Hello,

I've picked up a web design project, and I would love to use vibe.d/dlang. I need to use oauth to search on a number of web api's, such as searching for Twitter tweets.

I tried using Adam's oauth (Thanks!). However, it doesn't appear support the validation needed for searching Twitter.
https://github.com/adamdruppe/arsd/blob/master/oauth.d


Now I'm looking at std.net.curl, and this is my thought: is HTTP.addRequestHeader(key, val) able to set the oauth authentication headers? It would look a bit odd, but if something like this works, then it wouldn't be difficult to code for each set of headers specifically:
        
auto client = HTTP("https://api.twitter.com";); // not sure if https should be set here or somewhere else
    string bearerUrl = "https://api.twitter.com/oauth2/token";;
client.addRequestHeader("Authorization", "Basic eHZ6MWV2RlM0d0VFUFRHRUZQSEJvZzpMOHFxOVBaeVJnNmllS0dFS2hab2xHQzB2SldMdzhpRUo4OERSZHlPZw");
    client.postData("grant_type=client_credentials");
    client.perform();

(The above example is based on Step 2 of this page)

Of course, the oauth headers look a bit different, but I imagine it being something like this: client.addRequestHeader("Authorization", "OAuth2 token: \"string\", tokensecret: \"string\", appkey, \"string\" ...");
\\ not sure if that's how to escape quotes in dlang


Can I get some guidance on this? I would really like to use dlang, but I can't afford to be stuck on this for too long. I'd be happy to try and write a modification of Adam's code, but I lack experience, so it's a slow process for me.

I'd also be happy to write up little tutorials/blogposts about how I accomplish various tasks.

Thanks,
