These objects represent the complete set of data needed for OAuth access:
an app, an endpoint, cached credentials and parameters. They should be
created through their constructor functions <code><a href="/link/oauth1.0_token?package=httr&version=0.3" rd-options="" data-mini-rdoc="httr::oauth1.0_token">oauth1.0_token</a></code>
and <code><a href="/link/oauth2.0_token?package=httr&version=0.3" rd-options="" data-mini-rdoc="httr::oauth2.0_token">oauth2.0_token</a></code>. If you create your own subclass
(as in the linkedin demo), use <code><a href="/link/new_token?package=httr&version=0.3" rd-options="" data-mini-rdoc="httr::new_token">new_token</a></code> to initialise.

Provides useful tools for working with HTTP connections.  Is a
    simplified wrapper built on top of RCurl.  It is much much less configurable
    but because it only attempts to encompass the most common operations it is
    also much much simpler.

Token-class function

<ul><li><code>cache()</code>: caches token to disk</li><li><code>sign(method, url)</code>: returns list of url and config</li><li><code>refresh()</code>: refresh access token (if possible)</li><li><code>validate()</code>: TRUE if the token is still valid, FALSE otherwise</li></ul>

Methods

OAuth tokens are cached on disk in a file called <code>.httr-oauth</code>
saved in the current working directory. Caching is enabled if:<ul><li>The session is interactive, and the user agrees to it, OR</li><li>The<code>.httr-oauth</code>file is already present, OR</li><li><code>getOption("httr_oauth_cache")</code>is<code>TRUE</code></li></ul>You can suppress caching by setting the <code>httr_oauth_cache</code> option to
<code>FALSE</code>.Tokens are cached based on their endpoint and parameters.The cache file should not be included in source code control or R packages
(because it contains private information), so httr will automatically add
the appropriate entries to `.gitignore` and `.Rbuildignore` if needed.
