Introduction

Show configuration parser i.e. shconfparser is a Python library, whcih parser Network configurations. This library examines the config and breaks it into a set of parent and clild relationships.

shconfparser is a vendor independent library where you can parse the following formats:

• Tree structure i.e. show running
• Table structure i.e. show ip interface
• Data i.e. show version

Tree Structure

Table Structure

How to use shconfparser?

• For Tree structure

.. code:: python

from shconfparser.parser import Parser from os import path file_path = path.abspath('data/shcommands.txt') p = Parser() data = p.read(file_path) # read file content data = p.split(data) # split each show commands and it's data data['running'] = p.parse_tree(data['running']) # translating show running data to tree format p.dump(data['running'], indent=4) # running data in tree format

.. code:: json

• For Table structure

.. code:: python

header_names = ['Device ID', 'Local Intrfce', 'Holdtme', 'Capability', 'Platform', 'Port ID'] data['cdp_neighbors'] = p.parse_table(data['cdp_neighbors'], header_names=header_names) p.dump(data['cdp_neighbors'], indent=4)

.. code:: json

[ { "Device ID": "R2", "Local Intrfce": "Fas 0/0", "Holdtme": "154", "Capability": "R S I", "Platform": "3725", "Port ID": "Fas 0/0" } ]

• For Data

.. code:: python

data['version'] = p.parse_data(data['version']) p.dump(data['version'], indent=4)

.. code:: json

FAQ

• | Question: I want to use shconfparser with Python3, is that safe? | Answer: As long as you’re using python 3.3 or higher, it’s safe. I tested every release against python 3.1+, however python 3.1 and 3.2 not running in continuous integration test.

• | Question: I want to use shconfparser with Python2, is that safe? | Answer: As long as you’re using python 2.7 or higher, it’s safe. I tested against python 2.7.
