The Piwik analytics platform aims to be a fully customisable analytics platform that . Our Developer Guides explain how to build plugins and modify any part of Piwik (eg. all events one can hook into).

In this issue we focus on making more of the platform possible to customise.

Goal is to modify all internal calls *::getInstance()-> where the instance is an API, and change them to Request::processRequest. Example: API::getInstance()->getMetadata(...) becomes: Request::processRequest('API.getMetadata', array(...));

When passing through Request::processRequest, the API call becomes pluggable by any plugin which can modify the request parameters and / or the returned values / output.
