* 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`
* Not backward compatible: All uses of the ca-auth callback in restconf plugins must be changed
* New version is: `int ca_auth(h, req, auth_type, authp, userp)`
* where `auth_type` is the requested authentication-type (none, client-cert or user-defined)
* `authp` is the returned authentication flag
* `userp` is the returned associated authenticated user
* and the return value is three-valued: -1: Error, 0: ignored, 1: OK
* For more info see [clixon-docs](https://clixon-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/restconf.html)
* New clixon-restconf@2020-12-30.yang revision
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.
1. Added #ifdef extern "C" to public header files.
2. Changed variables that are key words in c++, to different names (like ns instead of namespace).
3. Changed char* to const char* for constant strings.
* New clixon-lib@2019-08-13.yang revision
* Bugfix: If `ietf-netconf.yang` was imported from any yang module, client/backend communication stops working.
* 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
* `201 Created` for created resources
* `204 No Content` for replaced resources.
* See [RESTCONF: HTTP return codes are not according to RFC 8040](https://github.com/clicon/clixon/issues/56)
* HTTP `Location:` fields added in RESTCONF POST replies
* Both a "native" stream support and one using nginx/nchan pub/sub.
* See (apps/restconf/README.md) for details.
* clixon-config YAML file has new revision: 2018-10-21.
* If you used old event callbacks API, you need to switch to the streams API
* See clixon_stream.[ch]
* Old streams API which needs to be removed include:
* clicon_log_register_callback()
* subscription_add() --> stream_register()
* backend_notify() and backend_notify_xml() - use stream_notify() instead
* Example uses "NETCONF" stream instead of "ROUTING"
* Added timeout option -t for clixon_netconf - quit after max time.
* For preparation for authorization RFC8341
* Plugins add clixon_plugin_init() and api struct for function pointers, eg:
```
static const struct clixon_plugin_api api = {
"example",
clixon_plugin_init,
...
}
clixon_plugin_api *clixon_plugin_init(clicon_handle h)
{
return (void*)&api;
}
```
* Moved specific plugin functions from apps/ to generic functions in lib/
* New generic plugin load function: clixon_plugins_load()
* Removed client-local netconf plugins netconf_plugin_callbacks()
* This was code used before generic YANG rpc calls
* Added username to clixon handle:
* clicon_username_get() / clicon_username_set()
* Added authentication plugin callback
* Removed some obscure plugin code that seem not to be used (please report if needed!)
* CLI parse hook
* CLICON_FIND_PLUGIN
* clicon_valcb()
* Removed username to rpc calls (added below)
