Hello and Help: Getting SQL data out of Cacti Db

[ybotspawn]

Alright, so first of all hello and apologies in advance. I'm sure the information to do this exists SOMEWHERE, I just can't seem to find where. I need to be able to grab the graph data, for traffic usage, from my cacti's DB. Reverse engineering the db is getting to be a bit tedious and I can't seem to find a decent tutorial that document how to do, or even if I'm going about this the right way. (If there is a better way to parse the cacti data, programmatically [python, .net, java, etc], I would appreciate it) Any help anyone can give me would be great.

Thanks

You may use any programming language as long as your script spits out numbers. FInd some MySQL templates showing how to do so in the scripts and templates forum
