some fields are not extracting properly

[harishcr]

I tried to use your script to get ifconfig and I am seeing problem with few fields are not extracting properly, please see below sample test results. Please let me know if I am missing anything, thanks.

harish@xbs3 (master):tests$ cat mytest_ifcfg_parser.py
import pprint
import commands
from ifparser import Ifcfg

ifdata = Ifcfg(commands.getoutput('/sbin/ifconfig -a'))

eth2 = ifdata.get_interface('eth2')
pprint.pprint(eth2.get_values())

harish@xbs3 (master):tests$ python mytest_ifcfg_parser.py
