Adding possibility to fetch multiple objects at once

• Authentication is now done with headers instead of url parameters. Thanks to @AScheuss and @cyrillbolliger for the pull request. #2

Bugfix Release

Always delete cache when definitions change

Added caching layer

The FileCache lets you cache API requests. It does check which objects have changed and only fetches the changed objects.

This is how you can use the FileCache layer:

// create a cache object
$client = new Webling\API\Client('https://demo.webling.ch','MY_APIKEY')
$cache = new FileCache($client, [
    'directory' => './webling_cache'
]);

// get object
$cache->getObject('member', 506);

// get root objects
$cache->getObject('membergroup');

// check for updates and renew cache
$cache->updateCache();

// clear the whole cache
$cache->clearCache();

Enable SSL certificate checking

The library now checks SSL certificates. This could lead to some problems on local Windows PHP installations.

If your SSL Certificate check fails, you have the following options:

• update your PHP Certificate File, see http://kb.ucla.edu/articles/how-do-i-use-curl-in-php-on-windows (Recommended)
• use the http protocol (specify the domain like: "http://YOURDOMAIN.webling.ch")

Initial Release

This is the inital release version of the library.
