Image CAPTCHA
You can specify file
, path
, raw
, raw64
and url
when decoding an image.
client.decode_image!(file: File.open('path/to/my/captcha/file', 'rb'))
client.decode_image!(path: 'path/to/my/captcha/file')
client.decode_image!(raw: File.open('path/to/my/captcha/file', 'rb').read)
client.decode_image!(raw64: Base64.encode64(File.open('path/to/my/captcha/file', 'rb').read))
client.decode_image!(url: 'http://bit.ly/1xXZcKo')
You may also specify any POST parameters specified at https://2captcha.com/setting.
reCAPTCHA v2
captcha = client.decode_recaptcha_v2!(
googlekey: 'xyz',
pageurl: 'http://example.com/example=1',
)
# The response will be a text (token), which you can access with the `text` method.
captcha.text
"03AOPBWq_RPO2vLzyk0h8gH0cA2X4v3tpYCPZR6Y4yxKy1s3Eo7CHZRQntxrd..."
Parameters:
-
googlekey
: the Google key for the reCAPTCHA. -
pageurl
: the URL of the page with the reCAPTCHA challenge.
reCAPTCHA v3
captcha = client.decode_recaptcha_v3!(
googlekey: 'xyz',
pageurl: 'http://example.com/example=1',
action: 'verify',
min_score: 0.3, # OPTIONAL
)
# The response will be a text (token), which you can access with the `text` method.
captcha.text
"03AOPBWq_RPO2vLzyk0h8gH0cA2X4v3tpYCPZR6Y4yxKy1s3Eo7CHZRQntxrd..."
Parameters:
-
googlekey
: the Google key for the reCAPTCHA. -
pageurl
: the URL of the page with the reCAPTCHA challenge. -
action
: the action name used by the CAPTCHA. -
min_score
: optional parameter. The minimal score needed for the CAPTCHA resolution. Defaults to0.3
.
About the
action
parameter: in order to find out what this is, you need to inspect the JavaScript code of the website looking for a call to thegrecaptcha.execute
function.// Example grecaptcha.execute('6Lc2fhwTAAAAAGatXTzFYfvlQMI2T7B6ji8UVV_f', { action: "examples/v3scores" })
About the
min_score
parameter: it's strongly recommended to use a minimum score of0.3
as higher scores are rare.
hCaptcha
captcha = client.decode_hcaptcha!(
sitekey: 'xyz',
pageurl: 'http://example.com/example=1',
)
captcha.text
"P0_eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJwYXNza2V5IjoiNnpWV..."
Amazon WAF
captcha = client.decode_amazon_waf!(
sitekey: 'xyz',
pageurl: 'http://example.com/example=1',
iv: 'A1A1A1A1A1A1A1A1',
context: 'ABcd...',
challenge_script: 'http://example.com/challenge.js',
)
puts captcha.text
{"captcha_voucher":"eyJ0...","existing_token":"f2ae6..."}
Parameters:
-
website_key
: the site key for the hCatpcha. -
website_url
: the URL of the page with the hCaptcha challenge.
3. Using proxy or other custom options
You are allowed to use custom options like proxy
, proxytype
or userAgent
whenever the
2Captcha API supports it. Example:
options = {
sitekey: 'xyz',
pageurl: 'http://example.com/example=1',
proxy: 'login:password@123.123.123.123:3128',
userAgent: 'user agent',
}
captcha = client.decode_hcaptcha!(options)
4. Retrieve a previously solved CAPTCHA
captcha = client.captcha('130920620') # with 130920620 being the CAPTCHA id
5. Report an incorrectly solved CAPTCHA for a refund
client.report!('130920620', 'reportbad') # with 130920620 being the CAPTCHA id
# returns `true` if successfully reported
client.report!('256892751', 'reportgood') # with 256892751 being the CAPTCHA id
# returns `true` if successfully reported
6. Get your account balance
client.balance
# returns a Float balance in USD.
7. Get usage statistics for a specific date
client.stats(Date.new(2022, 10, 7))
# returns an XML string with your usage statistics.
Notes
Thread-safety
The API is thread-safe, which means it is perfectly fine to share a client instance between multiple threads.
Ruby dependencies
TwoCaptcha don't require specific dependencies. That saves you memory and avoid conflicts with other gems.
Input image format
Any format you use in the decode_image!
method (url
, file
, path
, raw
or raw64
)
will always be converted to a raw64
, which is a base64-encoded binary string.
So, if you already have this format on your end, there is no need for convertions
before calling the API.
Our recomendation is to never convert your image format, unless needed. Let the gem convert internally. It may save you resources (CPU, memory and IO).
Versioning
TwoCaptcha gem uses Semantic Versioning.
