트위터 REST Open API 목록

나는 맨처음에 안드로이드 앱을 배울 때, 트위터에서 제공하는 REST Open API를 이용하여 트위터와 유사한 앱을 개발하는 것을 배웠다. 또한 현재 운영되고 있는 "한국인이 좋아하는 명시" 앱도 트위터에서 제공하는 REST API를 사용하고 있다. 벌써 6년 전의 일이지만 아직도 이 앱이 사용이 되고 있고, 오늘도 어떤 사용자가 이 REST Open API를 사용하여 앱 전체 사용자에게 자신이 창작한 시를 전송하였다.

이 글에서는 REST Open API에 대한 개념을 좀 더 보충하기 위하여 트위터에서 제공하는 REST Open API 목록을 기술하고자 한다.

이 목록들을 살펴보면 유사한 기능들이 묶여 있는 것을 알 수 있으며 서로 연관관계가 있는 것을 알 수 있다.

REST API를 사용하여 서버의 기능을 Open 하려면 어떻게 URI 체계를 가져가야 하는지를 살펴볼 수 있다.
