Quick Start

1. Text CAPTCHA

Generates an image-based CAPTCHA with configurable text, colors, and dimensions. All images include random distortions and anti-aliasing.

from InnoCaptcha.text import TextCaptcha

# Basic usage
captcha = TextCaptcha()
captcha.create("abs")
print(captcha.verify("abs"))    # True
captcha.save(r"captcha.png")

# Custom dimensions and colors
captcha = TextCaptcha(
    width=350,
    height=100,
    color=(255, 137, 6),
    background=(15, 14, 23)
)
captcha.create("abc123")
print(captcha.verify("wrong"))  # False
captcha.save(r"captcha.jpg")

Constructor Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
width	int or None	300	Image width in pixels.
height	int or None	80	Image height in pixels.
color	tuple[int, int, int]	(0, 0, 0)	Foreground (text) color in RGB.
background	tuple[int, int, int]	(255, 255, 255)	Background color in RGB.

create(chars: str) — The text string to render in the CAPTCHA image. Required.

save() Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
path	str	'captcha.png'	Full file path or file name to write the image.

Notes:

• Uses secrets for cryptographically strong randomness.
• Rendering can be tuned via module-level constants such as CHARACTER_OFFSET_DX and WORD_SPACE_PROBABILITY.

2. Math CAPTCHA

Generates arithmetic challenges (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division). All results are integers — the problem regenerates automatically if division would produce a fraction.

from InnoCaptcha.math import MathCaptcha

challenge = MathCaptcha()
print(challenge.get_question())  # e.g., "7 + 3 = ?"
print(challenge.answer)          # e.g., 10

print(challenge.verify(10))      # True
print(challenge.verify("10"))    # True — string input accepted
