I need to write all the output CSV files to a different folder. For example if .pcap
files were in subfolders Sub1
, Sub2
. And Sub1
has a1.pcap
and a2.pcap
. Sub2 has b1.pcap
and b2.pcap
.
I need my output CSV files to get written into a folder with the same names as above. Sub1
, Sub2
, then Sub1
should have a1.csv
, a2.csv
. Sub2
should have b1.csv
, b2.csv
.
How can I do that please?
I am getting the error below:
outputdir = startdir / "Outcsv"
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for /: 'str' and 'str'
The code is:
import os
startdir= '/root/Desktop/TTT'
suffix= '.pcap'
outputdir = startdir / "Outcsv"
for root,dirs, files, in os.walk(startdir):
for name in files:
if name.endswith(suffix):
filename = os.path.join(root,name)
output_filename = outputdir / filename.relative_to(startdir)
cmd = 'tshark -r {} -T fields -e frame.number -e frame.time_relative -e wlan.sa -e wlan.da -e wlan.ta -e wlan.ra -e frame.time_delta_displayed -e frame.len -E header=y -E separator=, -E quote=d -E occurrence=f > {}.csv'
final_cmd = cmd.format(filename, output_filename)
os.system(final_cmd)
If you are trying to recreate a folder structure at a different location you will need to ensure that the folders are created. This can be done using the os.makedirs()
command. The subfolder structure can be determined by using any path deeper than startdir
. This can then be appended onto your outputdir
location.
The file extension can also be replaced by using os.path.splitext()
.
For example:
import os
startdir = '/root/Desktop/TTT'
suffix= '.pcap'
outputdir = os.path.join(startdir, "Outcsv")
for root, dirs, files, in os.walk(startdir):
for name in files:
if name.lower().endswith(suffix):
sub_folders = root[len(startdir)+1:]
input_filename = os.path.join(root, name)
output_path = os.path.join(outputdir, sub_folders)
os.makedirs(output_path, exist_ok=True) # Ensure the output folder exists
output_filename = os.path.join(output_path, os.path.splitext(name)[0] + '.csv')
cmd = 'tshark -r {} -T fields -e frame.number -e frame.time_relative -e wlan.sa -e wlan.da -e wlan.ta -e wlan.ra -e frame.time_delta_displayed -e frame.len -E header=y -E separator=, -E quote=d -E occurrence=f > {}'
final_cmd = cmd.format(input_filename, output_filename)
print(final_cmd)
os.system(final_cmd)
Call tshark, (something like this )
f_in = 'x.pcap'
f_out = 'x.csv'
tshark_template = 'tshark -r {} -T fields -e frame.number -e frame.time -e eth.src -e eth.dst -e ip.src -e ip.dst -e ip.proto -E header=y -E separator=, -E quote=d -E occurrence=f > {}'
final_tshark_cmd = tshark_template.format(f_in,f_out)
Build the command dynamically using python, so you can control the names of the files.
Each -e
stands for a field that you want to be in the output.
