ohauth

ohauth

A most-of-the-way OAuth 1.0 client implementation in Javascript. Meant to be an improvement over the default linked one because this uses idiomatic Javascript.

This includes Paul Johnston's venerable implementation of SHA1.

If you use this on a server different from the one authenticated against, you'll need to enable and use CORS for cross-origin resources. CORS is not available in IE before version IE10.

Compatibility

• OpenStreetMap full & tested with iD
• GitHub - partial, full flow is not possible because access_token API is not CORS-enabled

API

// generates an oauth-friendly timestamp
ohauth.timestamp();

// generates an oauth-friendly nonce
ohauth.nonce();

// generate a signature for an oauth request
ohauth.signature({
    oauth_consumer_key: '...',
    oauth_signature_method: '...',
    oauth_timestamp: '...',
    oauth_nonce: '...'
});

// make an oauth request.
ohauth.xhr(method, url, auth, data, options, callback);

// options can be a header like
{ header: { 'Content-Type': 'text/xml' } }

ohauth.xhr('POST', url, o, null, {}, function(xhr) {
    // xmlhttprequest object
});

// generate a querystring from an object
ohauth.qsString({ foo: 'bar' });
// foo=bar

// generate an object from a querystring
ohauth.stringQs('foo=bar');
// { foo: 'bar' }
