Java:
This short example will show you how to authorize your own account against the API and make requests. Note that we aren't following a full OAuth flow here because as a developer you already have access to your own access token and secret.
This example makes use of Scribe OAuth
library for Java which requires that we define a TradeKingApi class that
extends the DefaultApi10a class provided by Scribe.
package com.tradeking;
import org.scribe.builder.api.DefaultApi10a;
import org.scribe.model.Token;
public class TradeKingApi extends DefaultApi10a
{
private static final String AUTHORIZE_URL = "https://developers.tradeking.com/oauth/authorize?oauth_token=%s";
private static final String REQUEST_TOKEN_RESOURCE = "https://developers.tradeking.com/oauth/request_token";
private static final String ACCESS_TOKEN_RESOURCE = "https://developers.tradeking.com/oauth/access_token";
@Override
public String getAccessTokenEndpoint()
{
return ACCESS_TOKEN_RESOURCE;
}
@Override
public String getRequestTokenEndpoint()
{
return REQUEST_TOKEN_RESOURCE;
}
@Override
public String getAuthorizationUrl(Token requestToken)
{
return String.format(AUTHORIZE_URL, requestToken.getToken());
}
}
We can then use the TradeKingApi class to instantiate an OAuthService
and Token to make requests against the API.
package com.tradeking;
import org.scribe.builder.*;
import org.scribe.model.*;
import org.scribe.oauth.*;
public class TradeKingClient
{
private static final String CONSUMER_KEY = "0cc175b9c0f1b6a831c399e269772661";
private static final String CONSUMER_SECRET = "ff2513194e75315625628304c9eb66e8";
private static final String OAUTH_TOKEN = "150a96573adf12b21dab621e85497e6e";
private static final String OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET = "5c7b57d450a71d378a5eda991f809e56";
private static final String PROTECTED_RESOURCE_URL = "https://api.tradeking.com/v1/member/profile.json";
public static void main(String[] args)
{
OAuthService service = new ServiceBuilder()
.provider(TradeKingApi.class)
.apiKey(CONSUMER_KEY)
.apiSecret(CONSUMER_SECRET)
.build();
Token accessToken = new Token(OAUTH_TOKEN, OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET);
// Now let's go and ask for a protected resource!
OAuthRequest request = new OAuthRequest(Verb.GET, PROTECTED_RESOURCE_URL);
service.signRequest(accessToken, request);
Response response = request.send();
System.out.println(response.getBody());
}
}
