@section intro Introduction
|
||||
|
||||
Libburn is an open-source library for reading, mastering and writing
|
||||
optical discs. For now this means only CD-R and CD-RW.
|
||||
|
||||
The project comprises of several more or less interdependent parts which
|
||||
together strive to be a usable foundation for application development.
|
||||
These are libraries, language bindings, and middleware binaries which emulate
|
||||
classical (and valuable) Linux tools.
|
||||
|
||||
Our scope is currently Linux 2.4 and 2.6 and we will have a hard time to widen
|
||||
this for now, because of our history. The project could need advise from or
|
||||
membership of skilled kernel people and people who know how to talk CD/DVD
|
||||
drives into doing things.
|
||||
|
||||
We do have a workable code base for burning data CDs, though. The burn API is
|
||||
quite comprehensively documented and can be used to build a presentable
|
||||
application.
|
||||
We do have a functional binary which emulates parts of cdrecord in order to
|
||||
prove that usability, and in order to allow you to explore libburn's scope
|
||||
by help of existing cdrecord frontends.
|
||||
|
||||
@subsection components The project components (list subject to growth, hopefully):
|
||||
|
||||
- libburn is the library by which preformatted data get onto optical media.
|
||||
It uses either /dev/sgN (e.g. on kernel 2.4 with ide-scsi) or
|
||||
/dev/hdX (e.g. on kernel 2.6).
|
||||
libburn is the foundation of our cdrecord emulation.
|
||||
|
||||
- libisofs is the library to pack up hard disk files and directories into a
|
||||
ISO 9660 disk image. This may then be brought to CD via libburn.
|
||||
libisofs is to be the foundation of our upcoming mkisofs emulation.
|
||||
|
||||
- cdrskin is a limited cdrecord compatibility wrapper for libburn.
|
||||
cdrecord is a powerful GPL'ed burn program included in Joerg
|
||||
Schilling's cdrtools. cdrskin strives to be a second source for
|
||||
the services traditionally provided by cdrecord.
|
||||
cdrskin does not contain any bytes copied from cdrecord's sources.
|
||||
Many bytes have been copied from the message output of cdrecord
|
||||
runs, though.
|
||||
See cdrskin/README for more.
|
||||
|
||||
- "test" is a collection of application gestures and examples given by the
|
||||
authors of the library features. The main API example of libburn
|
||||
is named test/libburner.c .
|
||||
Explore these examples if you look for inspiration.
|
||||
|
||||
We plan to be a responsive upstream. Bear with us.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
@section using Using the libraries
|
||||
|
||||
Our build system is based on autotools.
|
||||
User experience tells us that you will need at least autotools version 1.7.
|
||||
|
||||
To build libburn and its subprojects it should be sufficient to go into
|
||||
its toplevel directory and execute
|
||||
|
||||
<dl>
|
||||
<dd>./bootstrap (needed if you downloaded from SVN)
|
||||
<dd>./configure
|
||||
<dd>make
|
||||
</dl>
|
||||
|
||||
To make the libraries accessible for running resp. developing applications
|
||||
|
||||
<dl>
|
||||
<dd>make install
|
||||
</dl>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Both libraries are written in C language and get built by autotools.
|
||||
Thus we expect them to be useable by a wide range of Linux-implemented
|
||||
languages and development tools.
|
||||
|
||||
We are still practicing.
|
||||
|
||||
@subsection working Working with the library
|
||||
|
||||
In general, using the library to perform a process consists of the following
|
||||
steps:
|
||||
|
||||
<dl>
|
||||
<dd>1. Initialize the library.
|
||||
<dd>2. Depends on wether you know the persisten drive address in advance
|
||||
<dl>
|
||||
<dd>If yes:
|
||||
<dd>2a. Aquire this drive alone and directly by function
|
||||
burn_drive_scan_and_grab() and be done until step 5
|
||||
<dd>If no address known yet:
|
||||
<dd>2b. Scan for available Drives..
|
||||
</dl>
|
||||
<dd>3b. Choose a Drive for reading/writing and inquire its persistent address.
|
||||
<dd>4b. Shut down library, re-initialize it and like in step 2a aquire the
|
||||
chosen drive by function burn_drive_scan_and_grab()
|
||||
<dd>5. Fill in the options for the operation.
|
||||
<dd>6. Wait for the operation to complete, displaying status along the way
|
||||
if desired.
|
||||
<dd>7. Release the Drive.
|
||||
<dd>8. Destroy the library instance. (If you're done working with the library.)
|
||||
</dl>
|
||||
|
||||
@section libburner Libburner
|
||||
|
||||
libburner is a minimal demo application for the library libburn (see: libburn.h)
|
||||
as provided on http://libburn.pykix.org . It can list the available devices, can
|
||||
blank a CD-RW and can burn to CD-R or CD-RW.<br>
|
||||
It's main purpose, nevertheless, is to show you how to use libburn and also
|
||||
to serve the libburn team as reference application. libburner.c does indeed
|
||||
define the standard way how above three gestures can be implemented and
|
||||
stay upward compatible for a good while.
|
||||
|
||||
@subsection libburner-help Libburner --help
|
||||
<dl>
|
||||
<dd>Usage: test/libburner
|
||||
<dl>
|
||||
<dd> [--drive <address>|<driveno>|"-"]
|
||||
<dd> [--verbose <level>] [--blank_fast|--blank_full]
|
||||
<dd> [--burn_for_real|--try_to_simulate] [--stdin_size <bytes>]
|
||||
<dd> [<imagefile>|"-"]
|
||||
</dl>
|
||||
<dd>Examples
|
||||
<dl>
|
||||
<dd> A bus scan (needs rw-permissions to see a drive): test/libburner --drive -
|
||||
<dd> Burn a file to drive chosen by number:
|
||||
<dl><dd> test/libburner --drive 0 --burn_for_real my_image_file</dl>
|
||||
<dd> Burn a file to drive chosen by persistent address:
|
||||
<dl><dd> test/libburner --drive /dev/hdc --burn_for_real my_image_file</dl>
|
||||
<dd> Blank a used CD-RW (is combinable with burning in one run):
|
||||
<dl><dd> test/libburner --drive 0 --blank_fast</dl>
|
||||
<dd> Burn a compressed afio archive on-the-fly, pad up to 700 MB:
|
||||
<dl><dd> ( cd my_directory ; find . -print | afio -oZ - ) | \
|
||||
<dd> test/libburner --drive /dev/hdc --burn_for_real --stdin_size 734003200 - </dl>
|
||||
<dd>To be read from *not mounted* CD via: afio -tvZ /dev/hdc
|
||||
<dd> Program tar would need a clean EOF which our padded CD cannot deliver.
|
||||
