What it does

Parses a TCP header and payload (if present).

Note

Status here means the operation name is implemented and callable. It does not by itself promise byte-for-byte parity for every upstream option. See Compatibility and current status for the verified scope and known boundaries.

Arguments and options

Arguments are positional. Keep their order when using bake() or Pipeline.then().

Important

This is a call template built from the documented defaults. Replace placeholder values such as empty keys, paths, patterns, or lookup data before running it.

from pychef import bake

input_value = "example"
args = ['Hex']
result = bake(input_value, [{"op": 'Parse TCP', "args": args}])
print(result)

Pipeline example

from pychef import Pipeline

args = ['Hex']
transform = Pipeline().then('Parse TCP', *args)
result = transform("example")

Dedicated operation module

The registered entry point lives in pychef.operations.by_operation.parse_tcp. Direct calls receive the input value and a positional argument tuple:

from pychef.operations.by_operation.parse_tcp import run

result = run("example", tuple(['Hex']))
pychef.operations.by_operation.parse_tcp.run(value, args)

Run this operation using its shared internal implementation.

Parameters:
  • value (str | bytes)

  • args (Sequence[Any])

Return type:

str | bytes
