No OAuth Support

[pyro2927]

OAuth is best. More secure.

I actually have been making something extremely similar for my OS X menubar inbox notifier. I'll see if I can fork RedditKit tonight and drop in my OAuth code.

@samsymons: does this flow with the existing code style? Don't want to get far down the path and then have to refactor it all

@pyro2927 Yep, this is looking great so far – nice work.

[pyro2927]

I worked a little bit more on it this morning and broke it out into it's own subclass, trying to keep things as clean as possible. It was also somewhat necessary since OAuth calls use a different base URL.

I've got it mostly working, though there are some projects with getting 401s when logging in. Hopefully I can fix those soon!

[pyro2927]

Logging in working. Up next: automatically refreshing access tokens (as they expire after 1hr).

@pyro2927 Thanks for this by the way – it's a huge help.

@samsymons Is there any ETA on OAuth support? I'm planning to add Reddit into an app soon and saw that current licensing only allows for OAuth http://www.reddit.com/wiki/licensing. Do you need help with anything to finish it?

Any ETA for this? would need this in my application... Thanks!

[zakkhoyt]

Also would like.

@pyro2927 OAuth support is required by March of 2016. Is there anything the community can do to help move to forward faster? I would even help myself.

[pyro2927]

@nicklanasa, I haven't touched this in a while. I know @samsymons had it going on this branch.

[nicklanasa]

@samsymons What's the status of the branch? Anything I can help with? My app is using this wrapper now and would be nice to have it in before it breaks login for me. @pyro2927 Thanks for the update.

@pyro2927 how far behind is your OAuth branch is it feasible for me to try and merge it into my own fork?
