Usage Guide

• Step 1:

Import all functions from react-simple-captcha

import { loadCaptchaEnginge, LoadCanvasTemplate, LoadCanvasTemplateNoReload, validateCaptcha } from 'react-simple-captcha';

• Step 2:

Place < LoadCanvasTemplate /> or < LoadCanvasTemplateNoReload /> (if you do not want 'Reload Captcha' functionality) in your render code

render() {
     return (<div>
        <LoadCanvasTemplate />
         </div>);
 };

OR

render() {
     return (<div>
         <LoadCanvasTemplateNoReload />
         </div>);
 };

• Step 3:

Paste loadCaptchaEnginge(6) (You can change 6 to number of captcha charcters you want) in componentDidMount

componentDidMount () {
    loadCaptchaEnginge(6); 
 };

• Step 4:

Validate captcha by using validateCaptcha(user_captcha_value)

doSubmit = () => {
<! --   let's assume there is an HTML input text box with id 'user_captcha_input' to get user input -->   
     let user_captcha_value = document.getElementById('user_captcha_input').value;

     if (validateCaptcha(user_captcha_value)==true) {
         alert('Captcha Matched');
     }

     else {
         alert('Captcha Does Not Match');
     }
 };

OR
If you don't want captcha to be reloaded if user enter the wrong value then set second parameter to false validateCaptcha(user_captcha_value, false)

doSubmit = () => {
<! --   let's assume there is an HTML input text box with id 'user_captcha_input' to get user input -->    
       let user_captcha_value = document.getElementById('user_captcha_input').value;

       if (validateCaptcha(user_captcha_value, false)==true) {
           alert('Captcha Matched');
       }

       else {
           alert('Captcha Does Not Match');
       }
   };

Example

Let's create a class name CaptchaTest with react simple captcha functionality:

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { loadCaptchaEnginge, LoadCanvasTemplate, LoadCanvasTemplateNoReload, validateCaptcha } from 'react-simple-captcha';



class CaptchaTest extends Component {

   componentDidMount () {
      loadCaptchaEnginge(6); 
   };

   doSubmit = () => {
       let user_captcha = document.getElementById('user_captcha_input').value;

       if (validateCaptcha(user_captcha)===true) {
           alert('Captcha Matched');
           loadCaptchaEnginge(6); 
           document.getElementById('user_captcha_input').value = "";
       }

       else {
           alert('Captcha Does Not Match');
           document.getElementById('user_captcha_input').value = "";
       }
   };

   render() {
        

       return (<div>
           <div className="container">
               <div className="form-group">

                   <div className="col mt-3">
                       <LoadCanvasTemplate />
                   </div>

                   <div className="col mt-3">
                       <div><input placeholder="Enter Captcha Value" id="user_captcha_input" name="user_captcha_input" type="text"></input></div>
                   </div>

                   <div className="col mt-3">
                       <div><button class="btn btn-primary" onClick={() => this.doSubmit()}>Submit</button></div>
                   </div>
                     
               </div>

           </div>
       </div>);
   };
}

export default CaptchaTest;

Import CaptchaTest in index.js

import CaptchaTest from './captcha_test'; 

Now replace ReactDOM.render with

ReactDOM.render(<CaptchaTest />, document.getElementById('root'));
