A Python package for integrating hCaptcha, a popular captcha service, into various applications for enhanced security and user verification.
hcaptcha is a Python module (unofficial) that provides an easy-to-use interface for verifying hcaptcha responses using the hcaptcha verification API.
You can install hcaptcha using pip:
pip install hcaptcha
To use hcaptcha, you'll need an hcaptcha secret key for your site. You can get one by signing up for an account at hcaptcha website.
from hcaptcha.hcaptcha import HCaptchaVerifier, HCaptchaVerificationError
import asyncio
# Initialize the verifier with your hcaptcha secret key
verifier = HCaptchaVerifier(your_hcaptcha_secret_key)
# Verify an hcaptcha response
# You can use await instead of asyncio.run if you are in a async function
try:
is_valid = asyncio.run(verifier.verify(user_response_token))
if is_valid:
print("Captcha verified successfully.")
else:
print("Captcha verification failed.")
except HCaptchaVerificationError as e:
print(f"Verification failed with error: {str(e)}")
