Note that the practice on this list is to put your response after the

Are you willing to learn some Python, if someone gets you started?
Would it be helpful if someone provided Python code to convert this:

set interfaces ge-0/0/0 unit 0 family inet address 10.17.10.1/24

to this:

interfaces {
    ge-2/0/5 {
        unit 0 {
            family inet {
                address 10.17.10.1/24;
            }
        }
    }
}

?
