* 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.
* Added urn:ietf:params:netconf:capability:yang-library:1.0
* Thanks SCadilhac for helping out, see https://github.com/clicon/clixon/issues/39
* uri_percent_encode() and xml_chardata_encode() changed to use stdarg parameters
* 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.
* 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
* The previous XPATH imlementation was very restricted.
* The only function implemented is the Yang extension "current()". No other functions are implemented (eg last(), count()).
* 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 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)
* Builds and installs a new restconf library: libclixon_restconf.so and clixon_restconf.h
* The restconf library can be included by a restconf plugin.
* Example code in example/Makefile.in and example/restconf_lib.c
* Authorization
* Example extended with authorization
* Test added with http basic authorization (test/test_auth.sh)
* Documentation in FAQ.md
* README.md extended with new yang, netconf, restconf, datastore, and auth sections.
