CakePHP-TMDB-API-Plugin

A CakePhp Plugin that interacts with the API from themoviedb.org. The component will get/post data to/from the API and return an array to the controller. The helper will fetch the image from the API and save a local version for future use. Images cached from the API expire after 30 days and will be fetched again.
