Subject: Some advice on how to use babel to generate cisco configs
Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2013 09:24:11 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m2liba9uno.fsf@ursys.com.au> (raw)
Good morning,
I have been trying to figure out without much luck how to use babel to
generate some cisco configs.
What I would like to achieve is to have a table containing a few values,
e.g. ip address vlan number etc.
Then have a cisco config in the org file with markers where the
substitutions are to be inserted.
Run through the table and create a node in the org file one for each row
of the table.
The end result should be a set of cisco configs with the substitutions
made. I was hoping to also use shell to call pwgen to generate a
random password to insert.
Hope that ramble made some sort of sence.
Can someone give me some ideas on how to put this together?
I tried to use an org source block and a shell function to parse it. I
couldn't quite tie together how to get the output to work correctly or
how to be able to parse each line....
Kind regards
Bart
