Overview

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
