VividCortex reCaptcha AngularJS Directive

Use this directive to be able to submit with XHR a form that contains a reCaptcha.

Demo

See the demo file for an usage example.

Keep in mind that the captcha only works when used from a real domain and with a valid re-captcha key, so this file won't work if you just load it in your browser.

Usage

First, you need to get a valid public key for your domain. See http://www.google.com/recaptcha.

Then, include the reCaptcha API using this script in your HTML:

<script src="https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js?onload=vcRecapthaApiLoaded&render=explicit" async defer></script>

As you can see, we are specifying a onload callback, which will notify the angular service once the api is ready for usage.

Also include the vc-recaptcha script and make your angular app depend on the vcRecaptcha module.

<script type="text/javascript" src="angular-recaptcha.js"></script>
var app = angular.module('myApp', ['vcRecaptcha']);

After that, you can place a container for the captcha widget in your view, and call the vc-recaptcha directive on it like this:

<div
    vc-recaptcha
    key="'---- YOUR PUBLIC KEY GOES HERE ----'"
></div>

Here, the key attribute is passed to the directive's scope, so you can use either a property in your scope or just a hardcoded string. Be careful to use your public key, not your private one.

To validate this object from your server, you need to use the API described in the verify section. Validation is outside of the scope of this tool, since is mandatory to do that at the server side. To get the response that you need to send to your server, use the method getResponse() from the vcRecaptchaService angular service, which will return the string that you'll need.

The method getResponse() receives an optional argument widgetId, useful for getting the response of a specific reCaptcha widget(in case you render more than one widget). If no widget ID is provided, the response for the first created widget will be returned.

var response = vcRecaptchaService.getResponse();

Other Parameters

You can optionally pass a theme the captcha should use, as an html attribute:

    <div
        vc-recaptcha
        theme="light"
        key="'---- YOUR PUBLIC KEY GOES HERE ----'"
    ></div>

In this case we are specifying that the captcha should use the theme named light.

Listeners

There are two listeners you can use with the directive, on-create and on-success.

  • on-create: It's called right after the widget is created. It receives a widget ID, which could be helpful if you have more than one reCaptcha in your site.
  • on-success: It's called once the user resolves the captcha. It receives the response string you would need for verifying the response.
<div
    vc-recaptcha
    key="'---- YOUR PUBLIC KEY GOES HERE ----'"
    on-create="onCreate(widgetId)"
    on-success="onSuccess(response)"
></div>

Example

app.controller('myController', ['$scope', 'vcRecaptchaService', function ($scope, recaptcha) {
    $scope.onCreate = function (widgetId) {
        // store the `widgetId` for future usage.
        // For example for getting the response with
        // `recaptcha.getResponse(widgetId)`.
    };

    $scope.onSuccess = function (response) {
        // send the `response` to your server for verification.
    };
}]);

Differences with the old reCaptcha

  • The lang parameter in the directive is no longer used by reCaptcha. If you want to force a language, you'd need to add a hl parameter to the script of the reCaptcha API (?onload=onloadCallback&render=explicit&hl=es).
  • Parameter tabindex is no longer used by reCaptcha and its usage has no effect.
  • Access to the input text is no longer supported.
  • Challenge is no longer provided by reCaptcha. The response text is used along with the private key and user's IP address for verification.
  • Switching between image and audio is now handled by reCaptcha.
  • Help display is now handled by reCaptcha.

Recent Changelog

  • 2.0.1 - Fixed onload when using ng-route and recaptcha is placed in a secondary view.
  • 2.0.0 - Rewritten service to support new reCaptcha
  • 1.0.2 - added extra Recaptcha object methods to the service, i.e. switch_type, showhelp, etc.
  • 1.0.0 - the key attribute is now a scope property of the directive
  • Added the destroy() method to the service. Thanks to @endorama.
  • We added a different integration method (see demo/2.html) which is safer because it doesn't relies on a timeout on the reload event of the recaptcha. Thanks to @sboisse for reporting the issue and suggesting the solution.
  • The release is now built using GruntJS so if you were using the source files (the src directory) in your projects you should now use the files in the release directory.
