The GregwarCaptchaBundle adds support for a "captcha" form type for the Symfony2 form component.

Ultimately, the GregwarCaptchaBundle files should be downloaded to the 'vendor/bundles/Gregwar/CaptchaBundle' directory.

You can accomplish this several ways, depending on your personal preference. The first method is the standard Symfony2 method.

Using the vendors script

Add the following lines to your deps file:

    [GregwarCaptchaBundle]
        git=git://github.com/Gregwar/CaptchaBundle.git
        target=/bundles/Gregwar/CaptchaBundle

Now, run the vendors script to download the bundle:

$ php bin/vendors install

Using submodules

If you prefer instead to use git submodules, then run the following:

$ git submodule add git://github.com/Gregwar/CaptchaBundle.git vendor/bundles/Gregwar/CaptchaBundle
$ git submodule update --init

Now you will need to add the Gregwar namespace to your autoloader:

<?php
// app/autoload.php

$loader->registerNamspaces(array(
    // ...
    'Gregwar' => __DIR__.'/../vendor/bundles',
));

Finally, enable the bundle in the kernel:

<?php
// app/appKernel.php

public function registerBundles()
{
    $bundles = array(
        // ...
        new Gregwar\CaptchaBundle\GregwarCaptchaBundle(),
    );
}

Add the following configuration to your app/config/config.yml:

gregwar_captcha: ~

You can use the "captcha" type in your forms this way:

<?php
    // ...
    $builder->add('captcha', 'captcha'); // That's all !
    // ...

Note that the generated image will be embeded in the HTML document, to avoid dealing with route and subrequests.

You can define the following type option :

• width: the width of the captcha image (default=120)
• height: the height of the captcha image (default=40)
• length: the length of the captcha (number of chars, default 5)
• quality: jpeg quality of captchas (default=15)
• charset: the charset used for code generation (default=abcdefhjkmnprstuvwxyz23456789)
• font: the font to use (default=Generator/Font/captcha.ttf)
• keep_value: the value will be the same until the form is posted, even if the page is refreshed (default=true)
• as_file: if set to true an image file will be created instead of embedding to please IE6/7 (default=false)
• image_folder: name of folder for captcha images relative to public web folder in case as_file ist set to true (default="captcha")
• web_path: absolute path to public web folder (default="%kernel.root_dir%/../web")
• gc_freq: frequency of garbage collection in fractions of 1 (default=100)
• expiration: maximum lifetime of captcha image files in minutes (default=60)

Example :

<?php
    // ...
    $builder->add('captcha', 'captcha', array(
        'width' => 200,
        'height' => 50,
        'length' => 6,
    ));

You can also set these options for your whole application using the gregwar_captcha configuration entry in your config.yml file:

gregwar_captcha:
    width: 200
    height: 50
    length: 6

The widget support the standard symfony theming, see the documentation for details on how to accomplish this.

The default rendering is:

{% block captcha_widget %}
{% spaceless %}
    <img src="{{ captcha_code }}" title="captcha" width="{{ captcha_width }}" height="{{ captcha_height }}" />
    {{ form_widget(form) }}
{% spaceless %}
{% endblock %}

If you choose to use image files instead of embedding the widget will execute a garbage collection randomly and delete images that exceed the configured lifetime.
