说明本仓库为主仓的分支，主要提供中国大陆常用网络设备textFSM。需要注意的是，新华三H3C在海外使用的是hp，所以在此仓库中的hp_comware是指的H3C的路由交换软件平台。为了避免与原包的冲突，请在使用前先删除原包。pip uninstall ntc_templates本仓库的安装方法pip install ntc_templates_elinpftextfsm的开发难免遇到一些不兼容的问题，有使用上的任何问题，欢迎提issue。更新方法：pip install ntc_templates_elinpf -U新增功能读取外部模板在原有的基础上，新增加了支持外部模板的功能：defparse_output(platform=None,command=None,data=None,template_dir:str=None):需要注意的是，template_dir参数需要指定一个文件夹，而不是一个文件。
文件夹中必须包含index文件，并且文件开头必须为以下内容:Template, Hostname, Platform, Command增加返回clitable的方法defget_clitable(platform=None,command=None,template_dir:str=None)->clitable.CliTable:这个方法的目的是可以获取到模板的clitable对象，方便进行一些自定义的操作。关于开发textfsm我重写了原有的development_scripts.py。使它更符合个人的开发习惯。usage: development_script.py [-h] [-v VENDOR] [-c COMMAND] [-g] [-i INDEX] [-b] [-t] [-y] [-s]

The regular expressions use named capture groups to build a text table out of the significant text. The names of the capture groups are used as column headers, and the captured values are stored as rows in the table.This project provides a large collection of TextFSM Templates (text parsers) for a variety of Networking Vendors. In addition to the templates, there is a function that will convert the CLI output into a CliTable object; the resulting text table is converted into a list of dictionaries mapping the column headers with each row in the table.As of v2.0.0, this project usesPoetryfor packaging and distribution. In order to use poetry, thetemplatesdirectory has been moved tontc_templates/templatesInstallation and UsageThe project can be installed using either Git + Poetry or PyPI.Git$gitclonegit@github.com:networktocode/ntc-templates.git

The TextFSM template name should be in the following format:NamingThe template should be named using:{{ vendor_os }}_{{ command_with_underscores }}.textfsmEx: cisco_ios_show_cdp_neighbors.textfsmNote: The vendor name must be valid from theos_choicestests, which is primarily based onNetmikolist of supported vendors. New vendors added should adhere tovendor_os.Ex: vmware_nsxValuesThe capture group names should be in UPPERCASE.An example of the proper format is shown below.Value TIME (\d+:\d+:\d+)
Value TIMEZONE (\S+)
Value DAYWEEK (\w+)
Value MONTH (\d+)
Value DAY (\d+)
Value YEAR (\d+)

Start
  ^${TIME}\s+${TIMEZONE}\s+${DAYWEEK}\s+${DAY}/${MONTH}/${YEAR} -> Record
  ^. -> ErrorStatesIf the raw output has a heading, theStartstate should match on the column headings and then transition to another state that will match the device's output table with the capture groups. This helps ensure the regex patterns for the capture groups are attempting to match the correct information, and allows templates to easily add additional States for tables that have different headings.

BGPTable
 ... omittedEachstateshould end with^. -> Error. This helps to ensure we're accounting for every line within the raw output for the command. This doesn't mean we have to capture all the data as aValue, but we do have to account for it. In addition, it is also good to provide an expression to match blank lines,^\s*$$An example would be the following raw output:NAME: "3640 chassis", DESCR: "3640 chassis"
PID: , VID: 0xFF, SN: FF1045C5The template would be the following:Value NAME (.*)
Value DESCRIPTION (.*)

Start
  ^NAME:\s+"${NAME}",\s*DESCR:\s+"${DESCRIPTION}"
  ^PID:\s*,\s*VID:\s*\S+,\s*SN:\s*\S+
  ^\s*$$
  ^. -> ErrorTaking a look at the example template above, you notice that we're using\s* and\s+. These are the preferred way to match space characters, and should be used over the literal space character. For example,This\s+is\s+preferred\s*$$vsThis is not preferred$$\s* accounts for zero or more spaces (use when the output may or may not have a space between characters)\s+accounts for one or more spaces (use when output will have a space, but could have more than one space)Index FileThe Index file binds the templates to the commands being run. Special care has been taken on ordering, as there is potential for issues. e.g.show ip routepicking up forshow ip router vrf <vrf-name>. We have used a combination of ordering, as defined:OS in alphabetical orderTemplate name in length order (longest to shortest)When length is the same, use alphabetical order of command nameKeep space between OS'sExample:Template, Hostname, Platform, Command

Yamllint provides thorough documentation of their configuration settingshere.Development Helper ScriptsA cli utility is provided to assist with properly building the parsed files. This utility depends on some packages listed in the dev install requirements; seeInstall and Usagefor directions on installing the dev requirements. All arguments that can be passed to the script are mutually exclusive (i.e. you can only pass one argument). The file can be made executable with thechmod +x development_scripts.pycommand. The arguments are:-y: Takes the path to a YAML file and ensures that the file adheres to the .yamllint settings-yd: Takes a glob path to a directory or directories that will ensure all files ending in.ymladhere to the .yamllint settings-c: Takes the path to a.rawfile, and generates the parsed data and saves the results adjacent to the.rawfile following the defined standards in .yamllint.-cd: Takes a glob path to a directory or directories containing.rawfiles, and creates the appropriate parsed files in the appropriate directory.The-yand-ydarguments are designed to allow developers to generate the expected parsed file how they want, and ensure that the formatting adheres to the defined standard for this project.The-cand-cdarguments usentc_templates.parse.parse_output()to generate the parsed data; this means that you can use these arguments to auto-generate the test.ymlfile(s) for new templates; just be sure that the template's parsing behavior meets expectations. In order for the data to be parsed, the template must be placed inntc_templates/templates/and thentc_templates/templates/indexfile must be updated to correctly point to the template file(s).$./development_scripts.py-ydtests/cisco_ios/show_mac-address-table

$QuestionsFor any questions or comments, please feel free to swing by thenetworktocode slack channel.Sign uphereCHANGELOGChangelog should be generated usinggithub_changelog_generatorFAQFrom an outsiders view, some design choices, requirements, and testing procedures can seem arbitrary. The following list of FAQ is intended to
help provide context and better guide users and contributors of ntc-templates.Why is there a requirement to useErrorin every template?Ensuring that the textfsm template can account for every line is the only method to ensure that data was not accidentally missed. Take the following example. Initially we account for status to be:Value STATUS (up|down)Given the result of:Interface                      Status         Protocol Description
Gi0/0/1                        admin down     down
Gi0/0/2                        up             up       ISP Connection
Gi0/0/3                        down           downThe output would miss the G0/0/1 interface, since theSTATUSofadmin downnot known. If this was a low percentage use case, it can go
undetected, and result in incorrect information being returned. Instead, by ensuring that we fail fast, anErroris raised and hopefully
GitHub Issue is put in.Then why isn'tErrorused in all templates?Initially the controls were not as strong, so many templates were put in until issues like the previous became an issue.Does the project support requests for additional templates or additional data in an existing template?We are no longer considering additional template requests at this time. The project has existed for over 5 years (initially within ntc-ansible)
and nearly 200 template at this point any additional requests are essentially edge use cases. Meaning, for five years of usage, no one else
has asked for this feature. There is a limited maintainers who primarily use their free time to maintain the project.Are you open to adding maintainers to the project?Yes, we would consider giving a proven member of the project and community maintainer rights. Please inquiry emailinginfo@networktocode.com.I simply want to add my template to the project, I do not want to add all of these tests and controls, can I just do so?Short answer no, from an outsiders point of view the contributor requirements may seem overly complex, however features added by engineers
rarely come back to support them. The burden of support is on the maintainers and a certain level of quality assurance is required for that to
happen. That includes updating the index file appropriately and adding proper raw and expected value files.Why don't you grab all of the data in the template?There is no intention for ntc-templates to become feature complete, some of the data is less interesting, or can be better understood from
other commands. This is actually an area where the project chose to be loose, as we do not want to over-burden the contributor. If you feel
that the additional data should be added, you are welcome to add the feature, but it would not be considered a bug, and thus not supported by
the maintainers of the this project.Why does the index order matter?The "greediness" of the template match ensures that there longest matches first. For example, ifshow ip ospfwas aboveshow ip ospf database, theshow ip ospftemplate would be used in both cases. The additional steps are because of general programmatic hygiene.Will you accept my template if I create it?In most cases, yes. However, there are a few edge cases. For example if requesting to add ashow cdp neighborswhen there is already ashow cdp neighbors detailstemplate created. That is additional complexity added to the project with little value.Why was my issue closed?The most likely reasons are:Did not follow the Issue creation template.Did not provide the data required to act upon the request.A prolonged time with no response.What is meant that this is a parsing project, not a data modeling project?The project intends to parse, meaning post processing is assumed in order to normalize the data. This project does not intend to solve that
problem set. This is often noted in keys being different between the same command on multiple OS's. This was not intentional as at first there was not strict enforcement. That being said, there is no intention to retrofit this use case for the above stated reasons. This use case is
best handled in post processing.I have never submitted a Pull Request before, how do I do so?This is outside the scope of this project, but thisvideoshould provide the instructions on
how to do so.Does this work on windows?Based on thisPRit should, however this is not a supported option. We are willing
to take in qualified Pull Requests to have the feature, but have no intention of actively supporting.Can you provide general guidance?This is best handled via real time communication. Feel free to join our slack community (sign up information above) and reach out on the #networktocode channel. Please be aware of timezones, downtimes, and help is performed based on goodwill and timing, and not guaranteed.Known IssuesCannot import name clitable from textfsmntc-templatesdepends ontextfsm, which hasn't published a source distribution to pypi in a while. Seehttps://github.com/google/textfsm/issues/65.This means that for users with a build chain that depends on source distributions only (i.e. no wheels), ntc-templates appears to have a bug:File "/usr/local/Cellar/foo/version/libexec/lib/python3.7/site-packages/ntc_templates/parse.py", line 3, in <module>
    from textfsm import clitable
ImportError: cannot import name 'clitable' from 'textfsm'What's actually happening here is that textfsm provides a source distribution only up to version 0.4.1 (2018-04-09) but the ntc-templates code relies on the interface from version 1.1.0 (2019-07-24) which is only available as a wheel. So the way for users to fix this problem if they encounter it is to install textfsm 1.1.0.pip install textfsm==1.1.0This was taken fromhttps://github.com/networktocode/ntc-templates/issues/731
