No it isn't complete yet, you can see WIP so far which is basically just refactoring the existing code to allow different authentication schemes. If you already have the oAuth token, all that is required to use it is extend the method that generates the request headers:

I haven't had time to work on this recently, however PRs are appreciated :)
