characters starting
    with '3'). Neither is the group ID used for pandas because they are not the same
    for hits done from the same group.

    I'm late to this party. Can I get this? Where is it? I didn't save my old DB, but I would like one starting Dec 15. The date, requester and name of hit would be enough for me.

    Unfortunately all it does is let you access your old backed-up database so it has very limited use. And since you have no backup it wouldn't be helpful at all for you. There is no way to update the database to add recent HITs.

    you use MTS, the Hit Tracker can import the old hit db
    using the script to export to json
    it can sync the last 45 days of hits if that's all you wanted

    that's too bad. I thought it was just not working right in firefox
    you can export and all the hit details are in that file.
    scripts would be so much more fun if they were al'carte
    pick and choose the features you want.

    I lied, requ and hit are listed. But it will be only the past 45 days.
