I am trying to understand the itertools library and my data looks like this.
devices = ['devicea', 'deviceb', 'devicec']
data = {'devicea': [{'ip': '192.168.1.1', 'vrf': 'aaa'}, {'ip': '192.168.1.2', 'vrf': 'aaa'}],
'deviceb': [{'ip': '10.1.1.1', 'vrf': 'bbb'}, {'ip': '10.1.1.2', 'vrf': 'bbb'}],
'devicec': [{'ip': '20.1.1.1', 'vrf': 'ccc'}, {'ip': '20.1.1.2', 'vrf': 'ccc'}]}
I would like to get the products of the ip of the combinations of the devices, e.g the result should look like this.
[(192.168.1.1, 10.1.1.1), (192.168.1.1, 10.1.1.2), (192.168.1.1, 20.1.1.1), 192.168.1.1, 20.1.1.2), (192.168.1.2, 10.1.1.1), (192.168.1.2, 10.1.1.2), (192.168.1.2, 20.1.1.1), (192.168.1.2, 20.1.1.2), (10.1.1.1, 20.1.1.1), (10.1.1.1, 20.1.1.2), (10.1.1.2, 20.1.1.1), (10.1.1.2, 20.1.1.2)]
using itertools.combinations I can get the pair of the possible combination of the devices.
device_combination = itertools.combinations(devices, 2)
How can I use itertools.products to find the products of the ip addresses?
Use itertools.combinations() to get all the pairs of devices. Then for each pair, use itertools.product() to get the cross product of IPs, and add these to the result.
result = []
for d1, d2 in itertools.combinations(data.values(), 2):
result.extend(itertools.product([i['ip'] for i in d1], [i['ip'] for i in d2])
