jc - JSON Convert /etc/resolve.conf file parser

This parser may be more forgiving than the system parser. For example, if multiple search lists are defined, this parser will append all entries to the search field, while the system parser may only use the list from the last defined instance.

Usage (cli):

$ cat /etc/resolve.conf | jc --resolve-conf

Usage (module):

import jc
result = jc.parse('resolve_conf', resolve_conf_output)

Schema:

{
  "domain":             string,
  "search": [
                        string
  ],
  "nameservers": [
                        string
  ],
  "options": [
                        string
  ],
  "sortlist": [
                        string
  ]
}

Examples:

$ cat /etc/resolve.conf | jc --resolve-conf -p
{
  "search": [
    "eng.myprime.com",
    "dev.eng.myprime.com",
    "labs.myprime.com",
    "qa.myprime.com"
  ],
  "nameservers": [
    "10.136.17.15"
  ],
  "options": [
    "rotate",
    "ndots:1"
  ]
}
