It would be great if you could add an example to the README e.g. with full result parsing: <ul style="margin: 1.2em 0px;padding-left: 2em;"> <li style="margin: 0.5em 0px;">load the json file from disk</li> <li style="margin: 0.5em 0px;">loop over every result (json list)</li> <li style="margin: 0.5em 0px;">print some value</li> </ul> </blockquote> The full documentation already has <a href="https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/sagan/#examples">a few examples</a> that should be enough to get you going (I’ve just added some more), but here’s a breakdown of what you’re wanting: <pre style="font-family: Consolas,Inconsolata,Courier,monospace;font-size: 1em; line-height: 1.2em;margin: 1.2em 0px;"><code style="font-family: Consolas,Inconsolata,Courier,monospace;margin: 0px 0.15em; padding: 0px 0.3em; white-space: pre-wrap; border: 1px solid rgb(234, 234, 234); background-color: rgb(248, 248, 248); border-radius: 3px 3px 3px 3px; display: inline;white-space: pre; overflow: auto; border-radius: 3px 3px 3px 3px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 0.5em 0.7em; display: block ! important;display: block; padding: 0.5em; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);" class="language-python">from ripe.atlas.sagan import Result my_results_file = "/path/to/file.txt" with open(my_results_file) as results: for result in results.readlines(): parsed_result = Result.get(result) print(parsed_result.origin) </code></pre> Once you have a <code style="font-family: Consolas,Inconsolata,Courier,monospace;margin: 0px 0.15em; padding: 0px 0.3em; white-space: pre-wrap; border: 1px solid rgb(234, 234, 234); background-color: rgb(248, 248, 248); border-radius: 3px 3px 3px 3px; display: inline;">parsed_result</code>, you have access to all of the properties of that result, which are <a href="https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/sagan/#attributes-methods">defined in the full documentation</a>. <blockquote style="margin: 1.2em 0px;border-left: 4px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); padding: 0px 1em; color: rgb(119, 119, 119); quotes: none;"> Why do I have to use the responses[0] object? Can there be multiple responses with different nsids? </blockquote> In some cases, DNS results can contain multiple responses. In an effort to maintain consistency for all DNS results, we opted to treat all DNS results as if they contain a list of responses — even if that list is of only one response. This makes it easier to write scripts that make use of the object, since you always have a consistent data type in <code style="font-family: Consolas,Inconsolata,Courier,monospace;margin: 0px 0.15em; padding: 0px 0.3em; white-space: pre-wrap; border: 1px solid rgb(234, 234, 234); background-color: rgb(248, 248, 248); border-radius: 3px 3px 3px 3px; display: inline;">parsed_result.responses</code>. I hope that helps! </div> </body> </html>
