Implementation of the OAuth protocol

Net::OAuth provides a low-level API for reading and writing OAuth messages. OAuth is an open protocol to allow secure API authentication in a simple and standard method from desktop and web applications. In practical terms, OAuth is a mechanism for a Consumer to request protected resources from a Service Provider on behalf of a user. Net::OAuth provides: - classes that encapsulate OAuth messages (requests and responses). - message signing - message serialization and parsing. - 2-legged requests (aka. tokenless requests, aka. consumer requests), see "CONSUMER REQUESTS" Net::OAuth does not provide: - Consumer or Service Provider encapsulation - token/nonce/key storage/management
