React Arcaptcha Component Library

Description

Arcaptcha Component Library for ReactJS.

Arcaptcha is a drop-replacement for reCAPTCHA and hCaptcha that protects user privacy, rewards websites, and helps companies get their data labeled.

Sign up at Arcaptcha to get your sitekey today. You need a sitekey to use this library.

Installation

You can install this library via npm with:

npm i arcaptcha-react

Usage

The requirement for usage are the site-key prop. The component will automatically include and load the Arcaptcha API library and append it to the body.

Automatic Fallback URLs

The component now includes automatic fallback URL loading. If the primary widget URL fails to load, it will automatically try alternative URLs in sequence:

1. widget.arcaptcha.ir
2. widget.arcaptcha.net
3. widget.arcaptcha.co

Each URL attempt has a configurable timeout (default: 10 seconds). You can monitor URL loading failures using the url_failed_callback prop and listen for full script-loading failure using script_loading_failed_callback.

• Basic:

import React from "react";
import { ArcaptchaWidget } from "arcaptcha-react";

class YOUR_COMPONENT_NAME extends Component {
  constructor() {
    super();
    this.ArRef = React.createRef();
  }
  getToken = (token) => {
    //do something with your token.
  };
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <ArcaptchaWidget
          ref={this.ArRef}
          site-key="YOUR_SITE_KEY"
          callback={this.getToken}
          theme="dark" //it's not required. Default is light
          lang="en" //it's not required. Default is fa
        />
      </div>
    );
  }
}

• With URL failure monitoring and custom timeout:

import React from "react";
import { ArcaptchaWidget } from "arcaptcha-react";

class YOUR_COMPONENT_NAME extends Component {
  constructor() {
    super();
    this.ArRef = React.createRef();
  }

  getToken = (token) => {
    //do something with your token.
  };

  handleUrlFailure = (info) => {
    console.log(`URL failed: ${info.url}`);
    console.log(`Error: ${info.error}`);
    console.log(`Attempt ${info.attemptNumber} of ${info.totalAttempts}`);
    if (info.isLastAttempt) {
      console.log("All URLs failed to load");
    }
  };

  handleScriptLoadingFailed = (info) => {
    console.log("All fallback URLs failed");
    console.log(`Last error: ${info.error}`);
    console.log(`Tried URLs: ${info.urls.join(", ")}`);
  };

  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <ArcaptchaWidget
          ref={this.ArRef}
          site-key="YOUR_SITE_KEY"
          callback={this.getToken}
          timeout={15000} // 15 seconds per URL attempt
          url_failed_callback={this.handleUrlFailure}
          script_loading_failed_callback={this.handleScriptLoadingFailed}
          theme="dark"
          lang="en"
        />
      </div>
    );
  }
}

  constructor() {
    super();
    this.ArRef = React.createRef();
  }
  onSuccess = (token) => {
    //do something with your token.
  };
  execute = () => {
    this.ArRef.current.execute();
  };
  reset = () => {
    this.ArRef.current.resetCaptcha();
  };
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <ArcaptchaWidget
          ref={this.ArRef}

close()	Programmatically trigger a close challenge request. You can use this to close challenge container

Error Handling

The component automatically handles script loading failures by trying fallback URLs. The url_failed_callback provides detailed information about each failure:

url_failed_callback={(info) => {
  console.log(`Failed URL: ${info.url}`);
  console.log(`Reason: ${info.error}`);
  console.log(`Attempt: ${info.attemptNumber}/${info.totalAttempts}`);

  if (info.isLastAttempt) {
    // All URLs failed - show user-friendly error message
    alert('Unable to load captcha. Please check your connection.');
  }
}}

You can also listen when all script URLs fail:

script_loading_failed_callback={(info) => {
  console.log(`All URLs failed. Last error: ${info.error}`);
  console.log(`Tried URLs: ${info.urls.join(", ")}`);
}}
