If you want to know how to create an OAuth provider or how to register your domain and get your consumer key and secret, I highly recommend you to read this great blog post written by Ikai Lan.
Actually, you should read it anyway, because the piece of code below just replaces the python script provided by him. Since I needed a java version I decided to write my own client.
The java class below contains a basic junit test which will do the 3-legged OAuth dance. The only thing I haven't implemented is the access token cache part - every time you run this test you will have to explicitly perform the authorization steps in the browser (again).
In order to run it, you basically have to resolve 2 dependencies:
I used the 1.6.0-beta version. Just download and put them in the classpath and you are good to go!
And, of course, don't forget to change the APP_ID and CONSUMER_SECRET constants.
