OAuth2 with intridea ruby gem

Question

I have the following code:

token = client.auth_code.get_token(code, :redirect_uri => \'http://localhost:3000\')
response = token.get(\'https://api.foursqu         


        

Answer 1

There seems to be a problem how the oauth2 gem passes variabels inside the objects so mode and param_name seems to be lost on the way. A solution to the problem would be to create a new AccessToken object with the correct parameters instead of using the shorthand. This example is tested against Foursquares api and it works.

require "oauth2"

client = OAuth2::Client.new(
  "CLIENT_ID",
  "CLIENT_SECRET", 
  :authorize_url => "/oauth2/authorize", 
  :token_url => "/oauth2/access_token", 
  :site => "https://foursquare.com/"
)

puts client.auth_code.authorize_url(:redirect_uri => "http://localhost:4000")

code = gets.chomp

token = client.auth_code.get_token(code, :redirect_uri => "http://localhost:4000")

token = OAuth2::AccessToken.new(client, token.token, {
  :mode => :query,
  :param_name => "oauth_token",
})

response = token.get('https://api.foursquare.com/v2/users/self/checkins')

puts response.body
