Method GET and params

[oscherler]

Is it normal that, as opposed to POST, the GET method doesn’t take parameters in the params hash?

client.connect( :get, '/hello.json', { 'foo' => 'bar' } ).json
# => {"message"=>"Hello, world!", "code"=>200, "result"=>{"__route__"=>"/hello.json"}} 

client.connect( :get, '/hello.json?foo=bar' ).json
# => {"message"=>"Hello, world!", "code"=>200, "result"=>{"__route__"=>"/hello.json", "foo"=>"bar"}}

Fyi this is coded in OAuth::Consumer#create_http_request:

# create the http request object for a given http_method and path
def create_http_request(http_method, path, *arguments)
  http_method = http_method.to_sym

  if [:post, :put].include?(http_method)
    data = arguments.shift
  end
  ...
end
