* Added new revision of main example yang: `clixon-example@2020-12-01.yang`
* Fixed [YANG: key statement in rpc/notification list #148](https://github.com/clicon/clixon/issues/148)
* Do not check uniqueness among lists without keys
* Only requests on the form: `<rpc xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"><edit-config>...` will be accepted
* All replies will be on the form: `<rpc-reply xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">...`
* Requests such as: `<rpc><edit-config>...` will not be accepted.
* You can revert this behaviour (to clixon pre-4.6 behaviour) by enabling `CLICON_NAMESPACE_NETCONF_DEFAULT`
* This API change is a consequence of: [copy-config's RPC cxobj parameter does not contain namespace #131](https://github.com/clicon/clixon/issues/131)
* NACM recovery user session is now properly enforced. This means that if `CLICON_NACM_CREDENTIALS` is `except` (default), then a specific `CLICON_NACM_RECOVERY_USER` can make any edits and bypass NACM rules.
* If a default value is replaced by an actual value, RESTCONF return values have changed from `204 No Content` to `201 Created`
* clixon-config.yang: Removed default valude of CLICON_NACM_RECOVERY_USER
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.
* 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
* `clixon_netconf_error(category, xerr, msg, arg)` removed first argument -> `clixon_netconf_error(xerr, msg, arg)`
* Renamed utility function `clixon_util_insert()` to `clixon_util_xml_mod()` and added merge functionality.
* Fixed: Insertion of subtree leaf nodes were not made in the crrect place, always ended up last regardless of yang spec (if ordered-by system).
* `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)`
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.
* Fixed multi-namespace for augmented state which was not covered in 4.2.0.
* The multi-namespace augment state may rearrange the XML namespace attributes.
* Mandatory variables can no longer be deleted.
* New clixon-lib@2019-08-13.yang revision
* Bugfix: If `ietf-netconf.yang` was imported from any yang module, client/backend communication stops working.
The reason is to be conservative with the API. However, less used functions, such as xpath_vec_bool(), xpath_vec_ctx() and xpath_vec_flag() are changed with a new `nsc`parameter, which should be set to NULL in most cases.
* See [Restconf does not handle startup datastore according to the RFC](https://github.com/clicon/clixon/issues/74)
* Netconf Startup feature is no longer hardcoded, you need to explicitly enable it (See RFC 6241, Section 8.7)
* Enable in config file with: `<CLICON_FEATURE>ietf-netconf:startup</CLICON_FEATURE>`, or use `*:*`
* Start with `-- -r` to run the reset plugin
* Start with `-- -s` to run the state callback
* Rewrote yang dir load algorithm to follow the algorithm in [FAQ](FAQ(doc/FAQ.md#how-are-yang-files-found) with more precise timestamp checks, etc.
