About

This package handles reCaptcha (API versions 2 and 3) form submissions in Go.

Usage

Install the package in your environment:

go get github.com/dpapathanasiou/go-recaptcha

To use it within your own code, import github.com/dpapathanasiou/go-recaptcha and call:

recaptcha.Init (recaptchaPrivateKey)

once, to set the reCaptcha private key for your domain, then:

recaptcha.Confirm (clientIpAddress, recaptchaResponse)

reCAPTCHA v2

For each reCaptcha form input you need to check, using the values obtained by reading the form's POST parameters (the recaptchaResponse in the above corresponds to the value of g-recaptcha-response sent by the reCaptcha server.)

The recaptcha.Confirm() function returns either true (i.e., the captcha was completed correctly) or false, along with any errors (from the HTTP io read or the attempt to unmarshal the JSON reply).

reCAPTCHA v3

Version 3 works differently: instead of interrupting page visitors with a prompt, it runs in the background, computing a score.

This repo has been updated to handle the score and action in the response, but the usage example is still in terms of version 2.

Usage Example

Included with this repo is example.go, a simple HTTP server which creates the reCaptcha form and tests the input.

See the instructions for running the example for more details.

Overview

Package recaptcha handles reCaptcha (http://www.google.com/recaptcha) form submissions

This package is designed to be called from within an HTTP server or web framework which offers reCaptcha form inputs and requires them to be evaluated for correctness

Types

type Recaptcha

type Recaptcha struct {
	RecaptchaPrivateKey string
}

func (*Recaptcha) Check

func (r *Recaptcha) Check(remoteip, response string) (*RecaptchaResponse, error)

Check uses the client ip address, the challenge code from the reCaptcha form, and the client's response input to that challenge to determine whether or not the client answered the reCaptcha input question correctly.

type RecaptchaResponse

type RecaptchaResponse struct {
	Success     bool      `json:"success"`
	Score       float64   `json:"score"`
	Action      string    `json:"action"`
	ChallengeTS time.Time `json:"challenge_ts"`
	Hostname    string    `json:"hostname"`
	ErrorCodes  []string  `json:"error-codes"`
}
