Usage

Put rucaptcha in your Gemfile:

gem 'rucaptcha'

Create config/initializers/rucaptcha.rb

RuCaptcha.configure do
  # Color style, default: :colorful, allows: [:colorful, :black_white]
  # self.style = :colorful
  # Custom captcha code expire time if you need, default: 2 minutes
  # self.expires_in = 120
  # [Requirement / 重要]
  # Store Captcha code where, this config more like Rails config.cache_store
  # default: Read config info from `Rails.application.config.cache_store`
  # But RuCaptcha requirements cache_store not in [:null_store, :memory_store, :file_store]
  # 默认：会从 Rails 配置的 cache_store 里面读取相同的配置信息，并尝试用可以运行的方式，用于存储验证码字符
  # 但如果是 [:null_store, :memory_store, :file_store] 之类的，你可以通过下面的配置项单独给 RuCaptcha 配置 cache_store
  self.cache_store = :mem_cache_store
end

Controller app/controller/account_controller.rb

When you called verify_rucaptcha?, it will uses value from params[:_rucaptcha] to validation.

class AccountController < ApplicationController
  def create
    @user = User.new(params[:user])
    if verify_rucaptcha?(@user) && @user.save
      redirect_to root_path, notice: 'Sign up successed.'
    else
      render 'account/new'
    end
  end
end

class ForgotPasswordController < ApplicationController
  def create
    # without any args
    if verify_rucaptcha?
      to_send_email
    else
      redirect_to '/forgot-password', alert: 'Invalid captcha code.'
    end
  end
end

TIP: Sometime you may need keep last verified captcha code in session on verify_rucaptcha? method call, you can use keep_session: true. For example: verify_rucaptcha? @user, keep_session: true.

View app/views/account/new.html.erb

<form method="POST">
  ...
  <div class="form-group">
    <%= rucaptcha_input_tag(class: 'form-control', placeholder: 'Input Captcha') %>
    <%= rucaptcha_image_tag(alt: 'Captcha') %>
  </div>
  ...

  <div class="form-group">
    <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
  </div>
</form>

And if you are use Devise, you can read this to add validation: RuCaptcha with Devise.
