EWZRecaptchaBundle

EWZRecaptchaBundle

This bundle provides easy reCAPTCHA form field for Symfony.

Installation

Step 1: Use composer and enable Bundle

To install EWZRecaptchaBundle with Composer just type in your terminal:

php composer.phar require excelwebzone/recaptcha-bundle

Now, Composer will automatically download all required files, and install them
for you. All that is left to do is to update your AppKernel.php file, and
register the new bundle:


// in AppKernel::registerBundles()
$bundles = array(
// ...
new EWZ\Bundle\RecaptchaBundle\EWZRecaptchaBundle(),
// ...
);

Step2: Configure the bundle's

NOTE: The configuration options differ between Version 2 and Version 3 of the reCAPTCHA system. Some of the previous options have no effect on Version 3.

Add the following to your config file:

NOTE: If you're using symfony 4, the config will be in config/packages/ewz_recaptcha.yaml. The local dev enviroment has its own config in config/packages/dev/ewz_recaptcha.yaml.

Main configuration for both v2 and v3

The version setting determines which configuration options are available. Set the version corresponding to your Google reCAPTCHA settings (valid values: 2 or 3):

# app/config/config.yml

ewz_recaptcha:
// ...
version: 2

You can easily disable reCAPTCHA (for example in a local or test environment):

# app/config/config.yml

ewz_recaptcha:
// ...
enabled: false

Enter the public and private keys here:

# app/config/config.yml

ewz_recaptcha:
// ...
public_key: here_is_your_public_key
private_key: here_is_your_private_key


www.google.com is blocked in Mainland China, you can override the default server like this (See https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/faq#can-i-use-recaptcha-globally for further information):

# app/config/config.yml

ewz_recaptcha:
// ...
api_host: recaptcha.net

You can add HTTP Proxy configuration:

# app/config/config.yml

ewz_recaptcha:
// ...
http_proxy:
host: proxy.mycompany.com
port: 3128
auth: proxy_username:proxy_password

v2 only Configuration

Sets the default locale:

# app/config/config.yml

ewz_recaptcha:
// ...
# Not needed as "%kernel.default_locale%" is the default value for the locale key
locale_key: %kernel.default_locale%

NOTE: This Bundle lets the client browser choose the secure https or unsecure http API.

If you want to use the language default for the reCAPTCHA the same as the
request locale you must activate the resolver (deactivated by default):

# app/config/config.yml

ewz_recaptcha:
// ...
locale_from_request: true

You can load the reCAPTCHA using Ajax:

# app/config/config.yml

ewz_recaptcha:
// ...
ajax: true

In case you have turned off the domain name checking on reCAPTCHA's end, you'll need to check the origin of the response by enabling the verify_host option:

# app/config/config.yml

ewz_recaptcha:
// ...
verify_host: true

NOTE: If you're using symfony 5 and want to configure the bundle with PHP files instead of YAML, the configuration is like this:

// config/packages/ewz_recaptcha.php


use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Loader\Configurator\ContainerConfigurator;

return static function (ContainerConfigurator $configurator): void
{
$configurator->extension('ewz_recaptcha', [
'public_key' => 'here_is_your_public_key',
'private_key' => 'here_is_your_private_key',
'locale_key' => '%kernel.default_locale%'
]);
};

v3 only Configuration

For the v3 reCAPTCHA an information badge is shown. If you inform your users about using the reCAPTCHA on another way, you can hide it with the following option (see https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/faq#hiding-badge for further information):

# app/config/config.yml

ewz_recaptcha:
// ...
hide_badge: true

To modify the default threshold score of 0.5 set this option (see https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/v3#interpreting_the_score for further information):

# app/config/config.yml

ewz_recaptcha:
// ...
score_threshold: 0.6

Congratulations! You're ready!

Basic Usage

NOTE: The basic usage differs between Version 2 and Version 3 of the reCAPTCHA system.

v2 Usage

When creating a new form class add the following line to create the field:


use EWZ\Bundle\RecaptchaBundle\Form\Type\EWZRecaptchaType;

public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)
{
// ...
$builder->add('recaptcha', EWZRecaptchaType::class);
// ...
}

Note that in Symfony versions lower than 2.8 refers to form types by name instead of class name, use:


public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)
{
// ...
$builder->add('recaptcha', 'ewz_recaptcha');
// ...
}

You can pass extra options to reCAPTCHA with the "attr > options" option:


use EWZ\Bundle\RecaptchaBundle\Form\Type\EWZRecaptchaType;

public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)
{
// ...
$builder->add('recaptcha', EWZRecaptchaType::class, array(
'attr' => array(
'options' => array(
'theme' => 'light',
'type' => 'image',
'size' => 'normal',
'defer' => true,
'async' => true,
)
)
));
// ...
}

Support Google's Invisible is super easy:


public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)
{
// ...
$builder->add('recaptcha', EWZRecaptchaType::class, array(
'attr' => array(
'options' => array(
'theme' => 'light',
'type' => 'image',
'size' => 'invisible', // set size to invisible
'defer' => true,
'async' => true,
'callback' => 'onReCaptchaSuccess', // callback will be set by default if not defined (along with JS function that validate the form on success)
'bind' => 'btn_submit', // this is the id of the form submit button
// ...
)
)
));
// ...
}

Note: If you use the pre-defined callback, you would need to add recaptcha-form class to your <form> tag.

If you need to configure the language of the captcha depending on your site
language (multisite languages) you can pass the language with the "language"
option:


public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)
{
// ...
$builder->add('recaptcha', EWZRecaptchaType::class, array(
'language' => 'en'
// ...
));
// ...
}

To validate the field use:


use EWZ\Bundle\RecaptchaBundle\Validator\Constraints as Recaptcha;

/**
* @Recaptcha\IsTrue
*/
public $recaptcha;

Another method would consist to pass the validation constraints as an options of your FormType. This way, your data class contains only meaningful properties.
If we take the example from above, the buildForm method would look like this.
Please note that if you set mapped=>false then the annotation will not work. You have to also set constraints:


use EWZ\Bundle\RecaptchaBundle\Form\Type\EWZRecaptchaType;
use EWZ\Bundle\RecaptchaBundle\Validator\Constraints\IsTrue as RecaptchaTrue;

public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)
{
// ...
$builder->add('recaptcha', EWZRecaptchaType::class, array(
'attr' => array(
'options' => array(
'theme' => 'light',
'type' => 'image',
'size' => 'normal'
)
),
'mapped' => false,
'constraints' => array(
new RecaptchaTrue()
)
));
// ...

The form template resource is now auto registered via an extension of the container.
However, you can always implement your own custom form widget.

PHP:

setTheme($form, array('EWZRecaptchaBundle:Form')) ?>

widget($form['recaptcha'], array(
'attr' => array(
'options' => array(
'theme' => 'light',
'type' => 'image',
'size' => 'normal'
),
),
)) ?>

Twig:

{% form_theme form '@EWZRecaptcha/Form/ewz_recaptcha_widget.html.twig' %}

{{ form_widget(form.recaptcha, { 'attr': {
'options' : {
'theme': 'light',
'type': 'image',
'size': 'normal'
},
} }) }}

If you are not using a form, you can still implement the reCAPTCHA field
using JavaScript:

PHP:

{% form_theme form '@EWZRecaptcha/Form/ewz_recaptcha_widget.html.twig' %}

{{ form_widget(form.recaptcha, { 'attr': {
'options' : {
'theme' : 'custom',
},
} }) }}

v3 Usage

When creating a new form class add the following line to create the field:


use EWZ\Bundle\RecaptchaBundle\Form\Type\EWZRecaptchaV3Type;

public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)
{
// ...
$builder->add('recaptcha', EWZRecaptchaV3Type::class);
// ...
}

You can pass the action to reCAPTCHA with the "action_name" option (see https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/v3#actions for further information)::


use EWZ\Bundle\RecaptchaBundle\Form\Type\EWZRecaptchaType;

public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)
{
// ...
$builder->add('recaptcha', EWZRecaptchaType::class, array(
'action_name' => 'contact'
));
// ...
}

To validate the field use:


use EWZ\Bundle\RecaptchaBundle\Validator\Constraints as Recaptcha;

/**
* @Recaptcha\IsTrueV3
*/
public $recaptcha;

Another method would consist to pass the validation constraints as an options of your FormType. This way, your data class contains only meaningful properties.
If we take the example from above, the buildForm method would look like this. You have to also set constraints:


use EWZ\Bundle\RecaptchaBundle\Form\Type\EWZRecaptchaV3Type;
use EWZ\Bundle\RecaptchaBundle\Validator\Constraints\IsTrueV3;

public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)
{
// ...
$builder->add('recaptcha', EWZRecaptchaV3Type::class, array(
'action_name' => 'contact',
'constraints' => array(
new IsTrueV3()
)
));
// ...

Advanced Usage

It is possible to register reCAPTCHA form services. To accomplish this, enter the service definition as follows (in this example we did it in PHP):


$ewzRecaptchaConfiguration = array();
$ewzRecaptchaConfiguration['enabled'] = isset($_ENV['RECAPTCHA_PUBLIC'], $_ENV['RECAPTCHA_PRIVATE']);
$ewzRecaptchaConfiguration['public_key'] = $_ENV['RECAPTCHA_PUBLIC'] ?? null;
$ewzRecaptchaConfiguration['private_key'] = $_ENV['RECAPTCHA_PRIVATE'] ?? null;
$ewzRecaptchaConfiguration['api_host'] = 'recaptcha.net';
$ewzRecaptchaConfiguration['version'] = 3;

$ewzRecaptchaConfiguration['service_definition'] = array();
$ewzRecaptchaConfiguration['service_definition'][] = [
'service_name' => 'ContactRecaptchaService',
'options' => [
'action_name' => 'form'
]
];

// Add more form services here

// ...
$container->loadFromExtension('ewz_recaptcha', $ewzRecaptchaConfiguration);
// ...

Now the services are now accessible with ewz_recaptcha.[service_name]. They can be registered to your form type class:


namespace MyNamespace\DependencyInjection;

use MyNamespace\Form\ContactType;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\ContainerBuilder;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Reference;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Extension\Extension;

class ContactFormExtension extends Extension
{

public function load(array $configs, ContainerBuilder $container)
{
$container->register(ContactType::class)
->addArgument(new Reference('ewz_recaptcha.ContactRecaptchaService'))
->addTag('form.type');
}
}
// ...

The form type class itself uses the injected service this way:


namespace MyNamespace\Form;

use Symfony\Component\Form\AbstractType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormBuilderInterface;

class ContactType extends AbstractType
{
/** @var FormBuilderInterface */
private $recaptcha;

public function __construct(?FormBuilderInterface $recaptcha)
{
$this->recaptcha = $recaptcha;
}

public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
// ...
if(null !== $this->recaptcha) {
$builder->add($this->recaptcha);
}
// ...
}
