Summary
pingparsing is a CLI-tool/Python-library parser and transmitter for the ping command.

CLI Usage
A CLI command (pingparsing command) is included in the package. The command could do the following:

Execute ping and parse the result

Parse ping results from:

file(s)
the standard input

Execute ping and parse the result
If you specify destination(s) to the pingparsing command as positional arguments,
the command executes ping for each destination(s) and parses the result.
ping will execute in parallel for multiple destinations.
The parsed result is outputted in JSON format.

CLI help
usage: pingparsing [-h] [-V] [--max-workers MAX_WORKERS]

[-s PACKET_SIZE] [--ttl TTL] [-w DEADLINE]
[--timeout TIMEOUT] [-I INTERFACE] [--addopts OPTIONS]
[--indent INDENT] [--icmp-reply] [--timezone TIMEZONE]
[--no-color] [--debug | --quiet]
destination_or_file [destination_or_file ...]

positional arguments:
destination_or_file Destinations to send ping or files to parse. '-' for
parsing the standard input.

options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-V, --version show program's version number and exit
--max-workers MAX_WORKERS
Number of threads for when multiple destinations/files
are specified. Defaults to equal two times the number
of cores.
--debug for debug print.
--quiet suppress execution log messages.

Ping Options:
--timestamp {none,epoch,datetime}
[Only for LINUX] none: no timestamps. epoch: add
timestamps with UNIX epoch time format. datetime: add
timestamps with ISO time format.
-c COUNT, --count COUNT
Stop after sending the count. see also ping(8) [-c
count] option description.
-s PACKET_SIZE, --packet-size PACKET_SIZE
Specifies the number of data bytes to be sent.
--ttl TTL Specifies the Time to Live.
-w DEADLINE, --deadline DEADLINE
Timeout before ping exits. valid time units are:
d/day/days, h/hour/hours, m/min/mins/minute/minutes,
s/sec/secs/second/seconds,
ms/msec/msecs/millisecond/milliseconds,
us/usec/usecs/microsecond/microseconds. if no unit
string found, considered seconds as the time unit. see
also ping(8) [-w deadline] option description. note:
meaning of the 'deadline' may differ system from to
system.
--timeout TIMEOUT Time to wait for a response per packet. Valid time
units are: d/day/days, h/hour/hours,
m/min/mins/minute/minutes, s/sec/secs/second/seconds,
ms/msec/msecs/millisecond/milliseconds,
us/usec/usecs/microsecond/microseconds. If no unit
string is found, consider milliseconds as the time
unit. Attempt to send packets with milliseconds
granularity in default. If the system does not support
timeout in milliseconds, round up as seconds. Use
system default if not specified. This option will be
ignored if the system does not support timeout itself.
See also ping(8) [-W timeout] option description.
note: meaning of the 'timeout' may differ from system
to system.
-I INTERFACE, --interface INTERFACE
network interface
--addopts OPTIONS extra command line options

Output Options:
--indent INDENT JSON output will be pretty-printed with the indent
level. (default= 4)
--icmp-reply, --icmp-replies
print results for each ICMP packet reply.
--timezone TIMEZONE Time zone for timestamps.
--no-color Turn off colors.

Library Usage

Execute ping and parse the result
PingTransmitter class can execute ping command and obtain the
ping output as a string.

Sample Code:
import json
import pingparsing

ping_parser = pingparsing.PingParsing()
transmitter = pingparsing.PingTransmitter()
transmitter.destination = "google.com"
transmitter.count = 10
result = transmitter.ping()

print(json.dumps(ping_parser.parse(result).as_dict(), indent=4))

Output:
{
"destination": "google.com",
"packet_transmit": 10,
"packet_receive": 10,
"packet_loss_rate": 0.0,
"packet_loss_count": 0,
"rtt_min": 34.458,
"rtt_avg": 51.062,
"rtt_max": 62.943,
"rtt_mdev": 8.678,
"packet_duplicate_rate": 0.0,
"packet_duplicate_count": 0
}

Parsing ping command output

Sample Code:
import json
from textwrap import dedent
import pingparsing

parser = pingparsing.PingParsing()
stats = parser.parse(dedent("""\

Recommended ping command execution
The following methods are recommended to execute ping command to get the output for parsing.
These commands include an operation that changes the locale setting to English temporarily.

Linux
LC_ALL=C ping <host or IP address> -w <seconds> [option] > <output.file>

Windows
> chcp
Active code page: <XXX> # get current code page

> chcp 437 # change code page to english
> ping <host or IP address> -n <ping count> > <output.file>
> chcp <XXX> # restore code page

Premise
pingparsing expects the locale at the ping command execution environment with English.
Parsing the ping command output with any other locale may fail.
This is because the output of the ping command will change depending on the locale setting.
