New API is as follows:
* `clixon_xml2file()` - Print internal tree as XML to file
* `clixon_xml2cbuf()` - Print internal tree as XML to buffer
* `clixon_json2file()` - Print internal tree as JSON to file
* `clixon_json2cbuf()` - Print internal tree as JSON to buffer
* `clixon_cli2file()` - Print internal tree as CLI format to file
* `clixon_txt2file()` - Print internal tree as text format to file
* 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
* The new callback contains parameters for paging
* Goal is to replace ca_statedata callback
* New plugin callback when lock/unlock occurs
* Add `ca_lockdb` tro plugin init to use it.
* Fixed: Typing 'q' in CLI more paging did not properly quit output
* Output continued but was not shown, for a very large file this could cause considerable delay
* Fixed: Lock was broken in first get get access
* if the first netconf operation to a backend was lock;get;unlock, the lock was broken in the first get access.
* 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* A stricter binding which gives error if loading outdated YANG file does not exist.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
* New clixon-lib@2020-12-30.yang revision
* Added callback to process-control RPC feature in clixon-lib.yang to manage processes
* Changed behavior of starting restconf internally using `CLICON_BACKEND_RESTCONF_PROCESS` monitoring changes in enable flag, not only the RPC.
* Changed: RPC process-control output parameter status to pid
The cached xml version might be missing the yang information. This
breaks netconf validation of the running database:
yangcli admin@192.168.0.1> validate source=startup
RPC Error Reply 3 for session 3:
rpc-reply {
rpc-error {
error-type application
error-tag operation-failed
error-severity error
error-message 'No spec found radio-dn'
}
}
Make sure that the cached database respects the yb parameter.
* 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)
* In summary, a user registers an upgrade callback per module. The callback is called at startup if the module is added, has been removed or if the revision on file is different from the one in the system.
* The register function has removed `from` and `rev` parameters: `upgrade_callback_register(h, cb, namespace, arg)`
* The callback function has a new `op` parameter with possible values: `XML_FLAG_ADD`, `XML_FLAG_CHANGE` or `XML_FLAG_CHANGE`: `clicon_upgrade_cb(h, xn, ns, op, from, to, arg, cbret)`
* `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)`
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.
