I'm taking information about points from multiple files and create new files for each point based on template. The problematic file looks like this
...
Point number:"Number"
info
info
...
Point number:"Number"
info
info
info
info
...
etc
Number of line with information can vary.
I'm uing re.findall() to search for points like this
point_info = re.findall(r"(?ms)^P.*?$.*?^;$", file.read())
But when i try to put it in my template, i'm getting
['Point number:"Number" n info n info n info n info n ']
I use .substitute to insert info into template. Template looks like this
Template
...
...
...
$point_info
...
...
While input code
d = 'point_info ': point_info
result = src.substitute(d)
output_file.write(result) #opened beforehand
How can i get my output to look exactly like in main file, keeping in mind that amount of lines can differ?
(template has many other $variables, just not mentioned here)
