Captcha can be enabled for this web client / home server. This file explains how to do that.
|
||||||
|
The captcha mechanism used is Google's ReCaptcha. This requires API keys from Google.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Getting keys
|
||||||
|
------------
|
||||||
|
Requires a public/private key pair from:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Setting Private ReCaptcha Key
|
||||||
|
-----------------------------
|
||||||
|
The private key is a config option on the home server config. If it is not
|
||||||
|
visible, you can generate it via --generate-config. Set the following value:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
recaptcha_private_key: YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In addition, you MUST enable captchas via:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
enable_registration_captcha: true
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Setting Public ReCaptcha Key
|
||||||
|
----------------------------
|
||||||
|
The web client will look for the global variable webClientConfig for config
|
||||||
|
options. You should put your ReCaptcha public key there like so:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
webClientConfig = {
|
||||||
|
useCaptcha: true,
|
||||||
|
recaptcha_public_key: "YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY"
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This should be put in webclient/config.js which is already .gitignored, rather
|
||||||
|
than in the web client source files. You MUST set useCaptcha to true else a
|
||||||
|
ReCaptcha widget will not be generated.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Configuring IP used for auth
|
||||||
|
----------------------------
|
||||||
|
The ReCaptcha API requires that the IP address of the user who solved the
|
||||||
|
captcha is sent. If the client is connecting through a proxy or load balancer,
|
||||||
|
it may be required to use the X-Forwarded-For (XFF) header instead of the origin
|
||||||
|
IP address. This can be configured as an option on the home server like so:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
captcha_ip_origin_is_x_forwarded: true
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

ReCaptcha Keys
