I am searching for a way to (semi) automatically back up small but important data, and using M-Disk Blu-Rays with parity seems to be a good way to do this. As im writing my own backup management, and want my backup to be done with as little human input as possible (the more and the longer a human is needed the higher the chance of the backup not beeing done) I would like to use dvdisaster automatically - as in my backup software creates an archive, uses dvdisaster to create an augmented iso, and only pings me to insert an empty disk and remove a burned disk without me having to even use a keyboard.
I have seen multiple references to a "CLI mode", and while that would probably work i much prefer to work with libraries than cli interfaces. Converting parameters into CLI arguments is annoying, and parsing CLI output is even worse, especially if there is no machine readable output option (is there one?).
My question therefore is: Can you use dvdisaster as a static/dynamic c library?
If yes: Is there any docs?
If no: would a PR enabling such use be welcomed?
