discapty 2.2.0

DisCapTy help you generate obfuscated images, leaving your code easy.

DisCapTy

DisCapTy is a highly type hinted Python module to generate Captcha images without struggling your mind on how to make your own. Everyone can use it!

Documentation: https://discapty.readthedocs.io/

Installing

DisCapTy is available on PyPi!

pip3 install discapty

To use DisCapTy, you need a Python version equal or greater to 3.7 and below 3.11.

Clone & Test the project

This project is dependant of Poetry, a dependency management tool. You are most likely going to require this tool to correctly interact with the project & its dependencies, check out Poetry's documentation for how to install it.

To clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/Predeactor/DisCapTy.git

To install dependencies: poetry install

To run tests: poetry run python -m unittest

Creating Captcha

For DisCapTy, a Captcha is simply a code with any possible objects that can be returned, for example, it is one code (Like "12345") with an image (Usually a PIL.Image.Image object) This is because DisCapTy uses the concept of generators that are used to generate a captcha from a given code, and it can return anything.

DisCapTy comes with 3 builtin generators:

• TextGenerator : Text based captcha
• WheezyGenerator : Image based captcha
• ImageGenerator : Image based captcha

Creating Captcha manually

import discapty

def generate_a_captcha(initial_input: str) -> discapty.Captcha:
    # This generator returns an obfuscated text.
    captcha_for_user = discapty.TextGenerator().generate(initial_input)
    # Create a Captcha object, the first argument is the clear code, the second is the obfuscated code. Anything goes.
    return discapty.Captcha(initial_input, captcha_for_user)

# Generate your Captcha.
captcha = generate_a_captcha("12345")

# Show the obfuscated code. See https://discapty.readthedocs.io for more information on this object.
show_captcha_to_user(captcha.captcha)

Checking user's input

import discapty

# Generate your Captcha.
captcha: discapty.Captcha = generate_a_captcha("12345")

# This is your user's input here
user_input: str = '12345'

if captcha.check(user_input) is True:
    # The user input is correct
    print("Correct!")
else:
    # The user input is incorrect
    print("Incorrect!")

What's great with the .check method is that you can specify if you need to remove space in the user's input and/or check casing.

Creating Captcha manually is not a recommended way, because DisCapTy comes with its opinionated challenge runner & is inefficient anyway.

Create a Challenge

import discapty

challenge = discapty.Challenge(discapty.TextGenerator(), retries=3)

captcha = challenge.begin()

# We cannot provide typehint here, `captcha` is a `typing.Any` and cannot help you, it'll be your
# job to know what you'll get as a captcha.
send_captcha_to_user(captcha)
user_input: str = get_user_input()

is_correct: bool = challenge.check(user_input)
# If the user's input is correct, the challenge ends, if not, `challenge.attempted_tries` will get
# +1, and if it is greater than the retries that has been set, then an error is raised when using
# `.check`

Please see the documentation for more information on how the library work.
