I'm curious to see if there is any interest in a python module which
provides kstat access in the same vein as the current perl support? I
have a prototype written and if there is sufficient interest I'm
willing to share it around. I would like to see it mature somewhat in
the hands of users and then submit it to PSARC for inclusion with
Solaris/OpenSolaris.
As a tease, a cheap knock off of kstat(1m):
#!/usr/bin/env python
import cKstats
import time
def pprint(k):
fmt = '%-7s %-31s %-9s %s'
print fmt % ( 'module:',k.module,'instance:',k.instance )
print fmt % ( 'name:',k.name,'class:',k.classname )
items = k.items()
items.append( ('crtime',k.crtime) )
items.append( ('snaptime',k.snaptime) )
items.sort()
fmt = ' %-31s %s'
for item in items:
print fmt % item
print
kstats = cKstats.lookup()
kstats.sort()
for k in kstats:
pprint(k)
# kstat.py
module: arp instance: 0
