This accepts the standard confluent expression syntax, allowing for things like 172.30.1.{n1} or {node}.{dns.domain} or {bmc}. It can also read from the confluent db, using `-a`. In this mode, each net.. group is pulled together into hosts lines. ipv4_address and ipv6_address fields are associated with the corresponding hostname attributes. ## EXAMPLES -* Generate /etc/hosts entries ad-hoc using default name +* Generate /etc/hosts entries ad-hoc using default name: `# confluent2hosts -i 10.2.3.{n1} d9-d12` -* Generate /etc/hosts entries ad-hoc using alternative name +* Generate /etc/hosts entries ad-hoc using alternative name: `# confluent2hosts -i 10.2.3.{n1} -n "{node}-alt {node}-alt.{dns.domain}" d9-d12` -* Generate /etc/hosts entries using the confluent DB as a reference +* Generate /etc/hosts entries using the confluent DB as a reference: `# confluent2hosts -a d9-d12`
