Creating csv file from another file - pisike - Nov-24-2020

unitnumber
idnumber
givenname
manager
department
city
title
mobile
Contents in the file are as below and can only have the above attributes.
i/p:
Quote:('uid=test.test51,ou=People,o=ic.com,o=xerox', {'city': ['Irving'], 'title': ['Application Developer'], 'mobile': ['2054444444'], 'manager': ['test.test100'], 'idnumber': ['44451'], 'department': ['National Claims'], 'mail': ['[email protected]'], 'givenname': ['Test1'], 'unitnumber': ['551']})
