== Configuration
You can configure easy_captcha in "config/initializers/easy_captcha.rb", if you want to customize the default configuration
EasyCaptcha.setup do |config|
# Cache
# config.cache = true
# Cache temp dir from Rails.root
# config.cache_temp_dir = Rails.root.join('tmp', 'captchas')
# Cache size
# config.cache_size = 500
# Cache expire
# config.cache_expire = 1.day
# Chars
# config.chars = %w(2 3 4 5 6 7 9 A C D E F G H J K L M N P Q R S T U X Y Z)
# Length
# config.length = 6
# Image
# config.image_height = 40
# config.image_width = 140
# eSpeak (default disabled)
# config.espeak do |espeak|
# Amplitude, 0 to 200
# espeak.amplitude = 80..120
# Word gap. Pause between words
# espeak.gap = 80
# Pitch adjustment, 0 to 99
# espeak.pitch = 30..70
# Use voice file of this name from espeak-data/voices
# espeak.voice = nil
# end
# configure generator
# config.generator :default do |generator|
# Font
# generator.font_size = 24
# generator.font_fill_color = '#333333'
# generator.font_stroke_color = '#000000'
# generator.font_stroke = 0
# generator.font = File.expand_path('../../resources/afont.ttf', __FILE__)
# Background color
# generator.image_background_color = "#FFFFFF"
# Or background image (e.g. transparent png)
# generator.background_image = File.expand_path('../../resources/captcha_bg.png', __FILE__)
# Wave
# generator.wave = true
# generator.wave_length = (60..100)
# generator.wave_amplitude = (3..5)
# Sketch
# generator.sketch = true
# generator.sketch_radius = 3
# generator.sketch_sigma = 1
# Implode
# generator.implode = 0.1
# Blur
# generator.blur = true
# generator.blur_radius = 1
# generator.blur_sigma = 2
# end
end
== Caching
It is strongly recommended to enable caching. You can see the three paramters which you have to fill in your config file below.
EasyCaptcha.setup do |config|
# Cache
config.cache = true
# Cache temp dir from Rails.root
config.cache_temp_dir = Rails.root.join('tmp', 'captchas')
# Cache expire
config.cache_expire = 1.day
# Cache size
# config.cache_size = 500
end
== Requirements
== Example
<% form_tag '/' do %>
<% if request.post? %>
<%= valid_captcha?(params[:captcha]) ? 'valid' : 'invalid' %> captcha
<% end %>
<%= captcha_tag %>
<%= text_field_tag :captcha %>
<%= submit_tag 'Validate' %>
<% end %>

== Maintainers
== Contributing to EasyCaptcha
- Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn't been implemented or the bug hasn't been fixed yet
- Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn't requested it and/or contributed it
- Fork the project
- Start a feature/bugfix branch
- Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution
- Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
- Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
