Find String between characters with multiple occurences in Python

So I want to find a string between 2 characters.
I already did that like this:

import re
str = "Please use <cmd> and after that <cmd2>!"
result = re.search('<(.*)>', str)
print(result.group(1)

The problem about this is that if I perform it it prints the text between the first < and the last > which is not exactly what I want.

cmd> and after that <cmd2

But what I rather want is that I get the first occurence "cmd" and then the second occurence "cmd2" seperatly.
I appreciate your help!

>Solution :

You need to make the capture group non-greedy, and to get all the occurrences, you should use re.findall() rather than re.search():

result = re.findall('<(.*?)>', str)

This outputs:

['cmd', 'cmd2']
