* Added `skiptop` parameter, if set only apply to children of a node, skip top node
* default is 0
* Functions are merged, ie removed and replaced with more generic functions
* `xml2json_cbuf()`: Added `skiptop` parameter: `xml2json_cbuf(..., int skiptop)`
* `xml2json()` and `xml2json_cb()` merged into `xml2json_file()` with `skiptop`
* Replace `xml2json(...)` with `xml2json_file(..., stdout, 0)`
* Replace `xml2json_cb(...)` with `xml2json_file(..., 0)`
* `clicon_xml2cbuf()`: Added `skiptop` parameter: `clicon_xml2cbuf(..., int skiptop)`
* `xml2cli()`: Added `skiptop` parameter: `xml2cli(..., int skiptop)`
* Load/save JSON config file did not work
* Added rfc7951 parameter to `clixon_json_parse_string()` and `clixon_json_parse_file()`
* If set, honor RFC 7951: JSON Encoding of Data Modeled with YANG, eg it requires module name prefixes
* If not set, parse as regular JSON
* Test: added test_db.sh for datastore format tests
* Stricter checking of outgoing RPC replies from server
* See [RPC output not verified by yang](https://github.com/clicon/clixon/issues/283)
* This lead to some corrections of RPC replies in system code
* Made NETCONF message handling more strict according to RFC 6241
* Set `CLICON_NETCONF_MESSAGE_ID_OPTIONAL` to true to accept omission of message-id attribute
* Fixed: [need make sure message-id exist in rpc validate #240](https://github.com/clicon/clixon/issues/240)
* 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
Added basic rfc8527 support, but without support for:
* ds:operational
* with-origin
* clixon/test/test_rfc8527_*.sh
The current level of rfc8527 support is intended to allow commit
operations on the 'candidate' datastore without rewriting the 'startup'
datastore.
* Only requests on the form: `<rpc xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"><edit-config>...` will be accepted
* All replies will be on the form: `<rpc-reply xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">...`
* Requests such as: `<rpc><edit-config>...` will not be accepted.
* You can revert this behaviour (to clixon pre-4.6 behaviour) by enabling `CLICON_NAMESPACE_NETCONF_DEFAULT`
* This API change is a consequence of: [copy-config's RPC cxobj parameter does not contain namespace #131](https://github.com/clicon/clixon/issues/131)
* NACM recovery user session is now properly enforced. This means that if `CLICON_NACM_CREDENTIALS` is `except` (default), then a specific `CLICON_NACM_RECOVERY_USER` can make any edits and bypass NACM rules.
* If a default value is replaced by an actual value, RESTCONF return values have changed from `204 No Content` to `201 Created`
* clixon-config.yang: Removed default valude of CLICON_NACM_RECOVERY_USER
* `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()`
* If you have used, `ys`, add `xml_spec_set(x, ys)` after the statement
* If you have `xml_type_set(x, TYPE)` or `xml_prefix_set(x, PREFIX)` immediately after the statement, you can remove those and set them directly as: `xml_new(name, PREFIX, xp, TYPE)`
* C-code changes:
- Replaced stream uri:s w constants
- Replaced large debug print code with single clicon_log_xml
- Restconf put and post handling refactored using new parse API
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
* Yang Netconf leaf/leaf-list insert support
* For "ordered-by user" leafs and leaf-lists, the insert and value/key attributes are supported according to RFC7950 Sections 7.7.9 and 7.8.6
* Fixed RESTCONF api-path leaf-list selection was not made properly
