How to display ipconfig /all in template html django

[Ramin Farajpour Cami]

Hi,

Hi,

I going to show output command "ipconfig /all" in html django template but i have string uncomfortable,

for example :

i going to show this in html :

Windows IP Configuration

PPP adapter VPN:

   Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :

   Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::50a6:e568:7895:590d%24

   IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 172.32.87.176

   Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.255

   Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 0.0.0.0

please see image attached,

In your view, you would need code to execute that command, capture the output, and then provide that output to a variable in your template context. Your template would then access the variable and display the result.

Something like this library may do the heavy lifting of running the command and parsing the results for you. 

https://github.com/ftao/python-ifcfg

A quick Google brought that up. There may be other libraries that interact directly with the Windows internals to pull that information in a bit more of a sane manner, but I haven't looked

Ramin,

I'm sorry but your question is not very clear. How about you capture the output of "ipconfig /all" with something like:

IPconfig = subprocess.check_output(["ipconfig", "/all"], stderr=devnull)

then add Config to your template context in a view something like:

    def get_context_data(self, *args, **kwargs):
        context = super().get_context_data(*args, **kwargs)
        context['IPconfig'] = IPconfig
        return context

Though it depends on whether you're using class based generic views or standard views for example, but just look on-line for how to add data to a templates context.

Good luck. But if you want better help, try and be more clear about what you want and how you envisage achieving it I guess, share a description or sample of your template and view etc.

Regards

Bernd.

Thanks Bernd,

Your right, but i have problem show in view with output format ipconfig in html,

i try display :

PPP adapter VPN:

   Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :

   Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::50a6:e568:7895:590d%24

   IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 172.32.87.176

   Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.255

   Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 0.0.0.0

but now i have :

PPP adapter VPN:Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::50a6:e568:7895:590d%24IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : X.X.X.XSubnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.255Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 0.0.0.0

Do you have idea?

Ramin,

That's an HTML question, and nothing to do with Django. In HTML whitespace all just collapses to a single space, newlines included, and you need to request them explicitly.

You can wrap it all in a <pre> </pre>  tag pair or replace \n with <br> in your string, but that is just two of  a plethora of options (including CSS styling, tables, and more, you can even use Django template filters and tags to to help, literally no shortage of ways to format and render this stuff), and you'd be the one to decide which is best for your desired layout.

No simple answer I'm afraid :-(.
