[staf-users] Parsing Verbose Output into maps elements?

[George F. <Geo...@sa...>]

I have some process requests that I fire on different systems and I need to parse out some of the results.  Since the result is in to be Verbose Formatted (after I unmarshall it), I am wondering if there is some way to extract just the data portion as a map or some other data structure? Or am I slaved to parsing the string with python?

For example I want to extract out the “DATA” portion of the following:

{
  Return Code: 0
  Key        : <None>
  Files      : [
    {
      Return Code: 0
      Data       :     mmx2 270750 438492   1 13:27:56  pts/1  0:11 /foo/MEServer
 autousr 438706 336088   0 13:59:54      -  0:00 grep MEServer

    }
  ]
}

thanks
