HTTP headers for Rate Limits #48

@ghnp5

Description

@ghnp5

Hey!

When making requests to the Twitter API, they return headers as described here:

https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api/rate-limits

Note that the HTTP headers are contextual. When using application-only authentication, they indicate the rate limit for the application context. When using user-based authentication, they indicate the rate limit for that user context.
x-rate-limit-limit: the rate limit ceiling for that given endpoint
x-rate-limit-remaining: the number of requests left for the 15-minute window
x-rate-limit-reset: the remaining window before the rate limit resets, in UTC epoch seconds

From what I understand, it's not possible to get these headers using BirdElephant, is that correct?

Thank you very much 😊
