Lest Integration in your Android App.
Google reCAPTCHA Integrating souce code
Step 1: Add Dependency on our App build Gradle.
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-safetynet:17.0.0'
Step 2:- Make a UI for Google reCAPTCHA.
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:padding="5dp">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/GoogleCaptchaText"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="Google Captcha "
android:textAppearance="@style/page_title" />
<CheckBox
android:id="@+id/GoogleCaptcha"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:buttonTint="@color/new_Blue" />
</LinearLayout>
Step 3: Add your java class Implication follow these codes.
add this method for your ReCaptcha generation in Android. You can add whare you want to show reCaptcha like on button click and Checkbox Click show.
public void Catcha(){
SafetyNet.getClient(mActivity).verifyWithRecaptcha("Enter Site_key")
.addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<SafetyNetApi.RecaptchaTokenResponse>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(SafetyNetApi.RecaptchaTokenResponse recaptchaTokenResponse) {
// Indicates communication with reCAPTCHA service was
// successful.
String userResponseToken = recaptchaTokenResponse.getTokenResult();
if (!userResponseToken.isEmpty()) {
handleCaptchaResult(userResponseToken);
// Validate the user response token using the
// reCAPTCHA siteverify API.
Log.e(TAG, "VALIDATION STEP NEEDED");
}else {
GoogleCaptcha.setChecked(false);
}
}
})
.addOnFailureListener(new OnFailureListener() {
@Override
public void onFailure(@NonNull Exception e) {
if (e instanceof ApiException) {
// An error occurred when communicating with the
// reCAPTCHA service. Refer to the status code to
// handle the error appropriately.
GoogleCaptcha.setChecked(false);
ApiException apiException = (ApiException) e;
int statusCode = apiException.getStatusCode();
Log.e(TAG, "Error: " + CommonStatusCodes
.getStatusCodeString(statusCode));
} else {
// A different, unknown type of error occurred.
Log.e(TAG, "Error: " + e.getMessage());
}
}
});
}
The second Method to Send a request to google server to verify your ReCaptcha token.
void handleCaptchaResult(final String responseToken) {
String url = "https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify";
StringRequest request = new StringRequest(Request.Method.POST, url,
new Response.Listener<String>() {
@Override
public void onResponse(String response) {
try {
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject(response);
if(jsonObject.getBoolean("success")){
GoogleCaptchaText.setText("You're not a Robot");
GoogleCaptcha.setChecked(true);
}
} catch (Exception ex) {
Log.d(TAG, "Error message: " + ex.getMessage());
GoogleCaptcha.setChecked(false);
}
}
},
new Response.ErrorListener() {
@Override
public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
GoogleCaptcha.setChecked(false);
Log.d(TAG, "Error message: " + error.getMessage());
}
}) {
@Override
protected Map<String, String> getParams() {
Map<String, String> params = new HashMap<>();
params.put("secret", SITE_SECRET_KEY);
params.put("response", responseToken);
return params;
}
};
request.setRetryPolicy(new DefaultRetryPolicy(
50000,
DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_MAX_RETRIES,
DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_BACKOFF_MULT));
queue.add(request);
}
