Need help getting Track data

[eureka-cpu]

I'm attempting to get the following:

• Track Name

• Track Items (list of items)

• Item Active Take (or just the Item name)

• Item Takes (list of takes)

• Take Name

• Take Source (The file path to the take source)

I see there's a lot of get_set_* functions, for instance get_set_media_track_info_get_name would get me the first thing on my list of things to get, but I don't see one specifically for getting the items on that track, and I'm also a bit confused as to how to use this function, All I have is an iterator over the MediaTracks for the project.

This question is more related to the REAPER API itself than to reaper-rs, so I point you to the original docs: https://www.reaper.fm/sdk/reascript/reascripthelp.html and https://github.com/justinfrankel/reaper-sdk/blob/main/sdk/reaper_plugin_functions.h

Just some hints:

• If you want info about a track, use one of the functions GetSetMediaTrackInfo (most powerful but hardest to use, reaper-rs provides a few helper methods, e.g. the one with _get_name suffix), GetMediaTrackInfo_Value (easier access for floating point values) or GetSetMediaTrackInfo_String (easier access for string values). The two latter functions can't do anything that GetSetMediaTrackInfo can't do as well. To my knowledge, they were only introduced to REAPER to simplify access from ReaScript languages (Lua, EEL, Python etc.). That's why I focused more on GetSetMediaTrackInfo in reaper-rs.
• If you want info about an item or a take, it's exactly the same, you just need to replace MediaTrack with MediaItem and MediaItem_Take.

Good luck.
