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.

const std = @import("std");
const chilkat = @import("chilkat");

pub fn main(init: std.process.Init) !void {
    const alloc = init.arena.allocator();

    const rest = try chilkat.Rest.init();
    defer rest.deinit();
    const b_tls = true;
    const b_auto_reconnect = true;
    rest.connect("example.com", 443, b_tls, b_auto_reconnect) catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try rest.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    // Configure OAuth 1.0a request signing.  Provide the consumer credentials and the access token
    // credentials; Chilkat computes the OAuth signature for each request.
    const oauth1 = try chilkat.OAuth1.init();
    defer oauth1.deinit();
    // 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.setConsumerKey("CONSUMER_KEY");
    oauth1.setConsumerSecret("CONSUMER_SECRET");
    oauth1.setToken("ACCESS_TOKEN");
    oauth1.setTokenSecret("ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET");
    oauth1.setSignatureMethod("HMAC-SHA1");

    // The 2nd argument selects whether OAuth parameters are placed in the query string (true) or the
    // Authorization header (false).
    const b_use_query_params = false;
    rest.setAuthOAuth1(oauth1, b_use_query_params) catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try rest.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    const response_text = rest.fullRequestNoBody(alloc, "GET", "/api/resource") catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try rest.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{response_text});
