Use Piwik's REST API instead of Mysql

[ockham]

Is it possible to have an option to use Piwik's REST API for data importinstead of directly modifying the underlying Mysql database?

My web hoster doesn't allow me to access my Mysql database directly from my computer, so I cannot currently use this otherwise great tool to migrate my Google Analytics data to Piwik. FWIW, the error is:

Checking MySQL Access
Initialize database connection: There was problem connecting to your MySQL Service:
Exception:  (1045, "Access denied for user 'myuser@'myip.myprovid.er' (using password: YES)")
[FAILED]

Yes, enter the Tracking API: http://piwik.org/docs/tracking-api/reference/

I have Piwik on a webhost where MySQLdb seems to be broken. So could I use Google2Piwik from my home PC if I get it to access Piwik via the API? If so, where could I configure Google2Piwik to do that? Thanks for any help.

@nhoening Unfortunately, this is currently only a feature request of mine, so it hasn't been implemented yet.
