recaptcha-promise

CI Test Coverage

This Node module aims to provide simple, asynchronous, promise-based ReCAPTCHA response verification. TypeScript type definitions are included.

This software is in no way affiliated with or endorsed by Google.

Installation

Add to your project's dependencies:

npm install recaptcha-promise

Usage

Creating an instance

This is the recommended way. First, an instance is created with your secret key. It can then be used to verify as many challenges as needed.

const recaptcha = require('recaptcha-promise').create({
  secret: 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY'
})

// In an HTTP handler:

// ... with Promises:
recaptcha.verify(userResponse).then(function (success) {
  console.log(success ? 'Response valid' : 'Response invalid')
})

// ... or in an async context:
async function handleRequest (userResponse) {
  const success = await recaptcha.verify(userResponse)
  console.log(success ? 'Response valid' : 'Response invalid')
}
handleRequest(/* ... */)

The global instance

This exists mostly for legacy reasons. If you do not want to dependency-inject a custom object, you can configure this package with your secret key globally:

// note the missing .create(...) call
const recaptcha = require('recaptcha-promise')

recaptcha.init({
  secret: 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY' // secret_key and secretKey are also valid
})

You can then use recaptcha exactly the same as above. You can also require it elsewhere and it will still have the secret key ready.

Passing a remote address

If you have the client's remote address available, you can pass it as a second parameter to the verify function.
