YANG packager
#
Introduction
YANG packager is a simple program which is part of the UniConfig distribution. User can finds it in the utils/ directory after building and unpacking the UniConfig distribution. User can use it by simple shell script called 'convertYangsToUniconfigSchema.sh'. YANG packager is responsible for:
- validation of user-provided YANG files
- copying valid YANG files to the user-defined directory
- informing the user about conversion process
#
Usage
Script ./convertYangsToUniconfigSchema
contains four arguments. Each one has its own identifier so user can use any order of arguments.
Two arguments are required, namely the path to resources that contain YANG files and the path to the output directory
where user wants to copy all valid YANG files. Other three arguments are optional. First one is the path to the
"default" directory which contains some default YANG files, second one is the path to the "skip-list" and last one is
a "-to-file" flag, which user can use when he wants to write a debug output to file.
-i /path/to/sources
- required argument. User has two options for where the path can be directed:- to the directory that contains YANG files and other sub-directories with YANG files
- to the text-file that contains defined names of directories. These defined directories have to be stored on the same path as text-file.
-o /path/to/output-directory
- required argument. User can define path where he wants to save valid YANG files. If the output directory exists, it will be replaced by a new one.-d /path/to/default
- optional argument. Sometimes some YANG files need additional dependencies that are not provided in source directories. In this case it is possible to use path to the 'default' directory which contains additional YANG files. If there is this missing YANG file, YANG packager will use it.-s /path/to/skip-list
- optional argument. User can define YANG file names in text file that he does not want to include in conversion process. This file must only contain module names without revision and .yang suffix.-to-file
- optional argument. When user uses this flag, then YANG packager also saves the debug output to a file. This file can be found on a same path as output-directory. It will contain suffix '-info' in its name. If the output directory is called 'output-directory', then the file will be called 'output-directory-info'.-g
- optional argument. Path to directory where generated Java sources with constants from YANG elements are saved. By default, generation of Java files is disabled.-pn
- optional argument. Custom package name of generated classes.-px
- optional argument. Flag that enables prefix for generated constants names inside generated classes.-jd
- optional argument. Flag that enables to generate java documentation on data elements.-r
- optional argument. Selection of repositories inside source directory with files or file with defined names of directories which contains files, from which constants will be generated.-enableSwagger
- optional argument. Path to file that enables OpenAPI generation.
Bash script ./convertYangsToUniconfigSchema
also includes simple help facility. There are two options how to show the help text:
./convertYangsToUniconfigSchema -h
./convertYangsToUniconfigSchema --help
The user is responsible for the validity of YANG files in the default directory. These files are not checked by YANG package.
If compilation process detected some invalid YANG files then output directory will not be created. In this case, user has to fix invalid YANG files or use a combination of "-d" and "-s" arguments.
#
Example use-case
#
Basic usage 1
This is basic usage of the script where only mandatory arguments are used. In this case, there is a directory with YANG files used as source. All files in source directory are valid YANG files. Open a terminal, go to the ../utils directory and run command:
./convertYangsToUniconfigSchema -i /path/to/source-directory -o /path/to/output
--------------- SOURCE DIRECTORY ---------------
/path/to/source-directory
Number of source files: 593
Number of valid files: 593
Number of invalid files: 0
Number of non-yang files: 0
#
Basic usage 2
This is basic usage of the script where only mandatory arguments are used. In this case, there is directory with YANG files used as source. Source directory also contains one invalid YANG file with missing import. Open a terminal, go to the ../utils directory and run command:
./convertYangsToUniconfigSchema -i /path/to/source-directory -o /path/to/output
--------------- SOURCE DIRECTORY ---------------
/path/to/source-directory
---------------
Invalid files:
---------------
name: cisco-xr-openconfig-mpls-deviations@2016-05-16.yang
path: /path/to/source-directory/cisco-xr-openconfig-mpls-deviations@2016-05-16.yang
error: Missing imports: openconfig-mpls
Number of source files: 594
Number of valid files: 593
Number of invalid files: 1
Number of non-yang files: 0
Yang packager failed because:
- source directories contain some invalid files. Because of this reason nothing will be copied to destination directories
#
Basic usage 3
This is basic usage of the script where only mandatory arguments are used. In this case, there is directory with YANG files used as source. Source directory also contains one non-yang file. Open a terminal, go to the ../utils directory and run command:
./convertYangsToUniconfigSchema -i /path/to/source-directory -o /path/to/output
--------------- SOURCE DIRECTORY ---------------
/path/to/source-directory
---------------
Non-yang files:
---------------
name: test.sh
path: /path/to/source-directory/test.sh
error: Non Yang file
Number of source files: 594
Number of valid files: 593
Number of invalid files: 0
Number of non-yang files: 1
#
Usage with default directory
This is usage with path to default directory that contains one YANG file openconfig-mpls. Source directory also contains one invalid YANG file 'cisco-xr-openconfig-mpls-deviations.yang' with missing import 'openconfig-mpls'. This missing import is loaded from default directory. Open a terminal, go to the ../utils directory and run command:
./convertYangsToUniconfigSchema -i /path/to/source-directory -o /path/to/output -d /path/to/default
--------------- SOURCE DIRECTORY ---------------
/path/to/source-directory
Number of source files: 594
Number of valid files: 594
Number of invalid files: 0
Number of non-yang files: 0
Number of source files added from default source directory: 1
List of added sources: openconfig-mpls@2015-11-05.yang
#
Usage with skip-list
This is usage with path to skip-list text file that contains one YANG file name cisco-xr-openconfig-mpls-deviations. This YANG file will not be included in the conversion process. Open a terminal, go to the ../utils directory and run command:
./convertYangsToUniconfigSchema -i /path/to/source-directory -o /path/to/output -s /path/to/skip-list
cat /path/to/skip-list
cisco-xr-openconfig-mpls-deviations
--------------- SOURCE DIRECTORY ---------------
/path/to/source-directory
Number of source files: 593
Number of valid files: 593
Number of invalid files: 0
Number of non-yang files: 0
#
Usage with text-file as a source
In this example a path to text-file with defined names of source directories is used.
Open a terminal, go to the ../utils directory and run command:
./convertYangsToUniconfigSchema -i /path/to/text-file -o /path/to/output
cat /path/to/text-file
directory-1
directory-2
--------------- SOURCE DIRECTORY ---------------
/path/to/directory-1
Number of source files: 593
Number of valid files: 593
Number of invalid files: 0
Number of non-yang files: 0
--------------- SOURCE DIRECTORY ---------------
/path/to/directory-2
Number of source files: 515
Number of valid files: 515
Number of invalid files: 0
Number of non-yang files: 0
#
Usage with -to-file flag
This is usage where output is also printed to file. User can find output information file on the path /path/to/output-info.
Open a terminal, go to the ../utils directory and run command:
./convertYangsToUniconfigSchema -i /path/to/source-directory -o /path/to/output -d /path/to/default
--------------- SOURCE DIRECTORY ---------------
/path/to/source-directory
Number of source files: 593
Number of valid files: 593
Number of invalid files: 0
Number of non-yang files: 0
#
Usage with text-file as a source and -to-file flag
In this example a path to text-file with defined names of source directories is used and also flag for print outputs to files. User can find output information files on paths /path/to/output/directory-1-info and /path/to/output/directory-2-info
Open a terminal, go to the ../utils and run command:
./convertYangsToUniconfigSchema -i /path/to/text-file -o /path/to/output -to-file
Content of text-file
cat /path/to/text-file
directory-1
directory-2
--------------- SOURCE DIRECTORY ---------------
/path/to/directory-1
Number of source files: 593
Number of valid files: 593
Number of invalid files: 0
Number of non-yang files: 0
--------------- SOURCE DIRECTORY ---------------
/path/to/directory-2
Number of source files: 515
Number of valid files: 515
Number of invalid files: 0
Number of non-yang files: 0
#
Usage with '-enableSwagger' flag
In this example a path to a text-file with defined names of source directories is used. A flag to print outputs to files and a flag to enable swagger for OpenAPI files generation. The swagger configuration file is located at ../utils/config/swagger-config.json. Swagger output file / files are generated per directory, and they are located in the output directory. The user can find output information files on paths /path/to/output/directory-1-info and /path/to/output/directory-2-info.
Open a terminal, go to the ../utils directory. Run the command:
./convertYangsToUniconfigSchema -i /path/to/text-file -o /path/to/output -to-file -enableSwagger /path/to/config
Additional parameters are available for swagger generation that further customise the OpenAPI file / files. These parameters are located at the beginning of the page.
The output then looks like this:
--------------- SWAGGER OUTPUT ---------------
File name: file_name1.yaml - file path: absolute/path/to/file/file_name1.yaml
File name: file_name2.yaml - file path: absolute/path/to/file/file_name2.yaml
