Installation and Setup

Require through composer

composer require waavi/recaptcha 1.0.x

Or manually edit your composer.json file:

"require": {
    "waavi/recaptcha": "1.0.x"
}

In config/app.php, add the following entry to the end of the providers array:

Waavi\ReCaptcha\ReCaptchaServiceProvider::class,

And the following alias:

'ReCaptcha' => Waavi\ReCaptcha\Facades\ReCaptcha::class,

Publish the configuration file, the form view and the language entries:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Waavi\ReCaptcha\ReCaptchaServiceProvider"

Enter your secret and site keys provided by Google in either your environment file (recommended) or the config file:

RECAPTCHA_SITE_KEY=site_key
RECAPTCHA_SECRET_KEY=secret_key

A simple error message in english is provided when validation of a recaptcha fails. If you wish to customize it, add to your validation.php lang file the following entry:

```php
'recaptcha' =>  'Your error message here',
```

Usage

Rendering the ReCaptcha form in your views

You may render the ReCaptcha widget in your blade forms by calling:

{!! ReCaptcha::render() !!}

Or by including the provided view (if you choose to do this, the sitekey must be present as a parameter):

@include('recaptcha::recaptcha', ['siteKey' => config('recaptcha.keys.site')])

You may also choose to customize the widget through the available options described in the official docs

{!! ReCaptcha::render(['theme' => 'dark']) !!}

or

@include('recaptcha::recaptcha', ['siteKey' => config('recaptcha.keys.site'), 'options' => ['theme' => 'dark']])

Validating the ReCaptcha

There are two available options to validate the ReCaptcha. You may do so manually through the provided Facade:

```php
$value = \Input::get('g-recaptcha-response');
$gResponse = \ReCaptcha::parseInput($value);

if ($gResponse->isSuccess()) {
    return true;
}
else {
    $errors = $gResponse->getErrorMessages();   // Returns an array of error messages in the form of errorCode => errorMessage
    var_dump($errors);
}
```

Or in a much more convinient way, through the provided Validator extension, adding to your rules array:

```php
$rules = [
    /** Your rules ... **/
    'g-recaptcha-response' => 'recaptcha',
];
```
