Googling didn't give me great results. Is there any sort of API for Wireshark that abstracts away from the main source code so we can develop programs that interact with it and deal with the data it provides?
edit: I appreciate the suggestions for different ways to receive packets, but I want to implement packet injection into Wireshark. Sniffing will be an important part of my project, however I'm not sure that the suggested solution allows for packet injection.
tshark provides a CLI to much of Wireshark's functionality, if you are looking to harness Wireshark's protocol analyzers and data manipulation capabilities.
If you wanted to do some digging into Wireshark's source code, it has several C libraries that may be of use, particularly wiretap and epan. Examples of its use can be found in the tshark source. You have to erect quite a bit of scaffolding to use the libraries, however.
If you are looking to develop plugins, this page may hold some answers for you.
