react-google-recaptcha

[![Build Status][ci.img]][ci.url] [![npm version][npm.img]][npm.url] [![npm downloads][npm.dl.img]][npm.dl.url]


React component for [Google reCAPTCHA v2][reCAPTCHA].

Installation

``shell
npm install --save react-google-recaptcha
`

Usage

All you need to do is [sign up for an API key pair][signup]. You will need the client key then you can use .

The default usage imports a wrapped component that loads the google recaptcha script asynchronously then instantiates a reCAPTCHA the user can then interact with.

Code Example:
`jsx
import ReCAPTCHA from "react-google-recaptcha";

function onChange(value) {
console.log("Captcha value:", value);
}

ReactDOM.render(
sitekey="Your client site key"
onChange={onChange}
/>,
document.body
);
`

Properties used to customise the rendering:

| Name | Type | Description |
|:---- | ---- | ------ |
| asyncScriptOnLoad | func | optional callback when the google recaptcha script has been loaded |
| badge | enum | optional bottomright, bottomleft or inline. Positions reCAPTCHA badge. Only for invisible reCAPTCHA |
| hl | string | optional set the hl parameter, which allows the captcha to be used from different languages, see [reCAPTCHA hl] |
| isolated | bool | optional For plugin owners to not interfere with existing reCAPTCHA installations on a page. If true, this reCAPTCHA instance will be part of a separate ID space. (__default:__ false)
| onChange | func | The function to be called when the user successfully completes the captcha |
| onErrored | func | optional callback when the challenge errored, most likely due to network issues. |
| onExpired | func | optional callback when the challenge is expired and has to be redone by user. By default it will call the onChange with null to signify expired callback. |
| sitekey | string | The API client key |
| size | enum | optional compact, normal or invisible. This allows you to change the size or do an invisible captcha |
| stoken | string | optional set the stoken parameter, which allows the captcha to be used from different domains, see [reCAPTCHA secure-token] |
| tabindex | number | optional The tabindex on the element (__default:__ 0)
| type | enum | optional image or audio The type of initial captcha (__defaults:__ image)
| theme | enum | optional light or dark The theme of the widget (__defaults:__ light). See [example][docs_theme]

The component instance also has some utility functions that can be called. These can be accessed via ref.

- getValue() returns the value of the captcha field
- getWidgetId() returns the recaptcha widget Id
- reset() forces reset. See the [JavaScript API doc][js_api]
- execute() programmatically invoke the challenge
- need to call when using "invisible" reCAPTCHA - example below
- executeAsync() programmatically invoke the challenge and return a promise that resolves to the token or errors(if encountered).
- alternative approach to execute() in combination with the onChange() prop - example below

Example:
`javascript
const recaptchaRef = React.createRef();
...
onSubmit = () => {
const recaptchaValue = recaptchaRef.current.getValue();
this.props.onSubmit(recaptchaValue);
}
render() {
return (



ref={recaptchaRef}
sitekey="Your client site key"
onChange={onChange}
/>

)
}


`

▶ Codesandbox invisible example

See the reCAPTCHA documentation to see how to configure it.

With the invisible option, you need to handle things a bit differently. You will need to call the execute method yourself.

`jsx
import ReCAPTCHA from "react-google-recaptcha";

const recaptchaRef = React.createRef();

ReactDOM.render(


{ recaptchaRef.current.execute(); }}>
ref={recaptchaRef}
size="invisible"
sitekey="Your client site key"
onChange={onChange}
/>
,
document.body
);


`

Additionally, you can use the executeAsync method to use a promise based approach.

`jsx
import ReCAPTCHA from "react-google-recaptcha";


const ReCAPTCHAForm = (props) => {
const recaptchaRef = React.useRef();

const onSubmitWithReCAPTCHA = async () => {
const token = await recaptchaRef.current.executeAsync();

// apply to form data
}

return (


ref={recaptchaRef}
size="invisible"
sitekey="Your client site key"
/>

)

}

ReactDOM.render(
,
document.body
);
`

#### Global properties used by reCaptcha

__useRecaptchaNet__: If google.com is blocked, you can set useRecaptchaNet to true so that the component uses recaptcha.net instead.

__enterprise__: if you want to use Google Enterprise Recaptcha, instead of the free version, set enterprise to true.

Example global properties:
`js
window.recaptchaOptions = {
useRecaptchaNet: true,
enterprise: true,
};
`

$3


`js
window.recaptchaOptions = {
nonce: document.querySelector('meta[name=\'csp-nonce\']').getAttribute('content'),
};
`

#### ReCaptcha loading google recaptcha script manually

You can also use the barebone components doing the following. Using that component will oblige you to manage the grecaptcha dep and load the script by yourself.

`jsx
import { ReCAPTCHA } from "react-google-recaptcha";

const grecaptchaObject = window.grecaptcha // You must provide access to the google grecaptcha object.

render(
ref={(r) => this.recaptcha = r}
sitekey="Your client site key"
grecaptcha={grecaptchaObject}
/>,
document.body
);
`

#### Hiding the Recaptcha

According to the google docs you are allowed to hide the badge as long as you include the reCAPTCHA branding visibly in the user flow. Please include the following text:

`
This site is protected by reCAPTCHA and the Google
Privacy Policy and
Terms of Service apply.
`

If you wish to hide the badge you must add:

`
.grecaptcha-badge { visibility: hidden; }
