Venmo / Oauth Missing argument: client_id., code: 241 - ruby-on-rails

Question

I'm using oauth to try and login through venmo based on this guide. This isn't official and venmo docs don't even show code example with ruby.
At first, I couldn't even see the venmo login. I removed the ENV and brackets around the id and secret in the initializer and then I could see the login. When I submit and it hits the call back I get this error: (and I think it retries endlessly...I have to manually shut down server)
{"error": {"message": "Missing argument: client_id.", "code": 241}}
I, [2014-04-16T11:49:48.124423 #47700] INFO -- omniauth: (venmo) Callback phase initiated.
E, [2014-04-16T11:49:48.345202 #47700] ERROR -- omniauth: (venmo) Authentication failure! invalid_credentials: OAuth2::Error, {"message"=>"Missing argument: client_id.", "code"=>241}:
Here is my route:
get 'users/auth/venmo/callback' => 'omniauth_callbacks_controller#create'
Gems:
gem 'devise'
gem 'omniauth'
gem 'omniauth-venmo'
I have this in my initializers/omniauth.rb
Rails.application.config.middleware.use OmniAuth::Builder do
provider :venmo, 'id', 'secret', :scope => 'access_feed,access_profile,access_friends,make_payments'
end
This is my callback controller
class OmniauthCallbacksController < Devise::OmniauthCallbacksController
def venmo
#user = User.find_for_oauth(env["omniauth.auth"], current_user)
raise
if #user.persisted?
sign_in_and_redirect root_path, :event => :authentication
set_flash_message(:notice, :success, :kind => "Venmo") if is_navigational_format?
else
session["devise.venmo_uid"] = env["omniauth.auth"]
redirect_to new_user_registration_url
end
end
protected
def auth_hash
request.env['omniauth.auth']
end
end
and I have initializers/devise.rb
require 'omniauth-venmo'
config.omniauth :venmo, "KEY", "SECRET"
-- with the values filled in of course. I would appreciate the help...
Thank you!!
UPDATE: I've pushed this to a github repository and one of my peers pulled it. He did not get the same error. What would the reason for this be..?

#Peege151... I created a working solution with devise integration as said by you..here is my code below, use it for reference purpose. I don't say this is the exact solution for the raised question but this may help since i got it working
Gems:
gem 'rails 3.2.14' # Important~
gem 'devise'
gem 'omniauth'
gem 'omniauth-venmo'
I have not created omniauth.rb in initializers .... instead i added configuration in devise.rb as u wanted it with devise
my devise.rb :
require "omniauth-venmo"
config.omniauth :venmo, '--Your APP KEY -- ', '-- App Secret--',{:client_options => {:ssl => {:verify => false}}}
above line i have set SSL verification to false,, if u want enable SSL with (:verify => true).
This is my callback controller code:
class Users::OmniauthCallbacksController < Devise::OmniauthCallbacksController
def venmo
#user = User.find_for_oauth(request.env["omniauth.auth"], current_user)
if #user.persisted?
sign_in_and_redirect #user, :event => :authentication
set_flash_message(:notice, :success, :kind => "Venmo") if is_navigational_format?
else
session["devise.twitter_uid"] = request.env["omniauth.auth"]
redirect_to new_user_registration_url
end
end
end
User.rb code:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
TEMP_EMAIL = 'change#me.com'
TEMP_EMAIL_REGEX = /change#me.com/
devise :database_authenticatable, :registerable,
:recoverable, :rememberable, :trackable, :validatable
# Setup accessible (or protected) attributes for your model
attr_accessible :email, :password, :password_confirmation, :remember_me, :name, :provider , :uid
devise :omniauthable
def self.find_for_oauth(auth, signed_in_resource=nil)
user = User.where(:provider => auth.provider, :uid => auth.uid).first
if user
return user
else
registered_user = User.where(:email => auth.info.email).first
if registered_user
return registered_user
else
user = User.create(name:auth.extra.raw_info.name,
provider:auth.provider,
uid:auth.uid,
email:auth.info.email.blank? ? TEMP_EMAIL : auth.info.email,
password:Devise.friendly_token[0,20],
)
end
end
user
end
end
Here is my for devise and callback routes.rb:
devise_for :users, :controllers => { :omniauth_callbacks => "users/omniauth_callbacks" }
get '/auth/venmo/callback' => 'users/omniauth_callbacks#venmo'
login page link:
<%= link_to "Sign in with Venmo", user_omniauth_authorize_path(:venmo) %>

I'm not sure the exact issue here, but one thing to be cognizant of is it looks you're hitting a naked URL instead of api.venmo.com/v1/, which is our latest version. Try that first, Then we can work from there.
