OAauth1 is a Go implementation of the OAuth 1 spec.
It takes design cues from golang.org/x/oauth2, providing an http.Client which handles authorization and signing.

An Endpoint groups an OAuth provider's URLs for getting a request token, allowing users to authorize applications, and getting access tokens. Endpoints for common providers like twitter and dropbox are provided in subpackages.
A Config stores a consumer application's consumer key and secret, the callback URL, and the Endpoint to which the consumer is registered. It provides OAuth 1 authorization flow methods and a Client(token *Token) method which returns an http.Client which will transparently authorize requests.
An OAuth1 Token is an access token which allows requests to be made as a particular user. It has fields Token and TokenSecret. If you already have an access token, skip to [Authorized Requests](#Authorized Requests).
If you've used golang.org/x/oauth2 before, this organization is similar.
The OAuth 1 authorization flow to request that a user grant an application access to his/her account (via an access token) typically looks like:
- User visits Consumer's "/login" route (via "Login with Provider" button)
- Login handler calls
config.GetRequestToken() - Login handler redirects user to
config.AuthorizationURL(rt *RequestToken) - Provider calls Consumer's CallbackURL with a
verifier config.GetAccessToken(rt *RequestToken, verifier string)- Consumer application stores access token. Optionally creates some form of unforgeable session state.
For more details, see the Twitter PIN-based login example or the
go-twitter login package.
After an access Token has been obtained, authorized requests can be made on behalf of the user.

func main() {
config := oauth1.NewConfig("consumerKey", "consumerSecret")
token := oauth1.NewToken("token", "tokenSecret")
// httpClient will automatically authorize http.Request's
httpClient := config.Client(token)
// example Twitter API request
path := "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/home_timeline.json?count=2"
resp, _ := httpClient.Get(path)
defer resp.Body.Close()
body, _ := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)
fmt.Printf("Raw Response Body:\n%v\n", string(body))
