• OutputConfig – This contains the next:
  • S3Bucket – The S3 bucket identify for the output information.
  • S3KeyPrefix – The important thing prefix for the output information.

See the next code:

import boto3
import os
import datetime
import time
import json
import uuid

area = boto3.session.Session().region_name
s3=boto3.shopper('s3')
rekognition_client=boto3.shopper('rekognition', region_name=area)

min_confidence = 50
input_bucket = "MY-INPUT-BUCKET"

input_file = "input_file.jsonl"
output_bucket = "MY-OUTPUT-BUCKET"
key_prefix = "moderation-results"
job_name = "bulk-analysis-demo"

job_start_response = rekognition_client.start_media_analysis_job(
    OperationsConfig={"DetectModerationLabels": {"MinConfidence": min_confidence}},
    JobName = job_name,
    Enter={"S3Object": {"Bucket": input_bucket, "Identify": input_file}},
    OutputConfig={"S3Bucket": output_bucket, "S3KeyPrefix": key_prefix},
)

job_id = job_start_response["JobId"]
max_tries = 60
whereas max_tries > 0:
    max_tries -= 1
    job = rekognition_client.get_media_analysis_job(JobId=job_id)
    job_status = job["Status"]
    if job_status in ["SUCCEEDED", "FAILED"]:
        print(f"Job {job_name} is {job_status}.")
        if job_status == "SUCCEEDED":
            print(
                f"Bulk Evaluation output file copied to:n"
                f"tBucket: {job['Results']['S3Object']['Bucket']}n"
                f"tObject: {job['Results']['S3Object']['Name']}."
            )
        break
    else:
        print(f"Ready for {job_name}. Present standing is {job_status}.")
    time.sleep(10)

      "invalid-json-lines": 0
    },
    "errors": []
 }

The second file is outcomes.json, which incorporates one JSON line per every analyzed picture within the following format. Every consequence contains the top-level category (L1) of a detected label and the second-level class of the label (L2), with a confidence rating between 1–100. Some Taxonomy Stage 2 labels might have Taxonomy Stage 3 labels (L3). This permits a hierarchical classification of the content material.

{
  "source-ref": "s3://MY-INPUT-BUCKET/1.jpg",
    "detect-moderation-labels": {
    "ModerationLabels": [
      {
        "ParentName": "Products",
        "TaxonomyLevel": 3,
        "Confidence": 91.9385,
        "Name": "Pills"
      },
      {
        "ParentName": "Drugs & Tobacco",
        "TaxonomyLevel": 2,
        "Confidence": 91.9385,
        "Name": "Products"
      },
      {
        "ParentName": "",
        "TaxonomyLevel": 1,
        "Confidence": 91.9385,
        "Name": "Drugs & Tobacco"
      }

    "ModerationModelVersion": "7.0",
    "ContentTypes": [
      
    ]
  }
}

You should utilize Custom Moderation adapters later to investigate your pictures by merely choosing the customized adapter whereas creating a brand new bulk evaluation job or through API by passing the customized adapter’s distinctive adapter ID.
