Net::T...Legacy(3pm)

💖 NAME 💖

ok so Net::Twitter::Role::Legacy — it's a Net::Twitter legacy compatibility layer, but make it a Moose role 🎀 no cap, that's literally the whole name.

---

✨ VERSION ✨

we're on version 4.01043 bestie, write it down 📝

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the vibe, copy-paste it and you're golden:

use Net::Twitter;

my $nt = Net::Twitter->new(
    username => $username,
    password => $password,
    traits   => [qw/Legacy/],
);

my $followers = $nt->followers;
if ( !followers ) {
    warn $nt->http_message;
}

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so this module is giving compatibility layer for Net::Twitter — like, it's the friend that still knows all the old inside jokes. It pulls in the extra traits: API::REST, API::Search, API::Identica, and WrapError. that's it, that's the magic ✨

💅 METHODS 💅

• new — this one takes all the same parameters as new in Net::Twitter (iykyk), but it ALSO supports these extra options, obsessed:
  • arrayref_on_error — when you set it to 1, instead of being all "here's undef" on an error, the API methods hand you back an empty ARRAY ref 🫶. Defaults to 0.
  • twittervision — when you set it to 1, it enables the upade_twittervision call 👀. Defaults to 0.
• clone — makes a shallow copy of the Net::Twitter object. back in the day, in legacy versions of Net::Twitter, this was the moment — it handled concurrent requests (like, say, with LWP::UserAgent::POE). since errors get wrapped in Net::Twitter, every concurrent request needed its own lil object, and clone served that purpose 🎀

but fr fr, the recommended approach for concurrent requests now is to use Net::Twitter's ability to throw exceptions. glow-up behavior, we love to see it 💖
