- fixed typo preventing evaluation of confirmed-commit logic in backend_startup
- fixed uninitialized variable warnings
- added details to CHANGELOG.MD
- added capabilities advertisement for confirmed-commit 1.0 and 1.1
- added xml hello message that uses only eom framing, for simplicity in asynch tests
- add stty restore after wait_restconf to fix console corruption in tests
- adjust test_confirmed_commit to drop perms and run as the invoking user. This will require running user to have permissions on /usr/local/var/example
- added CLI tests
* This enables that RPOC handles can call commit and validate via lib
* The commit/validate API is now: `candidate_validate()` and `candidate_commit()`
* This means that files and datastores supporting modstate also looks for deleted or updated yang modules.
* A stricter binding which gives error if loading outdated YANG file does not exist.
* Stricter yang checks: you cannot do get-config on datastores that have obsolete YANG
* Added xerr output parameter to `xmldb_get0()`
* Replaces the hardcoded "config" keyword.
* Implemented by a compile-time option called `DATASTORE_TOP_SYMBOL` option in clixon_custom.h
* Tests: added endtest to all tests. Removed all premature exits if BE=0
* Enforcing RFC 7950 Sec 7.6.1 means unassigned top-level leafs (or leafs under non-presence containers) are assigned default values.
* NACM default behaviour is read-only (empty configs are dead-lockedd)
* This applies if NACM is loaded and `CLICON_NACM_MODE` is `internal`
* Fixed: [default values don't show up in datastores #111](https://github.com/clicon/clixon/issues/111)
* Added: stats RPC for clixon XML and memory statistics.
* Added: restart-plugin RPC for restarting individual plugins without restarting backend.
* xml-stats moved from clixon-config.yang as state data to an rpc `datastats` in clixon-lib.yang
* Experimental: restart_plugin
* Two new plugin callbacks added
* ca_daemon: Called just after a server has "daemonized", ie put in background.
* ca_trans_commit_done: Called when all plugin commits have been done.
* Note: If you have used "end" callback and usign transaction data, you should probably use this instead.
* `clixon_xml_parse_string()`
* `clixon_xml_parse_file()`
* New JSON parsing API, with same signature as XML parsing:
* `clixon_json_parse_string()`
* `clixon_xml_parse_file()`
* XML YANG binding API have been rearranged as follows:
* `xml_bind_yang_rpc()`
* `xml_bind_yang_rpc_reply()`
* `xml_bind_yang()`
* `xml_bind_yang0()`
w-level general upgrades and as a complement to module-specific upgrade.
* Called on startup after initial XML parsing, but before module-specific upgrades
* Enabled by definign the `.ca_datastore_upgrade`
* [General-purpose upgrade documentation](https://clixon-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/backend.html#ge
neral-purpose)
* JSON parse error messages change from ` on line x: syntax error,..` to `json_parse: line x: syntax err
or`
* Unknown-element error message is more descriptive, eg from `namespace is: urn:example:clixon` to: `Fai
led to find YANG spec of XML node: x with parent: xp in namespace urn:example:clixon`.
* C-API parse and validation API more capable
* `xml_spec_populate` family of functions extended with three-value return values
* -1: error, 0: parse OK, 1: parse and YANG binding OK.
* `xml_parse` and `json_parse` API changes
* Three value returns: -1: error, 0: parse OK, 1: parse and YANG binding OK.
* Extended `xml_parse_file2` and `xml_parse_string2` extended API functions with all options available.
* New concept called `yang_bind` that defines how XML symbols are bound to YANG after parsing
* Existing API same except `xml_parse_file` `endtag` argument moved to `xml_parse_file2`
* C-API: Added instrumentation: `xml_size` and `xml_stats_get`.
* Fixed: Enabling modstate (CLICON_XMLDB_MODSTATE), changing a revision on a yang, and restarting made the backend daemon exit at start (thanks Matt)
* Also: ensure to load `ietf-yang-library.yang ` if CLICON_XMLDB_MODSTATE is set
* This occurs in cases where there are more than one XML namespaces in a config tree, such as `augment`:ed trees.
* Affects all parts of the system, including datastore, backend, restconf and cli.
* Invalid api-path syntax (eg non-matching yang) error changed from 412 operation-failed to 400 Bad request invalid-value, or unknown-element.
* Restconf RFC 8040 increased feature compliance
* Cache-Control: no-cache added in HTTP responses (RFC Section 5.5)
* Restconf monitoring capabilities (RFC Section 9.1)
* Added support for Yang extensions
* New plugin callback: ca_extension
* Main backend example includes example code on how to implement a Yang extension in a plugin.
* JSON changes
* Non-pretty-print output removed all extra spaces.
* Example: `{"nacm-example:x": 42}` --> {"nacm-example:x":42}`
* Empty JSON container changed from `null` to `{}`.
* Empty list and leafs remain as `null`
* Removed unnecessary configure dependencies
* libnsl, libcrypt, libm, if_vlan,...
* pseudo-plugin added, to enable callbacks also for main programs. Useful for extensions
* Yang Unique statements with multiple schema identifiers did not work on some platforms due to memory error.
* Renamed startup_db_reset -> xmldb_db_reset (its a general function)
* In startup_extraxml(), check if reset callbacks or extraxml file actually makes and changes to the tmp db.
* also renamed `xml_insert` to `xml_wrap_all`.
* Added `clicon_argv_get()` function to get the user command-line options, ie the args in `-- <args>`. This is an alternative to using them passed to `plugin_start()`.
