* First version of clixon-autocli.yang semantics
* Default rules for module exclusion, list-keywords, completion, treeref-state
* Specialized rules for compress and exclusion of modules
* See [autocli documentation](https://clixon-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cli.html#autocli)
* Obsoleted and moved autocli config options from clixon-config.yang to clixon-autocli.yang as follows:
* `CLICON_CLI_GENMODEL`, use: `autocli/module-default=false` instead
* Removed `clicon_cli_genmodel()`
* `CLICON_CLI_GENMODEL_TYPE`, use `autocli/list-keyword-default` and compress rules instead)
* Removed `clicon_cli_genmodel_type()`
* `CLICON_CLI_GENMODEL_COMPLETION`, use `autocli/completion-default` instead
* Removed `clicon_cli_genmodel_completion()`
* `CLICON_CLI_AUTOCLI_EXCLUDE`, use `autocli/rule/operation=exclude` instead
* `CLICON_CLI_MODEL_TREENAME`, use constant `AUTOCLI_TREENAME` instead
* Removed `clicon_cli_model_treename()`
* New YANG functions: yang_single_child_type, yang_find_namespace_by_prefix, yang_str2key
* Changed return values of yang_find_prefix_by_namespace
* Merged `cli_cli2xml()` into `cli2xml()`
* clixon_restconf daemon is installed in /usr/local/sbin (as clixon_backend), instead of /www-data
* `configure --with-wwwdir=<dir>` remains but only applies to fcgi socket and log
* New option `CLICON_RESTCONF_INSTALL_DIR` is set to where clixon_restconf is installed, with default `/usr/local/sbin/`
* Restconf drop privileges user is defined by `CLICON_RESTCONF_USER`
* `configure --with-wwwuser=<user>` is removed
* clixon_restconf drop of privileges is defined by `CLICON_RESTCONF_PRIVILEGES` option
* New clixon-restconf@2020-05-20.yang revision
* Added: restconf `log-destination`
- Restconf auth=none changes
- Load clixon-restconf and resolve features earlier so that config features work
- Removed auth=none code from example (this was non-std half-baked basic auth)
- Changed tests that used auth-type=none to enable feature clixon-restconf:allow-auth-none
- Moved cert creation from sub-shell to servercert function
- Fixed typos for dockerfile rename of restconf evhtp to native
* Except `CLICON_RESTCONF_DIR` which remains in clixon-config.yang due to bootstrapping
* -d <dir> option removed
* This applies to both evhtp and fcgi RESTCONF
* Both can also read config from backend, and be started from backend
* You may need to move config as follows (from clixon-config.yang to clixon-restconf.yang)
* CLICON_RESTCONF_PRETTY -> restconf/pretty
* CLICON_RESTCONF_PATH -> restconf/fcgi-path
* A new configuration option `CLICON_CONFIGDIR` has been added for loading of extra config files
* If not given, only the main configfile is loaded.
* If given, and if the directory exists, the files in this directory will be loaded alphabetically AFTER the main config file in the following way:
* leaf values are overwritten
* leaf-list values are appended
* You can override file setting with `-E <dir>` command-line option.
* New clixon-config@2020-10-01.yang revision
* Added option for configuration directory: `CLICON_CONFIGDIR`
* A generated clispec including state (default @datanodestate) also generated along with the config clispec tree (default @datanode)
* New mode `GT_HIDE` set by option `CLICON_CLI_GENMODEL_TYPE` to collapse non-presence containers that only contain a single list
* Added a prfix for cli_show_config/cli_show_auto so that it can produce parseable output
* Thanks dcornejo@netgate.com for trying it out and suggestions
* `clixon_netconf_error(category, xerr, msg, arg)` removed first argument -> `clixon_netconf_error(xerr, msg, arg)`
* Renamed utility function `clixon_util_insert()` to `clixon_util_xml_mod()` and added merge functionality.
* Fixed: Insertion of subtree leaf nodes were not made in the crrect place, always ended up last regardless of yang spec (if ordered-by system).
* `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
Major New features
* New and updated search functions using xpath, api-path and instance-id
* New search functions using api-path and instance_id:
* C search functions: `clixon_find_instance_id()` and `clixon_find_api_path()`
* Binary search optimization in lists for indexed leafs in all three formats.
* This improves search performance to O(logN) which is drastical improvements for large lists.
* You can also register explicit indexes for making binary search (not only list keys)
* For more info, see docs at [paths](https://clixon-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/paths.html) and
[search](https://clixon-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/xml.html#searching-in-xml)
API changes on existing features (you may need to change your code)
* On failed validation of leafrefs, error message changed from: `No such leaf` to `No leaf <name> matching path <path>`.
* CLI Error message (clicon_rpc_generate_error()) changed when backend returns netconf error to be more descriptive:
* Original: `Config error: Validate failed. Edit and try again or discard changes: Invalid argument`
* New (example): `Netconf error: application operation-failed Identityref validation failed, undefined not derived from acl-base . Validate failed. Edit and try again or discard changes"
Minor changes
* Test framework
* Added `-- -S <file>` command-line to main example to be able to return any state to main example.
* Added `test/cicd` test scripts for running on a set of other hosts
* C-code restructuring
* clixon_yang.c partitioned and moved code into clixon_yang_parse_lib.c and clixon_yang_module.c and move back some code from clixon_yang_type.c.
* partly to reduce size, but most important to limit code that accesses internal yang structures, only clixon_yang.c does this now.
The reason is to be conservative with the API. However, less used functions, such as xpath_vec_bool(), xpath_vec_ctx() and xpath_vec_flag() are changed with a new `nsc`parameter, which should be set to NULL in most cases.
* Added regex cache to type resolution
* Added compiled regexp parameter as part of internal yang type resolution functions
* All internal `ys_populate_*()` functions (except ys_populate()) have switched parameters: `clicon_handle, yang_stmt *)`
