Developed by Infosimples, a brazilian company that offers data extraction solutions and Ruby on Rails development.
ZeroCaptcha is a Ruby API for an enterprise captcha solving service developed by Infosimples that is 100% powered by artificial intelligence software.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'zero_captcha', '~> 1.0.0'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install zero_captcha
# Create a client
#
client = ZeroCaptcha.new('mytoken')
There are two methods available: decode and decode! * decode doesn't raise exceptions. * decode! may raise a ZeroCaptcha::Error if something goes wrong.
If the solution is not available, an empty captcha object will be returned.
captcha = client.decode(url: 'http://bit.ly/1xXZcKo', solver: 'captcha-type-1')
captcha.text # Solution of the captcha
captcha.id # Numeric ID of the captcha solved by ZeroCaptcha
captcha.correct? # true if the solution is correct
captcha.duration # How long it took to solve the captcha in milliseconds.
You can also specify path, file, raw and raw64 when decoding an image.
client.decode(path: 'path/to/my/captcha/file', solver: 'captcha-type-1')
client.decode(file: File.open('path/to/my/captcha/file', 'rb'), solver: 'captcha-type-1')
client.decode(raw: File.open('path/to/my/captcha/file', 'rb').read, solver: 'captcha-type-1')
client.decode(raw64: Base64.encode64(File.open('path/to/my/captcha/file', 'rb').read), solver: 'captcha-type-1')
Internally, the gem will always convert the image to raw64 (binary base64 encoded).
captcha = client.report_incorrect(130920620) # with 130920620 as the captcha id
Warning: do not abuse on this method, otherwise you may get banned
captcha = client.report_correct(130920620) # with 130920620 as the captcha id
The API is thread-safe, which means it is perfectly fine to share a client instance between multiple threads.
ZeroCaptcha don't require specific dependencies. That saves you memory and avoid conflicts with other gems.
Any format you use in the decode method (url, file, path, raw, raw64) will always be converted to a raw64, which is a binary base64 encoded string. So, if you already have this format available on your side, there's no need to do convertions before calling the API.
Our recomendation is to never convert your image format, unless needed. Let the gem convert internally. It may save you resources (CPU, memory and IO).
