ColdBox ReCaptcha v2.0

ColdBox ReCAPTCHA v2.0 Module

==============================

This module contains helpers for using Google's ReCAPTCHA API.

reCAPTCHA is a free service that protects your site from spam and abuse. It uses advanced risk analysis techniques to tell humans and bots apart. With the 2.0 API, a significant number of your valid human users will pass the reCAPTCHA challenge without having to solve a CAPTCHA. reCAPTCHA comes in the form of a widget that you can easily add to your blog, forum, registration form, etc.

#Instructions

Just drop into your `modules` folder or use the box-cli to install

`box install recaptcha2`

##USAGE

Get an API key pair at http://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin and add the following settings to your `Coldbox.cfc` under a `recaptcha` structure:

```js

// recaptcha settings

recaptcha = {

    private_key = "Secret key",

    public_key = "Site key",

};

```

In any form you wish to add the reCaptcha widget use `#renderview(view="widget",module="recaptcha")#`.

In your handler for the post of the form, or in a model object you can then use the included Validator. Here is an example of using it in a model object:

```js

    this.constraints = {

         "body" : { required:true }

        ,"recaptcha" : { validator:"id:[email protected]" }

    }

```

In the above example, your handler would just need to set the recaptcha property on the model object to the `g-recaptcha-response` value that is part of the form payload.

There also is a `[email protected]` Wirebox mapping you can use to validate manually if you prefer to not use the `cbvalidation` integration. In your handler:

```js

var recaptchaOK = getInstance("[email protected]").isValid( rc["g-recaptcha-response"] );

if (!recaptchaOK) {

    echo("Prove you have a soul!");

}

```
