Laravel ReCaptcha

Easily integrate Google's reCAPTCHA into your Laravel 5+ project.

Installation

composer require nissicreative/laravel-recaptcha

Setup

Add the service provider to the providers array in app/config/app.php.
(You can skip this step if using Laravel 5.5+, as it will use Laravel's autodiscovery.)

Nissi\ReCaptcha\ReCaptchaServiceProvider::class,

Configuration

Visit https://google.com/recaptcha and register your site. Be sure to list all domains on which you will use the widget, including any local or staging domains (e.g. localhost or mysite.test). You will be assigned a Site Key and a Secret Key.

Add these reCAPTCHA keys to your .env file:

RECAPTCHA_KEY=my-site-key
RECAPTCHA_SECRET=my-secret-key

This is the default config file:

<?php

return [
    'key'           => env('RECAPTCHA_KEY'),
    'secret'        => env('RECAPTCHA_SECRET'),
    'script_url'    => 'https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js',
    'verify_url'    => 'https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify',
    'error_message' => 'reCAPTCHA validation failed. Please try again.',
    'log_responses' => false,
];

If you would like to modify the config file and/or views, you may run:

php artisan vendor:publish

Usage: The Form Page

In your page's <head> section, add this line to include the remote Google JavaScript file:

@include('recaptcha::script')

Then inside your form, insert the widget:

@include('recaptcha::widget')

That's it! You should now see the reCAPTCHA widget when you refresh the page.

Validating the Request

Validation is simple: Just add a recaptcha rule to your validator. For example, in a controller:

$this->validate($request, [
    'g-recaptcha-response' => 'required|recaptcha',
    // Other rules...
], [
    // Custom messages
    'g-recaptcha-response.required' => 'Please complete the reCAPTCHA.',
]);

The recaptcha rule takes care of sending the input to Google's servers via Guzzle, and returns true upon successful validation.

Voilá!

Enjoy your reduced-spam lifestyle.
