API connect broken, insecure

[ryantate]

Won't connect to Tumblr. Tumblr end is fine, author's server returns a code to put into emacs, albeit over an unencrypted http link, which is pretty unforgivable in 2020. Anyway, once you put in the code, it still doesn't work. Even if you do the "forget" command, and try it all again, it's just an endless loop of broken with no way to debug (sparse use of Messages buffer) :-\

i suppose the API has changed. i would also love to be able to post to interact with tumblr from emacs, especially since they disabled their post by email feature.

i got tumblesocks working again by setting:
(setq oauth-nonce-function #'oauth-internal-make-nonce)

as per https://danzorx.tumblr.com/post/36832512247/a-weird-oauth-el-issue-when-trying-to-set-up, mentioned in another issue.

Tumblesocks doesn't work for me. On WSL with GNU Emacs 28.2 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.35, cairo version 1.16.0) of 2022-12-20, modified by Debian tumblesocks-api-test-auth generates a nil token. The URL is: https://www.tumblr.com/oauth/authorize?oauth_token=nil.

elpa gives me the following dependencies: oauth-20130128.151, htmlize-20210825.2150, markdown-mode-20221105.236.

I read https://billisalive.tumblr.com/ and https://danzorx.tumblr.com/post/36832512247/a-weird-oauth-el-issue-when-trying-to-set-up but couldn't get tumblesocks to work.

On my debian box I'm able to copy the code from the tumblr webpage, but then I get the "Looks likeomething broke." error message. I get an error in oauth.el: hmac-sha1: key QuH.....th1SK must be unibyte.

I am able to login onto tumblr with tumblesocks but I have to replace
oauth-build-signature-hmac-sha1 with

(defun oauth-build-signature-hmac-sha1 (req secret)
  "Returns the signature for the given request object"
  (let* ((token (oauth-request-token req))
         (key (concat secret "&" (when token (oauth-t-token-secret token))))
         (hmac-params
          (list (string-to-unibyte (encode-coding-string key 'utf-8 t))
                (string-to-unibyte (encode-coding-string
                 (oauth-build-signature-basestring-hmac-sha1 req) 'utf-8 t)))))
    (if oauth-hmac-sha1-param-reverse (setq hmac-params (reverse hmac-params)))
    (base64-encode-string (apply 'hmac-sha1 hmac-params))))

I receive a Hello, gargle! Tumblesocks is working properly.

I also had to change

(flet ((shr-ensure-paragraph () 0))

in tumblesocks-view-insert-parsed-html-fragment with

(cl-flet ((shr-ensure-paragraph () 0))

I have a dashboard now.

I haven't throughly tested tumblesocks. Perhaps there are more errors.

Using the package from elpa downloaded today, everything worked except that error on shr-ensure-paragraph for which the above insertion of 'cl-' did the trick!
