These objects represent the complete set of data needed for OAuth access:
an app, an endpoint, cached credentials and parameters. They should be
created through their constructor functions oauth1.0_token()
and oauth2.0_token().
An R6 class object.
cache(): caches token to disk
sign(method, url): returns list of url and config
refresh(): refresh access token (if possible)
validate(): TRUE if the token is still valid, FALSE otherwise
OAuth tokens are cached on disk in a file called .httr-oauth
saved in the current working directory. Caching is enabled if:
The session is interactive, and the user agrees to it, OR
The .httr-oauth file is already present, OR
getOption("httr_oauth_cache") is TRUE
You can suppress caching by setting the httr_oauth_cache option to
FALSE.
Tokens are cached based on their endpoint and parameters.
The cache file should not be included in source code control or R packages
(because it contains private information), so httr will automatically add
the appropriate entries to .gitignore and .Rbuildignore if needed.
