CkOAuth1

Current Version: 10.1.3

OAuth 1.0a signature generator.

Object Creation

$obj = chilkat::CkOAuth1->new();

Properties

AuthorizationHeader

# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$oAuth1->get_AuthorizationHeader($ckStr);
$strVal = $oAuth1->authorizationHeader();

Introduced in version 9.5.0.53

The authorization header. This is what would be included in the Authorization HTTP request header if it is going to be used as the means for providing the OAuth1 authorization information.

top

BaseString

# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$oAuth1->get_BaseString($ckStr);
$strVal = $oAuth1->baseString();

Introduced in version 9.5.0.53

This is the exact string that was signed. For example, if the signature method is HMAC-SHA1, the BaseString is the exact string that passed to the HMAC-SHA1. An application does not set the BaseString property. The BaseString is exposed as a property to allow for debugging and to see the exact string that is signed.

ConsumerKey

# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$oAuth1->get_ConsumerKey($ckStr);
$strVal = $oAuth1->consumerKey();
$oAuth1->put_ConsumerKey($strVal);

Introduced in version 9.5.0.53

The consumer key.

top

ConsumerSecret

# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$oAuth1->get_ConsumerSecret($ckStr);
$strVal = $oAuth1->consumerSecret();
$oAuth1->put_ConsumerSecret($strVal);

Introduced in version 9.5.0.53

The consumer secret.

top

DebugLogFilePath

# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$oAuth1->get_DebugLogFilePath($ckStr);
$strVal = $oAuth1->debugLogFilePath();
$oAuth1->put_DebugLogFilePath($strVal);

If set to a file path, this property logs the LastErrorText of each Chilkat method or property call to the specified file. This logging helps identify the context and history of Chilkat calls leading up to any crash or hang, aiding in debugging.

Enabling the VerboseLogging property provides more detailed information. This property is mainly used for debugging rare instances where a Chilkat method call causes a hang or crash, which should generally not happen.

Possible causes of hangs include:

A timeout property set to 0, indicating an infinite timeout.
A hang occurring within an event callback in the application code.
An internal bug in the Chilkat code causing the hang.

EncodedSignature

# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$oAuth1->get_EncodedSignature($ckStr);
$strVal = $oAuth1->encodedSignature();

Introduced in version 9.5.0.53

The URL encoded representation of the Signature property

top

GeneratedUrl

# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$oAuth1->get_GeneratedUrl($ckStr);
$strVal = $oAuth1->generatedUrl();

Introduced in version 9.5.0.53

The URL that includes the OAuth1 query params.

top

HmacKey

# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$oAuth1->get_HmacKey($ckStr);
$strVal = $oAuth1->hmacKey();

Introduced in version 9.5.0.53

The exact HMAC key used to sign the BaseString. An application does not directly set the HmacKey. The HmacKey property is read-only and is provided for debugging to see the exact HMAC key used to sign the BaseString. The HMAC key is composed from the consumer secret (if it exists) and the token secret (if it exists).

top

LastErrorHtml

# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$oAuth1->get_LastErrorHtml($ckStr);
$strVal = $oAuth1->lastErrorHtml();

Provides HTML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

top

LastErrorText

# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$oAuth1->get_LastErrorText($ckStr);
$strVal = $oAuth1->lastErrorText();

Provides plain text information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

LastErrorXml

# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString

Provides XML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

top

LastMethodSuccess

# $boolVal is a boolean
$boolVal = $oAuth1->get_LastMethodSuccess();
$oAuth1->put_LastMethodSuccess($boolVal);

Indicates the success or failure of the most recent method call: 1 means success, 0 means failure. This property remains unchanged by property setters or getters. This method is present to address challenges in checking for null or Nothing returns in certain programming languages.

top

Nonce

# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$oAuth1->get_Nonce($ckStr);
$strVal = $oAuth1->nonce();

$oAuth1->put_OauthMethod($strVal);

Introduced in version 9.5.0.53

top

OauthUrl

Note: The OAuthUrl should not include query parameters. For example, do not set the OAuthUrl equal to

https://rest.sandbox.netsuite.com/app/site/hosting/restlet.nl?script=165&deploy=1

Instead, set OAuthUrl equal to

https://rest.sandbox.netsuite.com/app/site/hosting/restlet.nl

and then subsequently call AddParam for each query parameter.

top

Utf8

# $boolVal is a boolean
$boolVal = $oAuth1->get_Utf8();
$oAuth1->put_Utf8($boolVal);

When set to 1, all "const char *" arguments are interpreted as utf-8 strings. If set to 0 (the default), then "const char *" arguments are interpreted as ANSI strings. Also, when set to 1, and Chilkat method returning a "const char *" is returning the utf-8 representation. If set to 0, all "const char *" return values are ANSI strings.

top

VerboseLogging

# $boolVal is a boolean
$boolVal = $oAuth1->get_VerboseLogging();
$oAuth1->put_VerboseLogging($boolVal);

If set to 1, then the contents of LastErrorText (or LastErrorXml, or LastErrorHtml) may contain more verbose information. The default value is 0. Verbose logging should only be used for debugging. The potentially large quantity of logged information may adversely affect peformance.
