# Humanizer

Humanizer is a very simple CAPTCHA method. It has a localized YAML file with questions and answers which is used to validate that the user is an actual human. Any model that includes ActiveModel::Validations should work. Our aim is to be database and mapper agnostic, so if it doesn't work for you, open an issue. Humanizer works with Rails 3–7.

## Installation

Add `humanizer` to your Gemfile:

```ruby
gem "humanizer"
```

Bundle and run the generator in terminal:

```sh
bundle
rails g humanizer
```

## Advanced Installation

* Install all locales: `rails g humanizer --all-locales`
* Show available locales: `rails g humanizer --show-locales`
* Install selected locales: `rails g humanizer en fi de`

## Usage

1. In your model, include Humanizer and add the #require_human_on method, example:

```ruby
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
include Humanizer
require_human_on :create
end
```

2. Ask the question in the form, example:

```erb
<%= f.label :humanizer_answer, @model.humanizer_question %>
<%= f.text_field :humanizer_answer %>
<%= f.hidden_field :humanizer_question_id %>
```

3. If you are using attr_accessible, remember to whitelist `:humanizer_answer` and `:humanizer_question_id`.

4. If you are using strong_parameters, remember to permit `:humanizer_answer` and `:humanizer_question_id`.

## Usage without a model

Alternatively, you many use the built in HumanizerHelper class instead of using your own model (useful for something like a contact form if you don't have a model/class for this). Behavior is the same including `Humanizer` on a model, but all setters are available as optional arguments when initializing a HumanizerHelper instance.

1. Example initialization code(controller):

```ruby
@humanizer_helper = HumanizerHelper.new
```

2. Example rails form usage:

```erb
<%= label_tag :humanizer_answer, @humanizer_helper.humanizer_question %>
<%= text_field_tag :humanizer_answer %>
<%= hidden_field_tag :humanizer_question_id, @humanizer_helper.humanizer_question_id %>
```

3. Example response handling:

```ruby
humanizer_helper = HumanizerHelper.new(humanizer_answer: params[:humanizer_answer], humanizer_question_id: params[:humanizer_question_id])
if humanizer_helper.humanizer_correct_answer?
do_stuff
end
```

## Testing

A HumanizerHelper instance provides an additional `get_correct_humanizer_answer` method to make testing easier. Example:

```ruby
question_id = find('#humanizer_question_id', visible: false).value #gets humanizer question id from example form above
humanizer_helper = HumanizerHelper.new(humanizer_question_id: question_id)
fill_in 'humanizer_answer', with: humanizer_helper.get_correct_humanizer_answer #fills in answer field from example above with the correct answer
```

## Configuration

Default translations can be found in config/locales/

You might want to add/change question and answer pairs. This can be easily done by adding/modifying entries in locales file.

## Skipping validation

You might want to skip the humanizer validations on your tests or rails console.

You can just have a simple attribute on your model and use it to bypass the validation. Here's an example:

```ruby
attr_accessor :bypass_humanizer
require_human_on :create, unless: :bypass_humanizer
```

Now when bypass_humanizer is true, validation will be skipped.

## Reloading questions

In case you want to give your users the option to change the question, there's a #change_humanizer_question method to help you.

To make sure the current question doesn't get asked again, you can pass the current question id to the method. For example:

```ruby
@user.change_humanizer_question(params[:user][:humanizer_question_id])
```
