* 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
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.
* 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 *)`
* Change all y->ys_parent to yang_parent_get(y)
* Change all y->ys_keyword to yang_keyword_get(y)
* Change all y->ys_argument to yang_argument_get(y)
* Change all y->ys_cv to yang_cv_get(y)
* Change all y->ys_cvec to yang_cvec_get(y)
* Renamed yang file `ietf-netconf-notification@2008-07-01.yang` to `clixon-rfc5277`.
* Cligen uses posix regex while yang uses XSD. It differs in some aspects. A translator function has been added for `\d` -> `[0-9]` translation, there may be more.
* [ietf-netconf-notification@2008-07-01.yang validation problem #62](https://github.com/clicon/clixon/issues/62)
* Improved unknown handling
* Configure option `CLICON_YANG_DIR` is changed from a single directory to a path of directories
* Note CLIXON_DATADIR (=/usr/local/share/clixon) need to be in the list
* Yang 1.1 feature and if-feature according to RFC 7950 7.20.1 and 7.20.2.
* See https://github.com/clicon/clixon/issues/41
* Features are declared via CLICON_FEATURE in the configuration file.
* logical combination of features not implemented, eg if-feature "not foo or
* Identity without any identityref:s caused SEGV
* NOTE: Due to an error in the previous implementation, all XPATH calls on the form `x[a=str]` where `str` is a string (not a number or XML symbol), must be changed to: `x[a='str'] or x[a="str"]`
* This includes all calls to `xpath_vec, xpath_first`, etc.
* All calls to cli_copy_config in CLI spec files must replace 2nd argument from `x[%s=%s]` to `x[%s='%s']`
* The old API is stillenabled. To define the new, define XPATH_USE_NEW in include/clixon_custom.h and recompile
* A typical call is: show @datamodel:example, cli_show_auto("candidate", "json");
* The example contains a more elaborate example.
* Thanks ngashok for request, see https://github.com/clicon/clixon/issues/24
* Previous support did no validation of values.
* Validation of types and CLI expansion
* Example extended with inclusion of iana-if-type RFC 7224 interface identities
for (eg cli_commitv). See clixon_cli_api.h for new names.
Use restconf format for internal xmldb keys. Eg /a/b=3,4
Changed example to use multiple cli callbacks
