Implement Cross-Platform VPN Configuration Detection and Parsing

Description

Task

Write functions to extract and parse VPN configuration information from system commands

Acceptance Criteria

  • Supports VPN configuration detection on macOS and Linux
  • Provides detailed VPN configuration information
  • Handles command execution errors gracefully
  • Returns a consistent configuration dictionary across platforms
  • Logs diagnostic information for troubleshooting
  • Minimal false positives in VPN detection
  • Performance overhead is negligible

Summary of Work

This pull request introduces a comprehensive VPN configuration parsing system that supports multiple platforms (macOS and Linux) with robust error handling and modular design.

Key Implementation Details:

  • Created VPNConfigParser class with static and class methods
  • Implemented platform-specific VPN detection for macOS and Linux
  • Used subprocess for system command execution
  • Added comprehensive logging and error handling
  • Supports detection of VPN services, interfaces, and active connections

Parsing Strategies:

  1. macOS Detection:

    • Uses networksetup to list network services
    • Utilizes scutil to check active VPN connections
    • Extracts VPN service names and connection status
  2. Linux Detection:

    • Uses 'ip tuntap' to identify VPN interfaces
    • Checks routing table for active VPN connections
    • Handles different network configurations

Resilience and Error Handling:

  • Graceful fallback for unsupported platforms
  • Comprehensive exception handling
  • Default empty configuration if detection fails
  • Detailed logging for troubleshooting

Future Extensibility:

  • Modular design allows easy addition of new platforms
  • Flexible configuration dictionary for future enhancements

Changes Made

  • Created VPNConfigParser class in src/vpn_config_parser.py
  • Implemented run_command method for system command execution
  • Added parse_macos_vpn_config method for macOS VPN detection
  • Added parse_linux_vpn_config method for Linux VPN detection
  • Created detect_vpn_config method for cross-platform support
  • Implemented comprehensive error handling and logging

Tests

  • Test successful command execution
  • Test command execution failure handling
  • Test macOS VPN configuration parsing (platform-specific)
  • Test Linux VPN configuration parsing (platform-specific)
  • Test cross-platform VPN configuration detection
