Using DeathByCaptcha API on Ruby? - rrdein - Aug 8, 2014
Tried to post this on BHW but that gay ass site has so many restrictions (telling me there is a URL in the code below; not allowed for new users) that I decided to come and try my luck here. I'm trying to use the DBC API with Ruby and I need a little bit of help. Any help is appreciated.
---------------------
This is my code:
Code
@driver.get("MyURL")
captchaUrl = @driver.find_element(:id, "recaptcha_challenge_image").attribute("src")
client = DeathByCaptcha.http_client('username', 'password')
response = client.decode captchaUrl
dbcfields = response.split('"')
puts dbcfields[9]I get an error on split. I have been trying this different ways (most of which do not use split), but between a poor knowledge of Ruby and some poor documentation for DBC API, I cannot figure this out.
The line, "puts response" outputs results, but the output looks like this:
Code
{"status"=>0, "captcha"=>296866378, "is_correct"=>true, "text"=>"year yestrease"}It is correctly solving the Captcha. However, I cannot extract the response field from the string. I tried using split but I got an "undefined method" for split. I am guessing this means that response is not an actual string.
DBC has several methods for their API, and any solution using the API is acceptable to me as long as I can understand it.
Thank you in advance.
