"""Death by Captcha HTTP and socket API clients.
There are two types of Death by Captcha (DBC hereinafter) API: HTTP and
socket ones. Both offer the same functionalily, with the socket API
sporting faster responses and using way less connections.
To access the socket API, use SocketClient class; for the HTTP API, use
HttpClient class. Both are thread-safe. SocketClient keeps a persistent
connection opened and serializes all API requests sent through it, thus
it is advised to keep a pool of them if you're script is heavily
multithreaded.
Both SocketClient and HttpClient give you the following methods:
get_user()
Returns your DBC account details as a dict with the following keys:
"user": your account numeric ID; if login fails, it will be the only
item with the value of 0;
"rate": your CAPTCHA rate, i.e. how much you will be charged for one
solved CAPTCHA in US cents;
"balance": your DBC account balance in US cents;
"is_banned": flag indicating whether your account is suspended or not.
get_balance()
Returns your DBC account balance in US cents.
get_captcha(cid)
Returns an uploaded CAPTCHA details as a dict with the following keys:
"captcha": the CAPTCHA numeric ID; if no such CAPTCHAs found, it will
be the only item with the value of 0;
"text": the CAPTCHA text, if solved, otherwise None;
"is_correct": flag indicating whether the CAPTCHA was solved correctly
(DBC can detect that in rare cases).
The only argument `cid` is the CAPTCHA numeric ID.
get_text(cid)
Returns an uploaded CAPTCHA text (None if not solved). The only argument
`cid` is the CAPTCHA numeric ID.
report(cid)
Reports an incorrectly solved CAPTCHA. The only argument `cid` is the
CAPTCHA numeric ID. Returns True on success, False otherwise.
upload(captcha)
Uploads a CAPTCHA. The only argument `captcha` can be either file-like
object (any object with `read` method defined, actually, so StringIO
will do), or CAPTCHA image file name. On successul upload you'll get
the CAPTCHA details dict (see get_captcha() method).
NOTE: AT THIS POINT THE UPLOADED CAPTCHA IS NOT SOLVED YET! You have
to poll for its status periodically using get_captcha() or get_text()
method until the CAPTCHA is solved and you get the text.
decode(captcha, timeout=DEFAULT_TIMEOUT)
A convenient method that uploads a CAPTCHA and polls for its status
periodically, but no longer than `timeout` (defaults to 60 seconds).
If solved, you'll get the CAPTCHA details dict (see get_captcha()
method for details). See upload() method for details on `captcha`
argument.
