Last August [1], I offered this alternative:
self.cmd = (cmd.replace(r'${ADDR}',ip)

But it didn't get much love in this forum!
I'd probably go for that one as well though I might consider removing

At any rate, I proposed the 3-line format specifically because it
separates the data values from the if-then-else machinery, making it
easier (for me) to read. But there was considerable resistance to
spending so much vertical space in the source code.
