This is Part1 of our three-part series on the Text Template Parser library.

Part1 of this series provides an overview of TTP, covers certain TTP basics, and demonstrates parsing network device show-command output using TTP.

Part2 of this series dives into configuration parsing using TTP including TTP 'groups', how order of a group affects processing, and detailing certain regular expression modifiers.

Part3 covers configuration parsing using TTP including using the _start_ modifier, parsing a full configuration, and completing a full-cycle (i.e. using TTP for vars extraction and then Jinja2 for configuration regeneration).
