HTTPCLIENT_REQUEST_SEND

This Event allows to modify the URL, query parameters, POST-data and HTTP-method for outgoing HTTP requests before sending the request (see sendRequest() in inc/HTTPClient.php).

The intention is to have plugins transparently add a signature or authentication tokens to a request.

• $data['url'] - the URL to request.
• $data['data'] - raw data for HTTP-POSTs
• $data['method'] - the HTTP method (“POST”, “GET”, “HEAD” or “DELETE”)

The following plugins are known to handle this event and their source code may be a good start for understanding and implementing a handler yourself.

• Oauth simple (simple: hardcoded tokens) for the OAuth API
• Oauth - work in progress

• Action Plugins
• Events
