Contributing new API calls

Adding new API calls to the middleware is very straight-forward, simply add a new function which accepts JSON in, and returns JSON, then connect it to the backend.

Example: 4d3b590f46

Adding new Classes for API calls

Adding a new API class requires tweaking a few more files than a new API call only.
