Expect script import format
---------------------------

This section shows examples of import files containing 
multiline scripts. The purpose of these examples are 
to show the format of the scripts in such files.

The JSON file format shows the line break characters (``\n``) in the 
multiline script. Note that the example here shows ``expect_script``
with three line breaks for display purposes.

::

   {
    "meta": {},
    "resources": [
      {
        "meta": {
          "model_type": "data/ConfigurationTemplate",
          "pkid": "[pkid]",
          "schema_version": "0.1.8",
          "hierarchy": "sys",
          "tags": []
        },
        "data": {
          "target_model_type": "device/ios/Script",
          "name": "Multiline Test",
          "merge_strategy": "additive",
          "template": {
            "description": "Multiline Test",
            "expect_script": "ssh\nhost\npassword\n{{data.Countries.iso_country_code | 
              country_name:'South Africa'}}\nping\nping {{data.Countries.iso_country_code | 
              country_name:'South Africa'}}"
          }
        }
      }
    ]
   }



A MS Excel sheet cell that contains a multiline script would display in the spreadsheet editor across
multiple lines (Using <Alt>-<Enter> for line breaks in MS Excel). The content of the cell would 
then display as:

::
  
   ssh
   host
   password
   {{data.Countries.iso_country_code | country_name:'South Africa'}}
   ping
   ping {{data.Countries.iso_country_code | country_name:'South Africa'}}



These formats can also be obtained by exporting an existing expect script in
either JSON or Excel.
