Method: OAuth::Consumer#request

Defined in:
lib/oauth/consumer.rb

#request(http_method, path, token = nil, request_options = {}, *arguments) ⇒ Object

Creates, signs and performs an http request. It’s recommended to use the OAuth::Token classes to set this up correctly. request_options take precedence over consumer-wide options when signing

a request.

arguments are POST and PUT bodies (a Hash, string-encoded parameters, or

absent), followed by additional HTTP headers.

@consumer.request(:get,  '/people', @token, { :scheme => :query_string })
@consumer.request(:post, '/people', @token, {}, @person.to_xml, { 'Content-Type' => 'application/xml' })
