Hi all,
I need to get a part of string which follows a pattern 'addr='
For example:
a)test=192.168.1.17:/home/ankur/nios_fson/mnt/tmptype
nfs(rw,addr=192.168.1.17)
b)test=/dev/root on / typr nfs
(rw,v2,rsize=1024,wsize=1024,hard,udp,nolock,addr=192.168.1.93)
I need to get the ipaddress from the above two strings a and b which
follows 'addr='. I tried to use cut, but it accepts only single charter
as delimiter. If I give delimiter as 'addr=' for cut command it gives
me a error.
Regular Expressions are probably the easiest way to do this. Example:
import re
str = a)test=192.168.1.17:/home/ankur/nios_fson/mnt/tmptype
nfs(rw,addr=192.168.1.17)
b)test=/dev/root on / typr nfs
(rw,v2,rsize=1024,wsize=1024,hard,udp,nolock,addr=192.168.1.93)
m = re.search(addr=(\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+), str)
print m.group(1)
- Prints: 192.168.1.17
Read the Python manual on Regular Expressions (module re) or google for
Python regular expression tutorials if your search is more complex than
this (or if you want to know what's going on). If you want a good
in-depth text on the subject, I'd recommend J. Friedls Mastering
Regular Expressions.
Have fun.
