"""Template based text parser.

This module implements a parser, intended to be used for converting
human readable text, such as command output from a router CLI, into
a list of records, containing values extracted from the input text.

A simple template language is used to describe a state machine to
parse a specific type of text input, returning a record of values
for each input entity.

Import it to ~/file/client/common_lib/cros/.
