Hello,
I believe there is a simple answer to this, but I am confused on what direction
I should go that would perform what I wish to do most efficiently.
** My Environment ***
[root@f5ite ~/tests]$ python
Python 2.7 (r27:82500, Jul 6 2010, 02:54:50)
[GCC 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-48)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
[root@f5ite ~/tests]$ uname -a
Linux VM-QA-ITE-03 2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.i686 #1 SMP Tue May 15 22:09:39 BST 2012
i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[root@f5ite ~/tests]$ more /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 5.8 (Final)
[root@f5ite ~/tests]$
I need to strip down a string to make a list of "auto" and anything starting w/
"10" and nothing else.
Below is the string I am currently working with.
>> results
'tmsh list net interface 1.1 media-capa \rbilities\nnet interface 1.1 {\n
media-capabilities {\n none\n auto\n 10T-FD\n
10T-HD\n 100TX-FD\n 100TX-HD\n 1000T-FD\n
1000T-HD\n }\n}\n'
>>
I want to chop it up, so I have a list of all media speeds (auto or "10X" that
I can then loop through, so would like to end up with something like below:
>> results
'none', 'auto', '10T-FD'...'1000T-HD'
I could do this using a series of "split" commands. However, is there a better
way? For example, can I just eliminate "media-capabilities", "{" and "}" right
off the bat
and then do a split on "\n"? Should I use "re" matching for this?
I could also just a single split('\n') and then inside the loop ignore
everything that is not "auto" or starts with "10", but that seems inefficient.
Any advice on the best way to do this?
Thanks,
Dave
