* 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`
This include plugin module init and exit functions
New type: clixon_plugin_t exposed via public API while struct clixon_plugin is private
- Makefile changes for static linkage using "LINKAGE=static"
- Moved nacm external init to later stage in backend_main
* 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
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.
* Moved datastore/text/ code to datastore/ since there is only one type of datastore.
* Added "magic script line" to test script for sourced and scriped exits
* These generated the Makefile variables: clixon_DBSPECDIR, clixon_SYSCONFDIR, clixon_LOCALSTATEDIR, clixon_LIBDIR, clixon_DATADIR which have been replaced by generic autoconf variables instead.
* Backend startup modes prior to 3.3.3. As enabled with `configure --with-startup-compat`. Configure option CLICON_USE_STARTUP_CONFIG is also obsoleted.
* Configuration files (non-XML) prior to 3.3.3. As enabled with `configure --with-config-compat`. The template clicon.conf.cpp files are also removed.
* Clixon XML C-lib prior to 3.4.0. As enabled with `configure --with-xml-compat`
