Raffi Krikorian replied to my question about pass-through parameters
in the callback URL:
i don't think this is possible in oauth 1.0a. i know oauth 2.0 has a
state parameter (don't quote me on the name) that will allow clients
to pass an opaque string to the server who will then pass it back.
One of my co-workers came up with this:
looking at the twitter docu on github
<http://github.com/abraham/twitteroauth/blob/master/DOCUMENTATION>http://github.com/abraham/twitteroauth/blob/master/DOCUMENTATION
i see this:
4) You will now have a Twitter URL that you must send the user to.
You can add parameters and
they will return with the user in step 5.
<https://twitter.com/oauth/authenticate?oauth_token=xyz123>https://twitter.com/oauth/authenticate?oauth_token=xyz123
https://twitter.com/oauth/authenticate?oauth_token=xyz123&info=abc
// info will return with user
I haven't tried this yet, but it appears to be saying that the
feature I want _is_ available. How should I interpret it?
