A simple interface for using the Hatena Authentication API http://auth.hatena.ne.jp/.

new({ api_key => '...', secret => '...' })

Returns an instance of Hatena::API::Auth. It requires two parameters, "api_key" and "secret" which can be retrieved from the Web site of Hatena Authentication API (http://auth.hatena.ne.jp/).

uri_to_login(%extra)

Returns a URI object which is associated with the login url and required parameters. You can also use this method in your templates of Template like this:

  <a href="[% api.uri_to_login %]">login</a>

uri_to_login takes extra URI parameters as arguments like this:

  <a href="[% api.uri_to_login(foo => 'bar', bar => 'baz') %]">login</a>

Then extracted URI will have extra URI parameters such as foo=bar&bar=baz. Those parameters will be passed to the Authentication API. They will be returned to your application as query parameters of the callback URL.

login($cert)

The user object has some accessor for user's information.
