This is a RubyGem for implementing both OAuth clients and servers in Ruby applications.
See the OAuth specs oauth.net/core/1.0/
sudo gem install oauth
The source code is now hosted on the OAuth GitHub Project github.com/oauth-xx/oauth-ruby
This is a ruby library which is intended to be used in creating Ruby Consumer and Service Provider applications. It is NOT a Rails plugin, but could easily be used for the foundation for such a Rails plugin.
As a matter of fact it has been pulled out from an OAuth Rails Plugin code.google.com/p/oauth-plugin/ which now requires this GEM.
We need to specify the oauth_callback url explicitly, otherwise it defaults to “oob” (Out of Band)
@callback_url = "http://127.0.0.1:3000/oauth/callback"
Create a new consumer instance by passing it a configuration hash:
@consumer = OAuth::Consumer.new("key","secret", :site => "https://agree2")
Start the process by requesting a token
@request_token = @consumer.get_request_token(:oauth_callback => @callback_url) session[:request_token] = @request_token redirect_to @request_token.authorize_url(:oauth_callback => @callback_url)
When user returns create an access_token
@access_token = @request_token.get_access_token @photos = @access_token.get('/photos.xml')
Now that you have an access token, you can use Typhoeus to interact with the OAuth provider if you choose.
require 'oauth/request_proxy/typhoeus_request' oauth_params = {:consumer => oauth_consumer, :token => access_token} hydra = Typhoeus::Hydra.new req = Typhoeus::Request.new(uri, options) # :method needs to be specified in options oauth_helper = OAuth::Client::Helper.new(req, oauth_params.merge(:request_uri => uri)) req.options[:headers].merge!({"Authorization" => oauth_helper.header}) # Signs the request hydra.queue(req) hydra.run @response = req.response
