librouteros (or libRouterOS) is a C library to communicate with network devices by MikroTik running their Linux-based operating system RouterOS. It currently is a very low-level library in that is only abstracts the records based network protocol, not the commands, arguments and filters provided via this interface.

While it’s hopefully easy to port the library to other operating systems, it has currently only be tested on Linux. Success stories and patches are very welcome.
