Google reCAPTCHA v2 Checkbox
============================

[](#google-recaptcha-v2-checkbox)

This package allows you implement Google reCAPTCHA v2 Checkbox in any form without any hassle.

Version Support
---------------

[](#version-support)

Laravel VersionSupportLaravel 10✔️Laravel 9Not testedLaravel 8Not testedLaravel 7Not testedLaravel 6Not testedInstallation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require smkbd/recaptcha-checkbox

```

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

[](#configuration)

Add the following environment values in your `.env` file

```
RECAPTCHA_SITE_KEY=recaptcha_site_key_here
RECAPTCHA_SECRET_KEY=recaptcha_secret_key_here

```

You can obtain these keys from [Google reCAPTCHA Admin](https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin)

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To enable reCAPTCHA in a form, you need to make two changes, one in the `` and one in the controller method which accepts the form request.

### Form

[](#form)

Include the blade directive `@recaptcha` where you want the checkbox to appear.

### Controller

[](#controller)

In the controller, all you need is to use `\Smkbd\RecaptchaCheckbox\RecaptchaRequest $request`instead of `\Illuminate\Http\Client\Request $request` as the method argument.

For example, in `routes/web.php`

```
Route::post('/comments', [\App\Http\Controllers\CommentController::class, 'store'])->name('comments.store');

```

In `app/Http/Controllers/CommentController.php`

```
use Smkbd\RecaptchaCheckbox\RecaptchaRequest;

class CommentController extends Controller{
    ...

    public function store(RecaptchaRequest $request){

        // Your logic here

    }

    ...
}

```

You can appply your own validation inside the controller as you usually do. But `RecaptchaRequest` will first validate the request if it comes with a valid captcha fulfillment.

Translation
-----------

[](#translation)

To translate the messages for captcha, you need to publish the vendor files first.

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=recaptcha

```

This will publish the translation files in `resources/lang/vendor/recaptcha` directory.
