Add response headers to ApiResponse to gather API limits information #27

Open athlan opened 10 years ago

athlan commented 10 years ago

ApiResponse has been modified, headers has been stored.

Use getRateLimit() and getRateLimitRemaining() from ApiResponse to get info about current API usage.

Can you show an example of how this can be utilizied?

athlan commented 10 years ago

Of course. Our service using this library often reaches Instagram's limits so we have to switch API keys by round-robin or read these limits. We also generates the alerts if API client will soon reach limits based on header information (not hardcoded value).

I mean in code. Can you show me how you use it?

I just implemented this without looking at the open PR's, but I did it a little differently. Having it hang off the response isn't very useful to the client. I'll pull and open a PR.
