hyves_oauth may be used to connect Ruby to the Dutch social networking website Hyves using the OAuth authentication protocol.

Sample usage:

#####

client = HyvesOAuth::Client.new({
  :consumer_key => 'MY_CONSUMER_KEY',
  :consumer_secret => 'MY_CONSUMER_SECRET',
  :token => 'ACCESS_TOKEN',
  :secret => 'ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET'
})
response = client.update('Developing hyves_oauth gem', {'where' => 'Home', 'visibility' => 'public'})

#####

The documentation for the Hyves Data-API may be found at www.hyves-developers.nl/documentation/data-api/home

hyves_oauth currently supports 2 of those API calls:

  • users.getLoggedin

  • wwws.create

To register an application and apply for Hyves consumer keys, go to www.hyves.nl/developer/

To experiment with the API, and fetch your own access token, hit the ‘Console’ link after you’ve registered your application.
