Usage

You can see multiple use cases on the example website.

Basic Usage

import type { HCaptchaExecuteResponse } from "solid-hcaptcha";
import HCaptcha from "solid-hcaptcha";

const App: Component = () => {
  const handleVerify = (token: string, eKey: string) => {
    console.log(token, eKey);
  };

  return (
    <HCaptcha
      sitekey="10000000-ffff-ffff-ffff-000000000001"
      onVerify={token => console.log(token)}
    />
  );
};

export default App;

Programmatic Usage

import type {
  HCaptchaFunctions,
  HCaptchaExecuteResponse
} from "solid-hcaptcha";

import HCaptcha from "solid-hcaptcha";
import { createSignal } from "solid-js";

const App: Component = () => {
  const [captchaResponse, setCaptchaResponse] = createSignal<HCaptchaExecuteResponse | null>(null);
  let hcaptcha: HCaptchaFunctions | undefined;

  const submitCaptcha = async () => {
    if (!hcaptcha) return; // Check if the widget has loaded.

    // Execute the captcha and get the response.
    const response = await hcaptcha.execute();

    setCaptchaResponse(response);
    console.log("stored response", response);
  };

  return (
    <div>
      <HCaptcha
        sitekey="10000000-ffff-ffff-ffff-000000000001"
        onLoad={hcaptcha_instance => (hcaptcha = hcaptcha_instance)}
        size="invisible"
      />

      <button onClick={submitCaptcha}>
        Open captcha
      </button>
    </div>
  );
};

export default App;

API

Props

Name	Values/Type	Required	Default	Description
`sitekey`	`string`	Yes	`-`	This is your sitekey, this allows you to load captcha. If you need a sitekey, please visit hCaptcha, and sign up to get your sitekey.

`config`	`HCaptchaConfig`	No	`{}`	Advanced configuration for the hCaptcha component.

Advanced Configuration

All the parameters are optional.

Name	Values/Type	Default	Description
`recaptchacompat`	`boolean`	`true`	Disable drop-in replacement for reCAPTCHA with `false` to prevent hCaptcha from injecting into `window.grecaptcha`.
`hl`	`string` (ISO 639-2 code)	`auto`	hCaptcha auto-detects language via the user’s browser. This overrides that to set a default UI language. See language codes.
`apihost`	`string`	`-`	See enterprise docs.
`assethost`	`string`	`-`	See enterprise docs.
`endpoint`	`string`	`-`	See enterprise docs.

Events Props

Event	Params	Description
`onError`	`error: HCaptchaError`	When an error occurs. Component will reset immediately after an error.
`onVerify`	`token: string, eKey: string`	When challenge is completed. The response `token` and an `eKey` (session ID) are passed along.
`onExpire`	`-`	When the current token expires.
`onLoad`	`hcaptcha: HCaptchaFunctions`	When the hCaptcha API loads. The hCaptcha instance is passed along. You can store them to use, later, its methods.
`onOpen`	`-`	When the user display of a challenge starts.
`onClose`	`-`	When the user dismisses a challenge.
`onChallengeExpired`	`-`	When the user display of a challenge times out with no answer.

Methods from hCaptcha instance (type `HCaptchaFunctions`)

Method	Description
`execute()`	Programmatically trigger a challenge request. Additionally, this method is run asynchronously and returns a promise with the `token` and `eKey` when the challenge is completed.
`executeSync()`	Programmatically trigger a challenge request but doesn’t return the captcha response.
`getRespKey()`	Get the current challenge reference ID.
`getResponse()`	Get the current challenge response token from completed challenge.
`renderCaptcha(onReady?: () => unknown)`	Manually render the hCaptcha widget.
`removeCaptcha(callback?: () => unknown)`	Manually remove the hCaptcha widget from the DOM.
`resetCaptcha()`	Reset the current challenge.
`setData()`	See enterprise docs.

NOTE: Make sure to reset the hCaptcha state when you submit your form by calling the method .resetCaptcha on your hCaptcha Solid Component ! Passcodes are one-time use, so if your user submits the same passcode twice then it will be rejected by the server the second time.

Please note that “invisible” simply means that no hCaptcha button will be rendered. Whether a challenge shows up will depend on the sitekey difficulty level. Note to hCaptcha Enterprise (BotStop) users: select “Passive” or “99.9% Passive” modes to get this No-CAPTCHA behavior.
