Google reCAPTCHA Extension

mtotheikle

I'm happy to release the first beta version of the Google reCAPTCHA extension! On GitHub You will find a README.md file with some basic installation instructions.

Please feel free to report issues and give feedback on GitHub or in this discussion.

I created this as way to mess with extension library of Flarum -- which I must say I'm impressed with!

@Toby has talked about including this in the core as well so hopefully that will happen this week.

This is awesome, great work!!! Extensions here we come boys!!!

Edit: Why is this extension 27mbs? @_@.....

Franz

Wombat Why is this extension 27mbs? @_@.....

Yeah, that shouldn't happen. The archive still contains the node_modules folder, for example. That's quite big.

@mtotheikle When you find the time, please upload a new version without these files. Some good inspiration for building the archive can be found here.

Franz Agh, sorry about that guys. First extension so figured there would be something that comes up.

Thanks for pointing out https://github.com/flarum/flarum/blob/c214d47ccfe5a18bfd58de07e4c72fd0b731920b/build.sh#L44-L79 @Franz.

I had idea that there should should be a generic build script for extensions that's easy for developers to use. See this issue. I'll see what I can put together based off that link you provided.

Also, for people trying to install, note that this PR needs to be merged before it will work, https://github.com/flarum/core/pull/403

The ZIP I downloaded (flarum-recaptcha-master.zip) was only 172 KB expanded...

Franz

Dominion That probably doesn't contain the pre-built files, though. 😛

Wombat

Dominion The author says go to go this page and download: https://github.com/mtotheikle/flarum-recaptcha/releases

But, if you download the .zip, on the front page of the github you only get the modification I guess.. weird hmm

Dominion

Aha, I see ... I think ... (゜.゜)

@Toby I think it's time for a video on extensions and discuss how to create, use the API, etc. I know i'd watch it ~

mtotheikle

Release file has been re-uploaded! Much smaller this time.

It's late my time so didn't get chance to test as much as I'd like or do the renaming. Will be able to tackle these tomorrow.

mtotheikle

Version 0.1.0 has been released! This includes namespace update, naming updates and some minor changes.

@Franz let me know if you notice anything else preventing this from going to Flarum repo

GOD

I love that Flarum is not adding bloatware to their code. But this is one of the very few things that would be good to add in beta 3.

SneakyDave

Take your time, not a necessity at this point. Work out the bigger bugs first.

mtotheikle

I have not, just noticed that a new version was released!

GOD

This extension would seem to be incompatible with beta 2. It will actually prevent registration.

GOD

The extension will be depreciated (not necessary) in an upcoming release of Flarum.

Is this extension discontinued? I'd really like to use it since it hasn't been implemented into flarum yet. Or did I miss something?
