# gomcaptcha: Go library that implements mCaptcha PoW
## Overview
Normal usage within mCaptcha ecosystem will look like this:
1. mCaptcha server presents challenge parameters (`difficulty_factor`, salt, and challenge phrase)
2. Visitor computes Proof-of-Work using parameters received
3. Visitor submits Proof-of-Work to mCaptcha server and receives
authorization token if Proof-of-Work is valid.
4. Visitor submits Proof-of-Work to protected resource/server
This library implements step #2 from this process.
## Dependencies
1. [Rust compiler](https://rustup.rs): This library is a thin wrapper
over [mcaptcha-pow-ffi](./mcaptcha-pow-ffi), which has to be compiled
first before this library can be used.
2. Go
3. GNU Make
Compile Rust FFI library:
```bash
make rust.build
```
Run example:
```bash
make example
```
## Usage
Please refer to [example](./examples/main.go).
