Basic Lua bindings were already added in 2024:

...and now Neil is working on what I believe to be more extensive support:
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/202950

Neil will continue to improve the scripting/API/SDK features from now on:

Additionally of interest to you as you talk about data sources and databases:
our new database developer will start working tomorrow.

Maybe you should look into experimenting with the new Lua support when it is
committed, what do you think?
