Twitter::API provides an interface to the Twitter REST API for perl.

Features:
 * full support for all Twitter REST API endpoints
 * not dependent on a new distribution for new endpoint support
 * optionally specify access tokens per API call
 * error handling via an exception object that captures the full
   request/response context
 * full support for OAuth handshake and Xauth authentication

Additional features are available via optional traits:
 * convenient methods for API endpoints with simplified argument
   handling via ApiMethods
 * normalized booleans (Twitter likes 'true' and 'false', except
   when it doesn't) via NormalizeBooleans
 * automatic decoding of HTML entities via DecodeHtmlEntities
 * automatic retry on transient errors via RetryOnError
 * "the whole enchilada" combines all the above traits via Enchilada
 * app-only (OAuth2) support via AppAuth
 * automatic rate limiting via RateLimiting
