Solve captchas yourself without having to pay for services like 2captcha for use in automated projects.

Project description

CaptchaHarvester

Solve captchas yourself without having to pay for services like 2captcha for use in automated projects.

use cases

This project allows you to solve Google's V2 and V3 ReCaptchas as well as hCaptchas. However, since Google's V3 ReCaptchas are based on a rating system of your browser and browsing habits, it's slightly less reliable.

help

If you need help or want to ask questions: checkout the harvester's dedicated discord server.

setup

PyPi

pip install captcha-harvester

the dev branch

Sometimes there will be updates I'm working on that won't be pushed to the master branch/PyPi because I haven't had time to test them. Sometimes these patches will fix problems you experience in the stable branch, but if things get buggy don't be surprised.

pip install https://github.com/NoahCardoza/CaptchaHarvester/archive/dev.zip

usage

> harvester

This will setup an HTTP server at https://127.0.0.1:5000 by default.

If you are running MacOS/Windows and have the Brave Browser or Google Chrome, all you have to do is pass the -b/--browser flag set to either chrome or brave. This will automatically open a new instance of Brave/Chrome under a temporary profile with and map the domain to the local server.

NOTE: Without the -b/--browser only the server will start up, without the browser. You won't be able to access the site correctly on your normal browsers because the host won't be correctly mapped to the local server. This could be useful if you want to open the browser with your own command line options or you already have one running from a previous session.

If you would like to come up with an automated solution for your OS, I am open to PR requests.

> harvester -h
usage: harvester.py [-h] -k SITE_KEY -d DOMAIN [-H HOST] [-p PORT]
                    [-b {chrome,brave}] [-r] [-e LOAD_EXTENSION] [-v]
                    {recaptcha-v2,recaptcha-v3,hcaptcha}

positional arguments:
  {recaptcha-v2,recaptcha-v3,hcaptcha}
                        the type of captcha you are want to solve

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -k SITE_KEY, --site-key SITE_KEY
                        the sitekey used by the captcha on page
  -d DOMAIN, --domain DOMAIN
                        the domain for which you want to solve captchas
  -H HOST, --host HOST  defaults to 127.0.0.1
  -p PORT, --port PORT  defaults to 5000
  -b {chrome,brave}, --browser {chrome,brave}
                        which browser to open on launch
  -r, --restart-browser
                        if this flag is not passed, a new instance of the
                        browser will be opened. this flag is most helpful when
                        solving Googles ReCaptchas because if you restat your
                        main profile you'll most likely be logged into Google
                        and will be given an easier time on the captchas
  -e LOAD_EXTENSION, --load-extension LOAD_EXTENSION
                        loads unpacked extensions when starting the browser,
                        to load multiple extensions sepparate the paths with
                        commas (must be used with -b/--browser)
  -v, --verbose         show more logging

Solveing V2 Captchas with Buster

You might find it useful to use Buster when solving V2 Captchas. You can clone and build the extension for chrome, and then pass the path of the built extension to harvester with the -e/--load-extension flag.

ReCaptcha: V2 vs. V3

When solving Google's v3 captchas, you should login to a Google Account first. The v3 captcha's work of a raiting system of your browsing habits. They are a little finicky compared to their v2 predecessors. If the tokens stop working, you should start using a different Google Account or wait a little bit between relaoding the captcha harvester page.

accessing the tokens

You can either access the tokens from another python project/process by using the handy fetch.token function I included:

from harvester import fetch

server_address = ('127.0.0.1', 5000)
token = fetch.token(server_address)
print('token:', token)

Alternativly: You can check out example.py to see how to progamatically start the server and access the tokens by integrating the harvester with your existsing (or new) code.

Additionally, if your other project isn't using Python, you can call /token which will return one token and remove it from the Queue. If no tokens exists it will return HTTP error code 418 "I'm a teapot."

NOTE: if you are making requests from another program, you'll get SSL errors because the server isn't really who it claims to be. Make sure you configure your program to ignore these errors.
