Authenticate with Tumblr (OAuth 1.0a) — rtumblr

Performs the interactive three-legged OAuth 1.0a flow: it opens a browser so you can authorize the app, then exchanges the verifier for a durable access token. The access token is cached on disk (under tools::R_user_dir()) so the browser only opens once; subsequent sessions reuse the cached token.

Usage

rtumblr_auth(app_credentials = NULL, cache = TRUE, force = FALSE)

Arguments

app_credentials: a named list with consumer_key and consumer_secret. If NULL, loaded from the RTUMBLR_TOKEN environment variable.
cache: logical, whether to read/write the access token from the on-disk cache.
force: logical, if TRUE re-run the flow even if a cached token exists.

Value

invisibly, a list with oauth_token and oauth_token_secret.

Details

You normally do not need to call this directly: any function that hits an OAuth-protected endpoint will trigger it automatically when no cached token is found. As before, you only need to provide your app's consumer key and secret via the RTUMBLR_TOKEN environment variable ("consumer_key;consumer_secret").

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
rtumblr_auth()
} # }
