#CodeIgniter Coderwall API Library

A simple requester library to return and cache results from the Coderwall API.

1. PHP 5.2 or greater
2. CodeIgniter 2.1.0+
3. An active account username for coderwall.com.

Note: for 1.7.x support download v2.2 from Downloads tab

Drag and drop libraries/coderwall.php and config/coderwall.php files into your application.

If you are requesting a single profile from Coderwall you can set the username in the configuration file. Otherwise, request it at runtime.

Either autoload the library or use CodeIgniters loader class.

$this->load->library( 'coderwall' );
$results = $this->coderwall->get( 'someuser' );

// if success returns object (FALSE if error)
var_dump( $results );

Often times, CURL adds a bit of overhead when making requests so I've added in CodeIgniters Cache Library. You can enable/disable it via config file/option. Available options are:
