NAME
Twitter::API::Context - Encapsulated state for a request/response
VERSION
version 1.0006
SYNOPSIS
my ( $r, $c ) = $client->verify_credentials; say sprintf '%d verify_credentials calls remaining unitl %s', $c->rate_limit_remaining, scalar localtime $c->rate_limit_reset; # output: 74 verify_credentials_calls remaining until Sat Dec 3 22:05:41 2016
DESCRIPTION
The state for every API call is stored in a context object. It is automatically created when a request is initiated and is returned to the caller as the second value in list context. The context includes the HTTP::Request and HTTP::Response objects, a reference to the API return data, and accessor for rate limit information. A reference to the context is also included in a Twitter::API::Error exception.
METHODS
http_request Returns the HTTP::Request object for the API call. http_response Returns the HTTP::Response object for the API call. result Returns the result data for the API call. rate_limit Every API endpoint has a rate limit. This method returns the rate limit for the endpoint of the API call. See <https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/basics/rate-limiting> for details. rate_limit_remaining Returns the number of API calls remaining for the endpoint in the current rate limit window. rate_limit_reset Returns the time of the next rate limit window in UTC epoch seconds.
