I need to get full config of block by some command in middle. In the following example, I got an incomplete block where more indented children 'ip 10.2.2.1' were missing.
from ciscoconfparse import CiscoConfParse
from pprint import pprint
config = """
hostname switch
interface Vlan2
description vlan2
ip address 10.2.2.3/24
hsrp 2
ip 10.2.2.1
interface Vlan3
description vlan3
ip address 10.3.3.3/24
hsrp 3
ip 10.3.3.1
""".splitlines()
ccp = CiscoConfParse(config=config)
blocks = ccp.find_blocks("10.2.2.3/24")
print(blocks) # ['interface Vlan2', ' description vlan2', ' ip address 10.2.2.3/24', ' hsrp 2']
Help me to find elegant way to get next output (with 'ip 10.2.2.1')
['interface Vlan2', ' description vlan2', ' ip address 10.2.2.3/24', ' hsrp 2', 'ip 10.2.2.1']
Using CiscoConfParse 1.9.37...
from ciscoconfparse import CiscoConfParse
config = """
hostname switch
interface Vlan2
description vlan2
ip address 10.2.2.3/24
hsrp 2
ip 10.2.2.1
interface Vlan3
description vlan3
ip address 10.3.3.3/24
hsrp 3
ip 10.3.3.1
""".splitlines()
ccp = CiscoConfParse(config=config)
# Find '10.2.2.3/24' and then recurse back to the interface object...
intfobj = ccp.find_objects("10.2.2.3/24")[0].all_parents[0]
# Buld a list of the parent interface plus all its children
intf_list = [intfobj]
intf_list.extend(intfobj.all_children)
# Use recurse=True to search through multiple child levels...
# Use \d to ensure that you select the HSRP address instead of 'ip address'
addrobj = ccp.find_child_objects(intfobj.text, "ip\s+\d\S+", recurse=True)[0]
hsrp_addr = addrobj.re_match("ip (\S.+)")
print(hsrp_addr)
print("")
print([ii.text for ii in intf_list])
This prints:
10.2.2.1
['interface Vlan2', ' description vlan2', ' ip address 10.2.2.3/24', ' hsrp 2', ' ip 10.2.2.1']
To get the full block of children, just use all_children on that object...
You should avoid find_blocks(), it's part of the old API which I will deprecate in version 2.0.
