Configure OAuth 1.0a Authentication for REST

See more REST Examples

Demonstrates Rest.SetAuthOAuth1, which associates an OAuth1 provider so Chilkat computes the OAuth 1.0/1.0a signature for each request. The second argument selects whether OAuth parameters are placed in the query string or the Authorization header.

let rest = chilkat::Rest::new();
let b_tls = true;
let b_auto_reconnect = true;
if rest.connect("example.com", 443, b_tls, b_auto_reconnect).is_err() {
    println!("{}", rest.last_error_text());
    return;
}

// Configure OAuth 1.0a request signing.  Provide the consumer credentials and the access token
// credentials; Chilkat computes the OAuth signature for each request.
let oauth1 = chilkat::OAuth1::new();
// Normally you would not hard-code secrets in source.  You should instead obtain them from an
// interactive prompt, environment variable, or a secrets vault.
oauth1.set_consumer_key("CONSUMER_KEY");
oauth1.set_consumer_secret("CONSUMER_SECRET");
oauth1.set_token("ACCESS_TOKEN");
oauth1.set_token_secret("ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET");
oauth1.set_signature_method("HMAC-SHA1");

// The 2nd argument selects whether OAuth parameters are placed in the query string (true) or the
// Authorization header (false).
let b_use_query_params = false;
if rest.set_auth_o_auth1(&oauth1, b_use_query_params).is_err() {
    println!("{}", rest.last_error_text());
    return;
}

let Ok(response_text) = rest.full_request_no_body("GET", "/api/resource") else {
    println!("{}", rest.last_error_text());
    return;
};

println!("{}", response_text);
