# is_bot

About

is_bot is a clean rewrite of less_reverse_captcha

It is a simple way to make your forms bot-proof. The effectiveness of the solution is open to discussion. I have used it on a low traffic site and it seems to have reduced the bot-attack considerably.

## Usage

It is very simple to use. Just install it in your rails app and perform the following steps.

In your model class:

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  validate_captcha
end

In your model's view:

form_for @user do |f|
  captcha_reverse_field :user
end

And that's it.

Rails 3

Use version 1.0.0

Rails 4

Use version 2.0.0 and above.

There are a couple of pages describing inner workings and pecuilar use cases. Will update it as and when I come across more pecuilar ones.

Versioning

The project uses semantic versioning.
