Hi,

I'm looking for a way of extract details of backuppc jobs so that I can parse 
them and produce some graphs of usage and general activity.

The second part I am happy doing, however getting hold of the data is being a 
bit more of a challenge.

I've tried my hand at some PHP DOM scrapping to pull the data from the web 
interface, however this gets quite messy, and means learning a intermediate 
step to achieve my goal. What I'm really looking for is a way of getting this 
kind of information straight from the command line.

I haven't yet found a way of doing this though, so I'm asking for ideas. The 
other option I thought of was to pull the data from the backuppc data files 
directly, however I don't have a clue where to start with that idea!

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Coops.
