Taxonomy API and REST interface 5.x-1.x-de

Provides a clean set of API calls for working with taxonomy. Most of the core code has been taken from the taxonomy module, and turned into some smaller, more modular functions for use by other modules. Taxonomy REST provides some simple url based tools for adding and removing terms from nodes.Taxonomy APITaxonomy module does not really open up much of it's functionality to other modules. This means that, if your module needs to add or remove tags programmatically, then you have to end up duplicating a lot of the core taxonomy code. This module is an attempt to take a step to a clean interface to taxonomy functions. No actual end user functionality is added through this module.Taxonomy RESTREST interfaces use URLs to interact with data. This module creates a set of URLs that will allow users with update privileges on a node to add and remove taxonomy terms using links rather than forms.eg:Add term 987 to node 123 :http://example.com/services/taxonomy/node/set/123/987Remove term 987 from node 123 :http://example.com/services/taxonomy/node/delete/123/987Security ConsiderationsSince we are using GET urls to make updates to the host site, we need to be aware of security. The REST module requires that a form token be provided with each url (theme function provided for link generation). This token is bound to a specific node so there is no way that any link could be modified maliciously.The REST interface checks to make sure that requests come from the originating server, however some browsers are not going to set this, so, there may, in theory, be some compatability issues.Users must also have update rights on nodes to manage terms.
