laravel5-recaptcha2
===================

[](#laravel5-recaptcha2)

Recaptcha v2 for Laravel 5. Inspired by [anhskohbo/no-captcha](https://github.com/anhskohbo/no-captcha) and [greggilbert/recaptcha](https://github.com/greggilbert/recaptcha).

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Run 'composer require crazyinventor/laravel5-recaptcha2' or modify your composer.json:

```
{
    "require": {
        "crazyinventor/laravel5-recaptcha2": "1.0.1"
    }
}
```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Get your keys for recaptcha from the [admin page](https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin#list).

Then register the Service Provider.

#### Laravel 5.0

[](#laravel-50)

In `/config/app.php`, add the following to `providers`:

```
'CrazyInventor\Lacaptcha\LacaptchaServiceProvider',

```

and the following to `aliases`:

```
'Recaptcha' => 'CrazyInventor\Lacaptcha\Facades\Lacaptcha',

```

#### Laravel 5.1 and newer

[](#laravel-51-and-newer)

In `/config/app.php`, add the following to `providers`:

```
CrazyInventor\Lacaptcha\LacaptchaServiceProvider::class,

```

and the following to `aliases`:

```
'Recaptcha' => CrazyInventor\Lacaptcha\Facades\Lacaptcha::class,

```

#### Publish config file

[](#publish-config-file)

Publish the `recaptcha` configuration file by running the following command from a shell inside your Laravel's installation directory:

```
php artisan vendor:publish

```

This will create the file `config/recaptcha.php` in your Laravel's installation directory. You can modify this file by entering your sitekey and secret directly to it or adding the keys to your **.env** file.

#### .env file

[](#env-file)

Add `RECAPTCHA_SECRET` and `RECAPTCHA_SITEKEY` to your **.env** file:

```
RECAPTCHA_SECRET=[secret-key]
RECAPTCHA_SITEKEY=[site-key]

```

Replace `[secret-key]` and `[site-key]` with your keys.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

1. In your form, use `{!! Recaptcha::render() !!}` to echo out the markup.
2. To validate your form, add the following rule:

```
$rules = [
    // ...
    'g-recaptcha-response' => 'required|recaptcha',
];
```

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

When testing your application you might want to skip the recaptcha part. To do so add these lines at the start of your test:

```
// prevent validation error on captcha
Recaptcha::shouldReceive('verify')
    ->once()
    ->andReturn(true);
// provide hidden input for your 'required' validation
Recaptcha::shouldReceive('render')
    ->zeroOrMoreTimes()
    ->andReturn('');
```

Testing with Laravel 5.4 and Dusk
---------------------------------

[](#testing-with-laravel-54-and-dusk)

Unfortunately, mocking does not work for Laravel Dusk. But you can overwrite the validator function very easily by adding the following code to your test.

```
$app = $this->app;
    $app['validator']->extend('recaptcha', function ($attribute, $value) use ($app) {
    return true;
});
```
