## Installation

Install the package using your preferred dependency manager.

### uv

```bash
uv add pyturnstile
```

### pip

```bash
pip install pyturnstile
```

## Usage

> ### 💡 TIP
>
> You can follow [this documentation](https://developers.cloudflare.com/turnstile/get-started/) and create your own Turnstile secret key at the [Cloudflare Turnstile dashboard](https://dash.cloudflare.com/?to=/:account/turnstile).

### Quick Start

PyTurnstile provides two ways to validate tokens:

#### 1. Using the `Turnstile` class (Recommended)

```python
from pyturnstile import Turnstile

turnstile = Turnstile(secret="your-secret-key")

response = await turnstile.async_validate(token="user-token-from-frontend")

# or validate synchronously
# response = turnstile.validate(token="user-token-from-frontend")

if response.success:
    print("✅ Token is valid!")
```

#### 2. Using functions directly

```python
from pyturnstile import validate, async_validate

response = await async_validate(
    token="user-token-from-frontend",
    secret="your-secret-key"
)

# or validate synchronously
# response = validate(
#     token="user-token-from-frontend",
#     secret="your-secret-key"
# )

if response.success:
    print("✅ Token is valid!")
```

### Optional Parameters

> ### ℹ️ NOTE
>
> For more details on all available parameters, see the [Cloudflare documentation](https://developers.cloudflare.com/turnstile/get-started/server-side-validation/#required-parameters)

```python
response = turnstile.validate(
    token="user-token",               # The token from the client-side widget
    idempotency_key="unique-uuid",    # Optional: UUID for retry protection
    expected_remoteip="203.0.113.1",  # Optional: The visitor's IP address that the challenge response must match
    expected_hostname="example.com",  # Optional: The hostname that the challenge response must match
    expected_action="submit_form",    # Optional: The action identifier that the challenge must match
    timeout=10                        # Optional: request timeout in seconds
)
```

### Response Object

> ### ℹ️ NOTE
>
> For more details on all response fields, see the [Cloudflare documentation](https://developers.cloudflare.com/turnstile/get-started/server-side-validation/#response-fields)

The `TurnstileResponse` object contains:

```python
response.success                   # bool: Whether validation succeeded
response.error_codes               # list[TurnstileErrorCodes]: Error codes (if any)
response.challenge_ts              # str: ISO timestamp of challenge completion
response.hostname                  # str: Hostname where challenge was served
response.action                    # str: Custom action identifier
response.cdata                     # str: Custom data payload from client-side
response.metadata["ephemeral_id"]  # Device fingerprint ID (Enterprise only)
```
