AntiSpam Extension for Yii 2
============================

[](#antispam-extension-for-yii-2)

This extension provides form anti-spam features for the [Yii 2.0 framework](http://www.yiiframework.com).

For license information check the [LICENSE](LICENSE) file.

Documentation is at [docs/index.md](docs/index.md).

Copyright
---------

[](#copyright)

This extension was inspired by [BeastBytes/yii2-anti-spam](https://github.com/beastbytes/yii2-anti-spam)

BeastBytes' extension relies on modifications to the view files to work. If a lot of existing forms are to be modified, this can be a lot of work. This extension aims to provide the same functionality without the need to modify the view files.

To achieve this, this extension uses a custom ActiveField and multiple Traits which extend the default ActiveField / ActiveRecord / Model / DynamicModal classes. The custom ActiveField class adds the necessary hidden fields to the form and the Traits handle the attributes / validation

If extending the default ActiveField class is not an option, BeastBytes' original extension should be used.

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

[](#installation)

The preferred way to install this extension is through [composer](http://getcomposer.org/download/).

Either run

```
composer require --prefer-dist sandritsch91/yii2-honey-pot

```

```
