* RFC8040 Restconf replay support: start-time and stop-time query parameter support
* This only applies to "native" restconf stream support, Nchan mode has different replay functionality
* RFC5277 Netconf replay support using <startTime> and
* Replay support is only in-memory and not persistent. External time-series DB could be added.
* 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.
* Except clixon-config module due to bug reported below
* Bug: Top-level Yang symbol cannot be called "config" in any imported yang file.
* datastore uses "config" as reserved keyword for storing any XML whoich collides with code for detecting Yang sanit
* 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
://localhost/streams).
* Example: new stream "foo" will get access URL: https://localhost/streams/\
foo
* Optional pub/sub support enabled by ./configure --enable-publish
* Set publish URL base with: CLICON_STREAM_PUB_PREFIX (default http://local\
host/pub)
* Example: new stream "foo" will get pub URL: https://localhost/pub/foo
* Changed Netconf hello to single capabilty urn:ietf:params:netconf:capability:yang-library:1.0 according to YANG 1.1 RFC7950 Sec 5.6.4.
* Set by option: CLICON_MODULE_LIBRARY_RFC7895 - enabled by default
* Option CLICON_MODULE_SET_ID is set and changed when modules change.
* 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
* Clarified semantics of main yang module:
* -y option to commands MUST specify filename
* CLICON_YANG_MODULE_MAIN MUST specify a module
* yang_parse() changed to take either filename or module name and revision.
* Removed clicon_dbspec_name[_set]().
* Use yang_main_module_name() instead.
* Replaced yang_spec_main with yang_spec_parse_module
* Added yang_spec_parse_file
* 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.
* That is, limited support of: ietf-yang-library.yang
* For example: `<module><name>example</name><revision/></module><module><name>ietf-restconf-monitoring</name><revision>2017-01-26</revision></module>...`
* Comply to RFC 8040 3.5.3.1 rule: api-identifier = [module-name ":"] identifier
* The "module-name" was a no-op before.
* This means that there was no difference between eg: GET /restconf/data/ietf-yang-library:modules-state and GET /restconf/data/XXXX:modules-state
* 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
* CLICON_NACM_MODE config option, default is disabled.
* Added username attribute to all rpc:s from frontend to backend
* Added NACM backend module in example
* Backend RPC register callback function (Netconf RPC or restconf operation POST) has been changed from: `backend_rpc_cb_register()` to `rpc_callback_register()`
* Backend RPC callback signature has been changed from: `int cb(clicon_handle h, cxobj *xe, struct client_entry *ce, cbuf *cbret, void *arg)` has been changed to : `int cb(clicon_handle h, cxobj *xe, struct client_entry *ce, cbuf *cbret, void *arg)`
* Frontend netconf and restconf plugins can register callbacks as well with same API as backends.
* 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)
* Backend startup modes prior to 3.3.3. As enabled with `configure --with-startup-compat`. Configure option CLICON_USE_STARTUP_CONFIG is also obsoleted.
* Configuration files (non-XML) prior to 3.3.3. As enabled with `configure --with-config-compat`. The template clicon.conf.cpp files are also removed.
* Clixon XML C-lib prior to 3.4.0. As enabled with `configure --with-xml-compat`
