 The following steps show how to use the consumer key to get an access token.
 
-  1. Fetch `request_token` from Pocket.
-  ```elixir
-  {:ok, body} = Pocketeer.Auth.get_request_token(consumer_key, "http://yoursite.com")
-  #=> {:ok, %{"code" => "abcd", "state" => nil}}
-  request_token = body["code"]
-  #=> "abcd"
-  ```
-
-  2. With this token, redirect the user to the authorization page of your application.
-  ```elixir
-  # a helper function can be used to construct the url.
-  Pocketeer.Auth.authorize_url("abcd", "http://yoursite.com")
-  #=> "https://getpocket.com/v3/oauth/authorize?request_token=abcd&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Fyoursite.com"

-  3. Get an `access_token` after the user accepts the authorization.
-  ```elixir
-  {:ok, body} = Pocketeer.Auth.get_access_token(consumer_key, request_token)
-  #=> {:ok, %{"access_token" => "efgh", "username" => "pocketuser"}}
-  access_token = body["access_token"]
