Is an OAuth class outside the scope of Flourish?

posted by kris 9 years ago

With many web services and APIs switching to OAuth would a generic OAuth Flourish class be appropriate?

It's not outside the scope of Flourish, I've just have yet to need it. Until I have a need, and find that the existing libraries are somehow lacking, I probably wouldn't have the time to write one.

Have you tried any of the libraries listed on http://oauth.net/code/? Is there anything that has been troublesome, such as non-standard extension requirements?

I haven't tried any of those libraries. Up until now I've been using service specific libraries but this seemed wasteful as they all implemented the OAuth bits independently. I will try using a more generic library and see how I get on. I'm sure they will be satisfactory. Many thanks.
