How to create a list using the input string received

Question

I have written a python code to convert string into list and then compare status of each items.

Able to convert the list as: Each field is separated by more than one spaces(or tab):

['abc   2/2     Running   2          5h', 'def      3/3     Running   0          6h', 'xyz       1/1     Running   0          5h']

I want to convert this into :

[['abc','2/2','Running','2','5h'], ['def','3/3','Running','0','6h'], ['xyz','1/1','Running','0',  '5h']]

I want to verify all the status of the items(3rd field). If status of all 3 items are "Running", flag_variable is set to True else False.

 from pexpect import pxssh
 import pexpect

 def Login_Server(hostip,user,passwd):
   User_Info_out = []
   Cmd_Out = ' '
   try:
     Cmd = pxssh.pxssh()
     Cmd.login(hostip, user, passwd)
     Cmd_Out = Execute_Script4(Cmd)

   except pxssh.ExceptionPxssh as e:
     User_Info_out = 'None'
   return User_Info_out,Cmd_Out

 def Execute_Script4(Cmd):
     getpod_out,Cmd_Out1b = ' ', ' '
     pod_status = []
     print("********************")
     Cmd.sendline('sudo su ')
     Cmd.prompt()
     Cmd.sendline('kubectl get pods')
     Cmd.prompt()
     getpod_out  = Cmd.before
     pod_status = getpod_out.split()
     print("script output:")
     print (getpod_out)
     print("****************")
     getpod_out=getpod_out.splitlines()[3:-1]
     print(getpod_out)
     print(type(getpod_out))

 Login_Server('XXX.XXX.X.XX','usera','password')

output:

 ********************
 script output:
 sudo su
 root@workernode8:/home/ubuntu# kubectl get pods
 NAME     READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
 abc      2/2     Running   2          5h
 def      3/3     Running   0          6h
 xyz      1/1     Running   0          5h
 root@workernode8:/home/ubuntu#
 ****************
 ['abc   2/2     Running   2          5h', 'def      3/3     Running   0          6h', 'xyz       1/1     Running   0          5h']
 <type 'list'>

read something about python `split` and try again, should be pretty straight forward — Marcus.Aurelianus, Jul 28 '20 at 14:19
Does this answer your question? [How to split a string into a list?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/743806/how-to-split-a-string-into-a-list) — MLavrentyev, Jul 28 '20 at 14:21
Can you clarify what exactly is your question? You already know about ``str.split``, what problem do you have splitting ``'abc 2/2 Running 2 5h'`` into ``['abc','2/2','Running','2','5h']``? What is ``flag_variable``? Do you know how do 2. if you were to have the result of 1.? — MisterMiyagi, Jul 28 '20 at 14:39

Here is how you can use split():

def check(lst):
    lst = [[i for i in s.split() if i] for s in lst]
    flag_variable = all(i[2]=='Running' for i in lst)

Your function should probably `return` something. – Trenton McKinney Jul 28 '20 at 20:49
I can't be sure what the function is supposed to do. – Red Jul 28 '20 at 20:50
_I want to verify all the status of the items(3rd field). If status of all 3 items are "Running", flag_variable is set to True else False._ so it should return `flag_variable` as `True` or `False`. Or just `return all(i[2]=='Running' for i in lst)` – Trenton McKinney Jul 28 '20 at 20:52
Thanks. This code is working. When we pass the list to the function, it splits the data as expected and returns true if "Running" else False. – Lakshanth C Jul 29 '20 at 03:48
