Getting Started

# Authorization (Web)
w = Redd.it(:web, "CLIENT_ID", "SECRET", "REDIRECT_URI", user_agent: "TestSite v1.0.0")
url = w.auth_url("random_state", ["identity", "read"], :temporary)
puts "Please go to #{url} and enter the code below:"
code = gets.chomp
w.authorize!(code)

# Authorization
r = Redd.it(:script, "CLIENT_ID", "SECRET", "Unidan", "hunter2", user_agent: "TestBot v1.0.0")
r.authorize!

# See documentation for more grants.
# Access
require "secure_random"
require "sinatra"

  state = SecureRandom.urlsafe_base64
  session[:state] = state
  redirect w.auth_url(state, %w(identity), :permanent)

  access = w.authorize!(params[:code])

  redirect to("/name")
end

      "Your username is #{client.me.name}"
    end
