I've done a bit of work in that area, using both Ruby on Rails and
Ruby by its self. I've used the Rails framework to develop Bacuview,
a Bacula status monitor which provides a web-based view into the
status of a Bacula backup system, with pages provided to display the
status of the jobs, the clients, the media, and the pools in the
system. For details, see:

John,
I am about to download and try out both BacuView based on Rails and
BacuWatch. What a great idea (perfect for platforms that don't support GTK
and therefore which don't allow for the GUI-based monitoring and control
tools that Kern already put together for Bacula).
Thanks for sharing this with the Bacula community!
Cheers!
Using ruby on its own, I've developed Bacuwatch, a program used to
keep a watch on a group of Bacula jobs. Typically, it is run from a
cron job, and is configured to send an email message with a single
line status report on each backup job to the Bacula administrator and
optionally to send a more detailed report on each job to the user of
the machine which that job backs up.
