Can't we just stop writing clients for specific REST API:s period and rather just build one good API client that can easily be extended and adapted to any API? That's the path I've been using in all projects lately - because frankly - I don't want to deal with a bunch of different API clients for Twitter, Facebook, Soundcloud, Instagram or whatever sites it is that I integrate with - all those different syntaxes and all that duplicated code etc doesn't help me - I want all of their individual differences hidden away for me and colleagues behind a single well known syntax which I myself can extend to expose the resources and methods that I need - like if I need it a method for posting a photo for the API:s that support that and so on. My advice today would be: Pick a good HTTP client, preferably with good OAuth support, and then build your own extendable API-client on top of that and integrate all the different API-resources you need with that client whenever you need them.
