I have a bunch of sub routines that run independently to perform various system checks on my servers. I wanted to get an opinion on the following code I have about 25 independent checks and I'm adding the ability to disable certain checks that don't apply to certain hosts.
m = { 'a': 'checkDisks()', 'b': 'checkMemSize()', 'c': 'checkBondInterfaces()' } parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='Parse command line args.') parser.add_argument('-x', action="store", dest="d") r = parser.parse_args(sys.argv[1:]) runlist = [ c for c in m.keys() if c not in r.d ] for runable in runlist: eval(m[runable]) I'm using temp variable names for now until I find an approach I like. Is this a good approach ? It doesn't look too pretty and to be honest feels awkward? Sent from my iPhone -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
