'TwoCaptcha' object has no attribute 'normal'


I'm working on a project where I want to integrate a captcha-bypassing feature. I've been using the 2captcha service for this and it was quite successful until I switched from Windows to Linux (Ubuntu 22.04). I keep receiving the same error - 'TwoCaptcha' object has no attribute 'normal' when I try to run this function:

def solve_captcha(image_path):
    solver = TwoCaptcha(api_key)
    try:
        result = solver.normal(image_path)
    except Exception as e:
        logging.error(e)
    else:
        return result['code']

The problem is, that I have the same library version installed on both systems. I didn't change anything in the function code above after transitioning, and official documentation includes said attribute in its examples.

Can anyone help me understand the issue?

I've tried to search both: library documentation (https://pypi.org/project/2captcha-python/), as well as examples on the official service's webpage (https://2captcha.com/api-docs/normal-captcha), but they both include 'normal' attributes in their codes.


Solution

  • So... Found the problem and shearing the solution for people like me:

    Apparently, I've been using a deprecated version of 2capltcha's dependency (called 'TwoCaptcha').

    The active one is called '2captcha-python'.

    The deprecated one just didn't have the needed functionality
