使用oauth2发出带有“消费者令牌”的请求

Question

I'm using intridea/oauth2 for oauth2 functionality. Everything is working fine with authentication and making requests with an access token.

But what i can not find out is how to make a request without an access token. I thought it would simply work with

client = OAuth2::Client.new(key, secret, :site => site)
client.request(:post, "/api/users", {params: {param1: "val1"}})

but that does not seem to work. It is not setting any oauth header in the request.

How do i make a request like that?

Answer 1

Leave out oAuth completely then. Use simple Net::HTTP requests or use a library like REST Client for example.

Answer 2

It seems like the library isn't capable of something like that. So i now have two ways of authentication. You can find some information on this page: http://railscasts.com/episodes/352-securing-an-api?view=asciicast
