Support streaming responses about jsoauth HOT 11 OPEN

To clarify my use-case even more:

I would like to listen to readystate == 3, and read the partial response from xhr.responseText. This does not work in IE, so I don't expect support for this in jsOAuth. What I would like, is a way to write the plumbing for that myself, and somehow just use the OAuth signing from jsOAuth.

How about something like:

    var xhr = oauth.signedXMLHttpRequest({
        method: "GET",
        url: "http://bytespider.eu",
        data: {message: "this is cool"},
        headers: {"Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"}
    });

Clearly this method you'd have to handle some stuff yourself like how to encode any data you need to send.

Alternatively:
I can add readystatechange as an option to oauth.request() which would replace the built in one.

Yes, the first alternative sounds like a great one!

Here's a working example of what I'm trying to do: http://stackoverflow.com/a/8752044/117268 - I just need OAuth instead of Basic Auth now.

Hello guy, I have made the oauth work with streaming twitter. It is mostly working from the origin but there were some problems.

I had to remove the header callback, since keys were not well calculated.

headerParams = {
//'oauth_callback': oauth.callbackUrl,
...

As, you said I had to manage the stream away from this condition :
if (xhr.readyState === 4) {
I put some very bad stuff before, just to see that it works, such as
xhr.onreadystatechange = function () {
success(xhr);
if (xhr.readyState === 4) {

I'm sorry I don't understand. Can you be clearer? Please submit a pull request if you have code you would like to share.

+1 vote for this as well - I asked this question prior to finding this issue: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11374771/how-to-make-twitter-streaming-apis-work-with-jsoauth

jsOAuth 2.0 will support a way to craft and use your own XHR objects and callbacks.

@bytespider Thanks for the update - looking forward to 2.0!
Any word on the rough timeline to expect for this?

from jsoauth.

Sadly not. I may do a pre-release without OAuth 2.0 support just to get the code out there.

from jsoauth.

@bytespider Yeah that pre-release sounds like a great idea!
