python-rucaptcha

Python 3.9+ library to solve CAPTCHAs automatically using RuCaptcha, 2Captcha, or DeathByCaptcha services.

What is this?

This library automates CAPTCHA solving by connecting to third-party services. When your code encounters a CAPTCHA, python-rucaptcha sends it to the service, waits for a human to solve it, and returns the solution to your application.

Supports 30+ CAPTCHA types:

• reCAPTCHA v2/v3, hCaptcha, Cloudflare Turnstile
• Image captchas, Audio captchas
• GeeTest, KeyCaptcha, Amazon WAF, Tencent
• And many more...

Quick Start

1. Install

pip install python-rucaptcha

2. Get an API Key

Sign up at RuCaptcha or 2Captcha, then copy your API key from the dashboard.

3. Solve a CAPTCHA

from python_rucaptcha import HCaptcha

# Your API key
key = "your_api_key_here"

# Solve hCaptcha
result = HCaptcha(aptcha_key=key).captcha_handler(site_url="https://example.com", site_key="abc123")

if result['code'] == 0:
    print(f"Solved! Token: {result['token']}")
else:
    print(f"Error: {result['message']}")

Solving Different CAPTCHA Types

reCAPTCHA v2:

from python_rucaptcha import ReCaptcha

result = ReCaptcha(api_key).captcha_handler(
    site_url="https://example.com",
    site_key="your_site_key"
)

Image CAPTCHA:

from python_rucaptcha import ImageCaptcha

result = ImageCaptcha(api_key).captcha_handler(
    image_link="https://example.com/captcha.jpg"
)

ALTCHA:

from python_rucaptcha import AltchaCaptcha
from python_rucaptcha.core.enums import AltchaEnm

result = AltchaCaptcha(
    rucaptcha_key=api_key,
    websiteURL="https://example.com",
    challengeURL="https://example.com/altcha/challenge",
    method=AltchaEnm.AltchaTaskProxyless,
).captcha_handler()

Using async:

import asyncio
from python_rucaptcha import HCaptcha

async def solve():
    result = await HCaptcha(api_key).aio_captcha_handler(
        site_url="https://example.com",
        site_key="abc123"
    )
    return result

token = asyncio.run(solve())

# Use RuCaptcha
result = HCaptcha("rucaptcha_key", service_type=ServiceEnm.RuCaptcha).captcha_handler(...)

# Use DeathByCaptcha
result = HCaptcha("dbc_user:dbc_pass", service_type=ServiceEnm.DeathByCaptcha).captcha_handler(...)

Testing
