Hi,
No convenient way exists. Nor is it strictly necessary at this point.
If we ever completely move away from ifcfg-rh format, then such a tool
will be needed. And it would be useful anyway.
THREAD NECRO (found this while reviewing the network criterion
discussion), but figured this might be of interest to others - I only
found out recently that Fedora CoreOS actually did "move away from
ifcfg-rh format" already. It does not ship the NetworkManager ifcfg
plugin, so you can't use ifcfg files to configure networking in it. I'm
not sure how many people this has tripped up/will trip up, but figured
it might be of interest.
