dest	type	default	help	choices	required
task_name	unknown	???	Grouping to launch this task run under, none defaults to the blueprint type.	None	False
task_title	str	???	Display title for your task on the crowd provider.	None	True
task_description	str	???	Longer form description for what your task entails.	None	True
task_reward	float	???	Amount to pay per worker per unit, in dollars.	None	True
task_tags	str	???	Comma seperated tags for workers to use to find your task.	None	True
task_lifetime_in_seconds	int	2678400	The time that the task will last for before expiring.	None	False
assignment_duration_in_seconds	int	1800	Time that workers have to work on your task once accepted.	None	False
no_submission_patience	int	43200	How long to wait between task submissions before shutting the run down for a presumed issue. Value in seconds, default 12 hours.	None	False
allowed_concurrent	int	0	Maximum units a worker is allowed to work on at once. (0 is infinite).	None	True
maximum_units_per_worker	int	0	Maximum tasks of this task name that a worker can work on across all tasks that share this task_name. (0 is infinite).	None	False
max_num_concurrent_units	int	0	Maximum units that will be released simultaneously, setting a limit on concurrent connections to Mephisto overall. (0 is infinite).	None	False
submission_timeout	int	600	Time that mephisto will wait after marking a task done before abandoning waiting for the worker to actually press submit.	None	False
post_install_script	str		The name of a shell script in your webapp directory that will run right after npm install and before npm build. This can be useful for local package development where you would want to link a package after installing dependencies from package.json.	None	False
force_rebuild	bool	False	Determines if npm build should be ran every time the task is ran. By default there is an optimization that only builds the webapp when there is a change in its contents. It would make sense to set this to true when doing local package development as you want to force a rebuild after running the post_install_script.	None	False
resume_incomplete_run	unknown	False	Resume incomplete or interrupted TaskRun if it exists.	None	False
