[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/brendanashworth/diskdrive.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/brendanashworth/diskdrive)

[![DiskDrive NPM](https://nodei.co/npm/diskdrive.png)](http://npmjs.org/package/diskdrive)

> DiskDrive is a cross compatible binding for DVD and CD drives. It currently supports OSX and Linux.

## Install

```bash

$ npm install diskdrive --save

```

## CLI

```bash

$ npm install diskdrive -g

```

```bash

$ diskdrive [mount/id]

```

Mount / id is the same as the documentation's mount / id.

## Documentation

#### Eject: `function([id/mount], [callback(err)]);`

First argument can be of type `string` or `int`. It specifies the mount / ID of the disk drive to eject.

Second argument is of type `Function`, which takes an `err`. If an error occurs ejecting the disk, it will be called with a respective `Error`. It is always called upon completion (the error will be `null`).

Example usage:

```javascript

var diskdrive = require('diskdrive');

// Eject the primary disk drive.

// Note lack of callback (optional)

diskdrive.eject();

// [Mac] Eject disk of [id].

diskdrive.eject(2, function(error) {

	if (error) console.log(error);

});

// [Linux] Eject disk drive, with specified mount.

diskdrive.eject('/dev/dvd', function(error) {

	if (error) console.log(error);

});

diskdrive.eject('dvd'); // appended to /dev/, would result in same system file. (/dev/dvd)

```
