Package com.tailf.maapi

Class Maapi

Object
com.tailf.maapi.Maapi
public class Maapi extends Object

This class implements the Management Agent API (MAAPI).

The purpose of the class is twofold:

  • MAAPI can be used to implement our own proprietary management agent.

  • We can also use Maapi to attach to already existing transactions, for example when we wish to implement semantic validation of data elements or implement a CLI wizard.

Example: 

 // int port = Conf.PORT for ConfD or Conf.NCS_PORT for NCS
 // Setup socket to server
 Socket s = new Socket("localhost", port);

 // Start MAAPI session for admin user, originating from localhost
 Maapi maapi = new Maapi(s);
 maapi.startUserSession("admin",
     InetAddress.getByName("localhost"),
     "maapi",
     new String[] { "admin" },
     MaapiUserSessionFlag.PROTO_TCP);

 // Start a read transaction towards the running configuration.
 int tid = maapi.startTrans(Conf.DB_RUNNING, Conf.MODE_READ);
 // Set the namespace for the upcoming data operations
 maapi.setNamespace(tid, "http://tail-f.com/test/mtest/1.0");
 // Read the maxLeaseTime setting in the running configuration.
 ConfObject r = maapi.getElem(tid, "/mtest/servers/server{www}/ip");
 // Done, the transaction and user session is automatically
 // ended when the socket is closed.
 s.close();

  • Constructor Details

    • Maapi

      public Maapi(Socket socket) throws IOException, ConfException
      Creates a new instance of Maapi supplying a established open socket to ConfD/NCS daemon. Since the ConfD/NCS daemon expects initialization within 5 seconds after a new socket is established this constructor should be called directly for a new socket. For instance: // int port = Conf.PORT for ConfD or Conf.NCS_PORT for NCS Maapi maapi = new Maapi(new Socket("localhost", port));

      When establishing a connection to ConfD/NCS the MaapiSchemas will be loaded once automatically by the library.

      If encrypted communication towards ConfD/NCS is desired, an environment variable "CONFD_IPC_ACCESS_FILE" or "NCS_IPC_ACCESS_FILE" need to be set. This variable is expected to point to a file containing a secret salt. example: export CONFD_IPC_ACCESS_FILE=./secret_file.txt An alternative to the environment variable is to set an java system property with the same name pointing to the file.

      Parameters:
      socket - A socket connected to ConfD/NCS.
      Throws:
      ConfException - If ConfD/NCS refuses to establish connection the reason could be obtained through Throwable.getMessage()
      IOException - signals I/O exception on the underlying socket

  • Method Details

      public String toString()
      Overrides:

    • getNsList

      public ArrayList<ConfNamespace> getNsList()
      Get a list of the installed namespaces retrieved from the loaded MaapiSchemas. The underlying socket is not required to be open for this operation.
      Returns:
      list of namespaces

    • startUserSession

      public void startUserSession(String user, InetAddress srcip, String context, String[] groups, MaapiUserSessionFlag proto) throws IOException, ConfException
      Establish a new user session on this Maapi instance.

      Once we have created a Maapi communication instance, we must also establish a user session.

      It is up to the user of the Maapi class to authenticate users.

      Maapi can be used to to perform the actual authentication through a call to authenticate(String,String) but authentication may very well occur through some other external means.

      Thus, when we use this function to create a user session, we must provide all relevant information about the user. If we wish to execute read/write transactions over the MAAPI interface, we must first have an established user session.

      A user session corresponds to a NETCONF manager who has just established an authenticated SSH connection, but not yet sent any NETCONF commands on the SSH connection.

      The user string is the login name of the user. The user name is used when setting up the AAA environment for the session.

      The srcip address specifies from where did the session originate.

      The context parameter can be any string which is precisely the context string which will be used to authorize all data access through the AAA system. Each AAA rule has a context string which must match in order for a AAA rule to match. (See the AAA chapter in the User Guide).

      Using the string "system" for context has special significance:

      • The session is exempt from all max sessions limits in the configuration file.
      • There will be no authorization checks done by the AAA system.
      • The session is not logged in the audit log.
      • The session is not shown in 'confd --status' or 'ncs --status', nor 'show users' in CLI etc.
      • The session may be started already in start phase 0. (However read-write transactions can not be started until phase 1)
      Thus this can be useful e.g. when we need to create the user session for an "internal" transaction done by an application, without relation to a session from a northbound agent. Of course the implications of the above need to be carefully considered in each case.

      It is not possible to create new user sessions until the system has reached start phase 2 with the above exception of a session with the context set to "system".

      The photo parameter specifies the protocol used by the user for connecting to the device. Can be one of MaapiUserSessionFlag.PROTO_SSH, MaapiUserSessionFlag.PROTO_CONSOLE, MaapiUserSessionFlag.PROTO_TCP, and MaapiUserSessionFlag.PROTO_SSL

      Parameters:
      user - Login name of user
      srcip - Source ip where the user session originate
      context - The context string parameter stated discussed above.
      groups - An array of AAA groups that the user belongs to.
      proto - Protocol used by the user for connecting to the device..
      Throws:
      MaapiException - If ConfD/NCS could not create a new session based on the parameters. To get detailed message use Throwable.getMessage()
      IOException - signals I/O exception on the underlying socket
      ConfException

      token - The token to validate
      srcAddr - source address
      srcPort - source port
      context - context
      proto - extra information passed to the token validation executable (see /confdConfig/aaa/externalValidation/includeExtra)
      Throws:
      ConfException
      IOException

    • startTrans

      public int startTrans(int dbname, int mode) throws IOException, ConfException
      Start a new transaction towards the specified database dbname with a transaction mode mode.

      The main purpose of MAAPI is to provide read and write access into the transaction manager. Regardless of whether data is kept in CDB or in some* (or several) external data bases, the same API is used to access data.

      ConfD/NCS acts as a mediator and multiplexes the different commands to the code which is responsible for each individual data element.

      This function creates a new transaction towards a specified data base. If successful, it returns a new transaction identifier, a tid which must be used as a parameter in most of the Maapi methods which manipulate the transaction.

      We will drive this transaction forward through the different states a transaction goes through. If an external database is used, and it has registered callback functions for the different transaction states, those callbacks will be called when we in MAAPI invoke the different MAAPI transaction manipulation functions. For example when we call startTrans the init callback will be invoked in all external databases. If data is kept in CDB, the system will handle everything internally.

      The parameter dbname is supplied using on of Conf.DB_STARTUP,Conf.DB_RUNNING,Conf.DB_CANDIDATE

      Transaction mode mode is supplied using Conf.MODE_READ, to start a read only transaction Conf.MODE_READ_WRITE to start a read write transaction.

      A read only transaction will incur less resource usage, thus if no writes will be done (e.g. the purpose of the transaction is only to read operational data), it is best to use Conf.MODE_READ.

      There are also some cases where starting a read-write transaction is not allowed, e.g. if we start a transaction towards the running data store is set to "writable-through-candidate" in confd.conf/ncs.conf, or if ConfD/NCS is running in HA secondary mode.

      Parameters:
      dbname - Database that the transaction should operate on.
      mode - Read or write mode.
      Throws:
      MaapiException - If the transaction could not be started see the Throwable.getMessage()
      IOException - Signals I/O exception on the underlying socket
      ConfException

    • startTrans

      public int startTrans(int dbname, int mode, String vendor, String product, String version, String clientId) throws IOException, ConfException
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • startTrans2

      public int startTrans2(int dbname, int mode, int usid) throws IOException, ConfException
      Start a new transaction towards database within an existing user session specified by usid.

      If we want to start new transactions inside actions, we can use this function to execute the new transaction within the existing user session.

      See startTrans(int,int) for available options on dbname and mode mode.

      Parameters:
      dbname - Database that the transaction should operate on
      mode - Read or write mode
      usid - The user session id
      Throws:
      MaapiException - If the transaction could not be started see the Throwable.getMessage()
      IOException - Signals I/O exception on the underlying socket
      ConfException

    • startTransFlags

      public int startTransFlags(int dbname, int mode, int usid, EnumSet<MaapiFlag> flags) throws IOException, ConfException
      Start a new transaction towards the specified database dbname with a transaction mode mode with additional flags to control read/write sessions.

      This method makes it possible to provide flags that can otherwise be used with setFlags(int,EnumSet) already when starting a transaction, as well as setting the MaapiFlag.HIDE_INACTIVE flag that can only be used with this function. Otherwise its has functionality equivalent to Maapi.startTrans2().

      Parameters:
      dbname - Database that the transaction should operate on. Possible values are STARTUP, RUNNING, CANDIDATE
      mode - Read or write mode. Possible values are READ and READ_WRITE
      usid - User session id
      flags - EnumSet of MaapiFlag values.
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • startTransInTrans

      public int startTransInTrans(int mode, int usid, int tid) throws IOException, ConfException
      Start a new transaction within an existing user session and another transaction as backend
      Parameters:
      mode - Read or write mode. Possible values are READ and READ_WRITE
      usid - User session id
      tid - Backend transaction id
      Throws:
      MaapiException
      IOException
      ConfException

    • finishTrans

      public void finishTrans(int tid) throws IOException, ConfException
      Finish the transaction specified by transaction handle tid.

      If the transaction is implemented by an external database, this will invoke the finish callback.

      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction id of transaction to terminate.
      Throws:
      MaapiException
      IOException
      ConfException

    • attach

      public void attach(int tid, int nsi, int usid) throws IOException, ConfException
      Attach to a current transaction.

      While a transaction is executing, we have a number of situations where we wish to invoke user Java code which can interact in the transaction. One such situation is when we wish to write semantic validation code which is invoked in the validation phase of a transaction.

      This code needs to execute within the context of the executing transaction, it must thus have access to the "shadow" storage where all not-yet-committed data is kept.

      This method attaches to a existing transaction. See user guide chapter "Semantic Validation" for example code.

      Another situation where we wish to attach to the executing transaction is when we are using the notifications API and subscribe to notification of type NOTIF_COMMIT_DIFF and wish to read the committed diffs from the transaction.

      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction identifier
      nsi - Namespace identifier. Use 0 if we don't care which namespace is the default to choose if path elements are not properly prefixed.
      usid - Usid
      Throws:
      MaapiException
      IOException
      ConfException

    • attach

      public void attach(int tid, int nsi) throws IOException, ConfException
      Same as attach(int, int, int) with the exception that the User session id is implicit for the attached transaction.
      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction identifier
      nsi - Namespace identifier. Use 0 if we don't care which namespace is the default to choose if path elements are not properly prefixed.
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • attach

      public void attach(int tid, String ns, int usid) throws IOException, ConfException
      Attach to a current transaction.

      While a transaction is executing, we have a number of situations where we wish to invoke user Java code which can interact in the transaction. One such situation is when we wish to write semantic validation code which is invoked in the validation phase of a transaction.

      This code needs to execute within the context of the executing transaction, it must thus have access to the "shadow" storage where all not-yet-committed data is kept.

      This method attaches to a existing transaction. See user guide chapter "Semantic Validation" for example code.

      Another situation where we wish to attach to the executing transaction is when we are using the notifications API and subscribe to notification of type NOTIF_COMMIT_DIFF and wish to read the committed diffs from the transaction.

      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction identifier
      ns - Namespace identifier
      usid - Usid
      Throws:
      MaapiException
      IOException
      ConfException

    • attach

      public void attach(int tid, String ns) throws IOException, ConfException
      Same as attach(int, String, int) with the exception that the User session id is implicit for the attached transaction.
      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction identifier
      ns - Namespace identifier
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • attachInit

      public int attachInit() throws IOException, ConfException
      Attach to transaction available in phase0.

      This method is used to attach the Maapi socket to the special transaction available in phase0 used for CDB initialization and upgrade.

      Returns:
      the transaction handle for the init transaction
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • detach

      public void detach(int tid) throws IOException, ConfException
      Detaches an attached MAAPI socket. This method is typically called in the finish phase in validation code. An attached MAAPI socket will be automatically detached when the transaction terminates. This method performs an explicit detach.
      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction Identifier
      Throws:
      MaapiException
      IOException
      ConfException

    • applyTrans

      public void applyTrans(int tid, boolean keepOpen) throws IOException, ConfException
      Apply a current transaction with transaction handle tid.

      Invoking the transaction methods in exactly the right order can be a bit complicated.

      The right order to invoke the methods is:

      Usually we do not require this fine grained control over the two-phase commit protocol. It is easier to use applyTrans which validates, prepares and eventually aborts or commits.

      A call to applyTrans must also eventually be followed by a call to finishTrans(int) which will terminate the transaction. For a readonly transaction, i.e. one started with Conf.MODE_READ, or for a read-write transaction where we haven't actually done any writes, we do not need to call any of the validate/prepare/commit/abort or apply methods, since there is nothing for them to do. Calling finishTrans to terminate the transaction is sufficient.

      The parameter keepopen can optionally be set to true, then the changes to the transaction are not discarded if validation fails. This feature is typically used by management applications that wish to present the validation errors to an operator and allow the operator to fix the validation errors and then later retry the apply sequence.

      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction id of transaction to commit
      keepOpen - If validation fails should the transaction be kept open or not
      Throws:
      ConfException - If the transaction is in badstate, for example if applyTrans is called twice.
      IOException

    • applyTrans

      public void applyTrans(int tid, boolean keepOpen, int flags) throws IOException, ConfException
      Apply a current transaction with transaction handle tid with additional flags (NCS Specific).

      Some NCS specific flags can be used:

      COMMIT_NCS_NO_REVISION_DROP means that NCS will not run its data model revision algorithm, thus requiring all participating managed devices to have all parts of the data models for all data contained in this transaction, i.e., this flag forces NCS to never silently drop any data set operations towards a device.

      COMMIT_NCS_NO_DEPLOY means that NCS will commit without running the FASTMAP algorithm, i.e, write the service instance data without activating the service(s). The service(s) can later be re-deployed to write the changes of the service(s) to the network.

      COMMIT_NCS_NO_NETWORKING means that the NCS device manager will not see these changes. Even if transaction manipulates data below /devices/device/config, nothing will be sent to the managed devices. Thus this is a way to manipulate CDB in NCS without generating any southbound traffic.

      COMMIT_NCS_NO_OUT_OF_SYNC_CHECK means that NCS will continue with the transaction even if NCS detects that a device's configuration is out of sync. The device's sync state is assumed to be unknown after such commit and the stored transaction id value is cleared.

      COMMIT_NCS_NO_OVERWRITE means that NCS will check that the data that should be modified has not changed on the device compared to NCS's view of the data. This is fine-granular sync check; NCS verifies that NCS and the device is in sync regarding the data that will be modified. If they are not in sync, the transaction is aborted.

      COMMIT_NCS_ASYNC_COMMIT_QUEUE means that if some device is non-operational or has data waiting in the commit queue, the data in this transaction will be placed in the queue. If this flag is set and the function returns ok, the function commitQueueResult() must be called. commitQueueResult() will return the commit queue id for the transaction, if any device was involved in the commit.

      COMMIT_NCS_SYNC_COMMIT_QUEUE means that if some device is non-operational or has data waiting in the commit queue, the data in this transaction will be placed in the queue. If this flag is set and the function returns ok, the function commitQueueResult() must be called. commitQueueResult() will wait for the transaction to be committed to the devices, if any device was involved in the commit.

      COMMIT_NCS_BYPASS_COMMIT_QUEUE means that if /devices/commit-queue/enabled-by-default is 'true' the data in this transaction will bypass the commit queue. The data will be written directly to the devices.

      COMMIT_NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_LOCK means that NCS will place a lock on the resulting queue item. The queue item will not be processed until it has been unlocked, see the actions 'unlock' and 'lock' in /devices/commit-queue/queue-item'. No following queue items, using the same devices, will be allowed to execute as long as the lock is in place.

      COMMIT_NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_BLOCK_OTHERS means that the resulting queue item will block subsequent queue items, which use any of the devices in this queue item, from being queued.

      COMMIT_NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_ATOMIC means that the atomic behaviour of the resulting queue item is preserved.

      COMMIT_NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_NONATOMIC means that the devices contained in the resulting queue item can start executing if the same devices in other non-atomic queue items ahead of it in the queue are completed.

      COMMIT_NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_CONTINUE_ON_ERROR means that the commit queue will continue on errors. No rollback data will be created. This is the preferred choice when re-deploying a service as a re-deploy doesn't have a transaction intent.

      COMMIT_NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_ROLLBACK_ON_ERROR means that the commit queue item will roll back on errors. The commit queue will place a lock with 'block-others' on the devices and services in the failed queue item. The rollback action will then automatically be invoked when the queue item has finished its execution. The lock will be removed as part of the rollback.

      COMMIT_NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_STOP_ON_ERROR means that the commit queue will place a lock with 'block-others' on the devices and services in the failed queue item. The lock must then either manually be released or the rollback action under /devices/commit-queue/completed be invoked.

      COMMIT_NCS_USE_LSA means that NCS will force handling LSA nodes as such.

      COMMIT_NCS_NO_LSA means that NCS will not handle any of the LSA nodes as such. These nodes will be handled as any other device.

      COMMIT_NCS_RECONCILE_KEEP_NON_SERVICE_CONFIG means that all data which existed before the service was created will now be owned by the service. When the service is removed that data will also be removed. In technical terms the reference count will be decreased by one for everything which existed. Note that this flag has no effect on initial service creation. Any manually configured data that exists below in the configuration tree will be kept.

      COMMIT_NCS_RECONCILE_DISCARD_NON_SERVICE_CONFIG means that all data which existed before the service was created will now be owned by the service. When the service is removed that data will also be removed. In technical terms the reference count will be decreased by one for everything which existed. Note that this flag has no effect on initial service creation. Any manually configured data that exists below in the configuration tree will be discarded.

      The flags are bits and can be ORed together.

      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction id of transaction to commit
      keepOpen - If validation fails should the transaction be kept open or not
      flags - Bitwise ORed flags
      Throws:
      MaapiException

      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction id of transaction to get commit parameters for
      Returns:
      the commit parameters
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • commitQueueResult

      @Deprecated public CommitQueueResult commitQueueResult(int tid, int timeout) throws IOException, ConfException
      Deprecated.
      Use applyTransParams(int, boolean, CommitParams) instead. This method must be called if applyTrans() or prepareTrans() was called, and one of the flags COMMIT_NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_ASYNC or COMMIT_NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_SYNC was set, and must not be called otherwise. If the transaction did not result in a commit queue entry (e.g., it didn't involve any devices) the function returns a CommitQueueResult with its status set to NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_NONE. Otherwise, if COMMIT_NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_ASYNC was set, the function returns a CommitQueueResult with its status set to NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_ASYNC, and its queue_id set to the commit queue id. Otherwise, if COMMIT_NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_SYNC was set, the function waits at most timeout seconds for the commit queue item to be sent to the devices. If the result was successful, it returns a CommitQueueResult with its status set to NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_SYNC. If the timer expires, it returns a CommitQueueResult with its status set to NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_TIMEOUT, and its queue_id set to the commit queue id. If the result was unsuccessful, an exception is raised. If any of the devices in the queue item returns an error the status is set to NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_FAILED. If the queue item is deleted before execution the status is set to NCS_COMMIT_QUEUE_DELETED.
      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction id of committed transaction
      timeout - Timeout in seconds. -1 means infinity. Only applicable if the sync flag was set.
      Throws:
      ConfException
      IOException

    • getRollbackId

      public int getRollbackId(int tid) throws IOException, ConfException
      Get rollback id for committed transaction specified by transaction handle tid.

      This methods returns the fixed rollback id of the rollback file created during commit of the transaction. If rollbacks are disabled or no rollback was created this returns -1.

      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction Identifier
      Throws:
      MaapiException
      IOException
      ConfException

    • validateTrans

      public void validateTrans(int tid, boolean unlock, boolean force) throws IOException, ConfException
      Validates a transaction specified by transaction handle tid

      This method validates all data written in the transaction. This includes all XML checks, checking for uniqueness and dangling pointers. It also includes all defined semantic validation, i.e. user programs that have registered functions under validation points. (See user manual chapter Semantic Validation).

      If this method throws an exception due to a validation error, the transaction is still open for further editing. If unlock is true, the transaction is open for further editing even if validation succeeds. If unlock is false and the method returns, the next method to be called MUST be prepareTrans(int) or finishTrans(int).

      unlock = true can be used to implement a 'validate' command which can be given in the middle of an editing session. The first thing that happens is that a lock is set. If unlock = true, the lock is released on success. The lock is always released on failure. The force parameter should normally be false. It has no effect for a transaction towards the running or startup data stores, validation is always performed. For a transaction towards the candidate data store, validation will not be done unless force true. Avoiding this validation is preferable if we are going to commit the candidate to running e.g with candidateCommit(), since otherwise the validation will be done twice. However if we are implementing a 'validate' command, we should set force = true

      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction Identifier
      unlock - if true the transaction is open for further editing
      force - if true validation will performed also for candidate data store
      Throws:
      MaapiException
      IOException
      ConfException

    • prepareTrans

      public void prepareTrans(int tid) throws IOException, ConfException

      It will invoke the prepare callback in all participants in the transaction. If all participants reply with OK, the second phase of the two-phase commit procedure is commenced.

      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction Identifier
      Throws:
      MaapiException
      IOException
      ConfException

    • prepareTrans

    • diffIterate

      public void diffIterate(int tid, MaapiDiffIterate iter) throws IOException, ConfException
      Iterates through the transaction diff.

      For all diffs in the transaction the supplied MaapiDiffIterate.iterate(ConfObject[],DiffIterateOperFlag, ConfObject,ConfObject,Object) (callback) method will be called.

      This method can be called from an attached MAAPI session. The purpose of the function is to iterate through the transaction diff. It can typically be used in conjunction with the notification API when we subscribe to NOTIF_COMMIT_DIFF events.

      For all diffs in the transaction the supplied callback function iterate will be called. The iterate callback receives the keypath which uniquely identifies which element in the XML tree that is affected, the operation, and an optional value.

      iterate is called for each modified list entry, and for each modified leaf node. If the node is a list entry, op is one of MOP_CREATED, MOP_DELETED or MOP_MODIFIED If the node is a leaf node, op is one of MOP_DELETED or MOP_VALUE_SET.

      If iterate returns ITER_STOP, no more iteration is done. If iterate returns ITER_RECURSE iteration continues with all children to the node. If iterate returns ITER_CONTINUE iteration ignores the children to the node (if any), and continues with the node's sibling.

      The different commit messages are not subjected to AAA checks, i.e. regardless of which path we have and which context was used to create the MAAPI socket, all changed values are sent on the socket.

      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction handle
      iter - A MaapiDiffIterate object

      public void cd(int tid, String fmt, Object... arguments) throws ConfException, IOException
      This function mimics the behavior of the UNIX "cd" command. It changes our working position in the XML tree. If we are worried about performance, it is more efficient to invoke cd() to some position in the XML tree and there perform a series of operations using relative paths than it is to perform the equivalent series of operations using absolute paths.

      The cd() function is also very useful when writing generic code for accessing parts of the configuration tree.

    • getObject

      public ConfObject[] getObject(int tid, String fmt, Object... arguments) throws IOException, ConfException
      This reads a container object or a list entry object from the path in fmt and returns the result. The path must lead to a a list entry or a container element in the XML data tree. The return value is an array of ConfObjects that describe the entire structure. All plain values in the structure, such as strings, ints ip addresses are represented as ConfValue instances. If the structure contains containers, they are represented as ConfTag instances. Finally, optional leafs and containers in the structure that are missing are represented as ConfTypeDescriptor instances with type set to ConfObject.J_NOEXISTS.
      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction Identifier
      fmt - path string
      arguments - optional parameters for substitution in fmt
      Returns:
      An array of ConfObject which describes the object.

      Set arbitrary sub-elements of a container element in one bulk operation from NCS FastMap code. Everything that is set or created with this method, also get's an additional attribute set, called 'Backpointer' which points back to the service instance that created the entity in the first place. This makes it possible to look at the /devices tree and answer the question which parts of the device configurtaion was created by which service(es).

    • getValues

      public <T extends List<ConfXMLParam>> T getValues(int tid, T params, String fmt, Object... arguments) throws IOException, ConfException
      Read an arbitrary set of sub-elements of a container element.

      The params list must be pre-populated based on the specification of the ConfXMLParam array structure format. Where ConfXMLParamValue value element set by ConfXMLParamValue.setValue(ConfObject) method is given as follow:

      • ConfNoExists means that the value should be read from the transaction and stored in the array.
      • ConfXMLParamStart,ConfXMLParamStop are used as per the specification.
      • Keys to select list entries can be given with their values.

      All elements have the same position in the array after the call, In order to simplify extraction of the values - this means that optional elements that were requested but didn't exist will have ConfNoExists (as a the ConfXMLParam.getValue() return value in the corresponding position in a ConfXMLParamValue) rather than being omitted from the array. However requesting a list entry that doesn't exist will throw a exception indicating that the instance does not exits.

      Type Parameters:
      T - the type list holding the structure
      Parameters:
      tid - transaction handle
      arguments - optional parameter for substitution in fmt
      params - pre-populated structure of the elements to be extracted
      Throws:
      MaapiException - If the the call failed for some reason see the Throwable.getMessage() for details.

    • newCursor

      public MaapiCursor newCursor(int tid, String fmt, Object... arguments) throws IOException, ConfException

      Creates a cursor for a list specified by fmt.

      The MaapiCursor is used to iterate over the keys of a list.

      When we wish to iterate over key entries we must first create a cursor.

      The cursor instance is subsequently used in getNext(MaapiCursor) to retrieve the next key instance in the list. When the cursor retrieves null the whole list has been iterated.

      An exhausted cursor cannot be reset.

      For example, if we have the following YANG model:

      
 module mtest {
   namespace "http://tail-f.com/test/mtest/1.0";
   prefix mtest;

   import ietf-inet-types {
     prefix inet;
   }

   container servers {
     list server {
       key name;
       max-elements 64;
       leaf name {
         type string;
       }
       leaf ip {
         type inet:ip-address;
         mandatory true;
       }
       leaf port {
         type inet:port-number;
         mandatory true;
       }
     }
   }
 }

      Example usage: 

      
 MaapiCursor c = maapi.newCursor(tid, "/mtest:mtest/servers/server");
 ConfKey x;

 while ((x = maapi.getNext(c)) != null) {
    ConfValue nameValue =
        maapi.getElem(tid, "/mtest:mtest/servers/server{%x}/name", x);
    ConfValue ipValue =
        maapi.getElem(tid, "/mtest:mtest/servers/server{%x}/ip", x);
    ConfValue portValue =
        maapi.getElem(tid, "/mtest:mtest/servers/server{%x}/port",x);
 }
      Parameters:
      tid - current transaction id
      fmt - path of the list to be iterated
      arguments - optional parameters for substitution in fmt
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • newCursor

      public MaapiCursor newCursor(int tid, ConfPath path) throws IOException, ConfException

      Creates a cursor for a list specified by path

      The MaapiCursor is used to iterate over the keys of a list.

      When we wish to iterate over key entries we must first create a cursor.

      The cursor instance is subsequently used in getNext(MaapiCursor) to retrieve the next key instance in the list. When the cursor retrieves null the whole list has been iterated and the cursor can not be reset.

      Parameters:
      tid - current transaction id
      path - path of the list to be iterated
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • newCursorWithFilter

      public MaapiCursor newCursorWithFilter(int tid, String filter, String fmt, Object... arguments) throws IOException, ConfException

      Creates a cursor for a list specified by fmt with an XPath filter specified by filter.

      The MaapiCursor is used to iterate over the keys a list.

      When we wish to iterate over key entries we must first create a cursor.

      The cursor instance is subsequently used in getNext(MaapiCursor) to retrieve the next key instance in the list. When the cursor retrieves null the whole list has been iterated and the cursor can not be reset.

      If filter is not null, only keys of elements matching the filter will be included in the iteration. If filter is null, this method behaves just as newCursor(int, String, Object...)

      Given the same example model as in newCursor(int, String, Object...) one could iterate over servers on the 10.x.x.x network with port numbers above 8000 using the following cursor call: 

      
 MaapiCursor c =
     maapi.newCursorWithFilter(tid,
                               "starts-with(ip, \"10.\") and port > 8000",
                               "/mtest:mtest/servers/server");
      Parameters:
      tid - current transaction id
      filter - XPath filter for filtering the list
      fmt - path of the list to be iterated
      arguments - optional parameters for substitution in fmt
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • newCursorWithFilter

      public MaapiCursor newCursorWithFilter(int tid, String filter, ConfPath path) throws IOException, ConfException

      Creates a cursor for a list specified by path with an XPath filter specified by filter.

      The MaapiCursor is used to iterate over the keys of a list.

      When we wish to iterate over key entries we must first create a cursor.

      The cursor instance is subsequently used in getNext(MaapiCursor) to retrieve the next key instance in the list. When the cursor retrieves null the whole list has been iterated and the cursor can not be reset.

      If filter is not null, only keys of elements matching the filter will be included in the iteration. If filter is null, this method behaves just as newCursor(int, ConfPath)

      Parameters:
      tid - current transaction id
      filter - XPath filter for filtering the list
      path - path of the list to be iterated
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • getNext

      public ConfKey getNext(MaapiCursor c) throws IOException, ConfException
      Iterates and gets the keys for the next element pinpointed by the MaapiCursor initially retrieved by newCursor(int, String, Object...). With the key(s) it is possible to navigate further down the model.

      For example, to read the port element from the 'server' example model, we would do: 

      
 MaapiCursor c = maapi.newCursor(tid,
                                 "/mtest:mtest/servers/server");
 ConfKey x = maapi.getNext(c);
 while (x != null) {
     ConfObject p;
     p = maapi.getElem(tid,
                       "/mtest:mtest/servers/server{%x}/port", x);
     // ....
     x = maapi.getNext(c);
 }
      Parameters:
      c - MaapiCursor
      Returns:
      ConfKey for the retrieved element
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • findNext

      public ConfKey findNext(MaapiCursor c, ConfFindNextType type, ConfKey key) throws IOException, ConfException
      The findNext method makes it possible to jump forward to an element in the model at a position defined by the MaapiCursor After the findNext call the same MaapiCursor can be used in subsequent getNext calls.
      Parameters:
      c - MaapiCursor for path
      type - ConfFindNextType if same element as key or element after key should be retrieved
      key - ConfKey for the searched element
      Returns:
      ConfKey for the retrieved element or null if not found
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • getObjects

      public List<ConfObject[]> getObjects(MaapiCursor c, int numOfObjects, int numOfInstances) throws IOException, ConfException
      Get several list instances with one request. A prerequisite is that a MaapiCursor must have been initialized for the list and supplied as an argument to this call. For each list instance the argument numOfObjects controls the maximum number of elements that will be retrieved. The objects are added in schema order. The numOfInstances argument controls the maximum number of list instances that should be retrived. If the list is empty or the cursor have already iterated through all list instances then the returned list will be empty.
      Parameters:
      c - MaapiCursor on current list
      numOfObjects - Number of object retrieved from a list instance
      numOfInstances - Number of list instances retrieved in this call
      Returns:
      List<ConfObject[]> containing list instances.
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • create

      public void create(int tid, ConfPath path) throws IOException, ConfException
      Create an entity in the XML tree. Things that can be created are liste entries, presence containers and leaves with type empty. 
       maapi.create(tid, "/servers/server{www}");
      If we are creating a new server element as above, we must also populate all other XML elements below which do not have a default value in the YANG model. Thus, assuming 'port' is mandatory we must also: 
       maapi.setElem(tid, "80",
               "/servers/server{www}/port");
      before we try to commit the data.
      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction Identifier
      path -

    • sharedCreate

      public void sharedCreate(int tid, ConfPath path) throws IOException, ConfException
      This is the variant of create() to use from FASTMAP code. I.e NCS code that creates NCS services. The sharedCreate() method is used by NCS service code to create data in the /devices/device tree which is shared by multiple NCS servcie instances. Everything that is created, gets a reference counter associated to it, this is so that the FASTMAP algorithm shall not delete data that is still used by other service instances. Furthermore, everything that is created with this method, also get's an additional attribute set, called 'Backpointer' which points back to the service instance that created the entity in the first place. This makes it possible to look at the /devices tree and answer the question which parts of the device configurtaion was created by which service(es)

      public void moveOrdered(int tid, MoveWhereFlag where, ConfKey tokey, String fmt, Object... arguments) throws IOException, ConfException
      For a list with the YANG ordered-by user statement, this function can be used to change the order of entries, by moving one entry to a new position. When new entries in such a list are created with Maapi.create(), they are always placed last in the list. The path given by fmt and the remaining arguments identifies the entry to move, and the new position is given by the where argument: MoveWhereFlag.MOVE_FIRST Move the entry first in the list. The tokey arguments is ignored, and can be given as NULL. MoveWhereFlag.MOVE_LAST Move the entry last in the list. The tokey arguments is ignored, and can be given as NULL. MoveWhereFlag.MOVE_BEFORE Move the entry to the position before the entry given by the tokey argument. MoveWhereFlag.MOVE_AFTER Move the entry to the position after the entry given by the tokey argument.
      Parameters:
      tid - current transaction
      where - MoveWhereFlag movement flag
      tokey - key as base for relative movements
      fmt - path string

    • getCase

      public ConfTag getCase(int tid, String choice, String fmt, Object... arguments) throws IOException, ConfException
      This returns the current 'case' for a 'choice' construct.

      When we use the YANG choice statement in the data model, this method can be used to find the currently selected case, avoiding useless getElem() etc requests for nodes that belong to other cases. The fmt arguments give the path to the list entry or container where the choice is defined, and choice is the name of the choice.The case value is returned as ConfTag.

      For a choice without a mandatory true statement where no case is currently selected, the function will fail with ERR_NOEXISTS if the choice doesn't have a default case. If it has a default case, it will be returned unless the MaapiFlag.NO_DEFAULTS flag is in effect @see MaapiFlag if the flag is set, the value returned will have type ConfTagDefault.

      NOTE: The method will suppress all ERR_NOEXISTS errors this means that the method will not throw exception when ERR_NOEXISTS occurs it will print a warning message and return null.

      Parameters:
      tid - current transaction handle
      choice - name of the choice
      fmt - path string to the container or list where the choice is defined
      arguments - optional parameters for substitution in fmt
      Returns:
      ConfTag representing the current selected case or null if the case could not be determine. If NO_DEFAULTS flag is used and the default case is selected, then ConfTagDefault instance is returned.
      Throws:
      MaapiException

    • lock

      public void lock(int db) throws IOException, ConfException
      This function is used to take a lock on one of the databases.

      Only one entity may own the lock at any given time.

      You do not have to acquire the lock before you read or write to a transaction.

      This lock is also taken by the CLI when the user enters exclusive mode. Depending on the configuration different locks will be taken, ie, if the system has been configured to have a candidate, and a writable running configuration then both a lock on running and a lock on the candidate database will be acquired.

      The following locks are acquired when you enter configure exclusive mode in the CLI:

      If the system is configured with a startup db, and no writable running or candidate: lock startup

      If the system is configured with a writable running and no startup or candidate db: lock running

      If the system is configured with a writable running and a startup db, and no candidate: lock running and startup.

      If the system is configured with a writable running and a candidate db, and no startup: lock running and candidate.

      This method can be used to start or extend a persistent confirmed commit, see the Tail-f Commit Capability section in the NETCONF Server chapter in the User Guide.

      The persist parameter sets the cookie for the persistent confirmed commit, while the persistId gives the cookie for an already ongoing persistent confirmed commit. This gives the following possibilities:

      • persist = "cookie", persistId = null Start a persistent confirmed commit with the cookie "cookie", or extend an already ongoing non-persistent confirmed commit and turn it into a persistent confirmed commit.

      • persist = "newcookie", persistId = "oldcookie" Extend an ongoing persistent confirmed commit that uses the cookie "oldcookie" and change the cookie to "newcookie".

      • persist = null, persistId = "cookie" Extend an ongoing persistent confirmed commit that uses the cookie "oldcookie" and turn it into a non-persistent confirmed commit.

      • persist = null, persistId = null Does the same as candidateConfirmedCommit(int).

      Typical usage is to start a persistent confirmed commit with persist = "cookie", persistId = null, and to extend it with persist = "cookie", persistId = "cookie". Throws ConfException
      Parameters:
      timeoutsecs - timeout for the confirmed commit
      persist - value for a new persistent confirmed commit
      persistId - value for an already ongoing persistent confirmed commit
      Throws:

    • requestAction

      public ConfXMLParam[] requestAction(ConfXMLParam[] params, String fmt, Object... arguments) throws IOException, ConfException
      Invokes an action defined in the data model annotated with tailf:action (see tailf_yang_extensions(5)).

      The input parameters is specified as ConfXMLParam as the input array param which corresponds to the input section of the action.

      The output parameters returned from the method call returns a array of ConfXMLParam which corresponds to the output section of the action. Consider the following yang model: 

       module cs {
     namespace "http://example.com/test/cs/1.0";
     prefix cs;
     import tailf-common {
         prefix tailf;
     }

     typedef math_op {
         type enumeration {
             enum add;
             enum sub;
             enum mul;

             tailf:action math {
                 tailf:actionpoint math_cs;
                 input {
                     list operation {
                         min-elements 1;
                         max-elements 3;
                         leaf number {
                             type int32;
                             mandatory true;
                         }
                         leaf type {
                             type math_op;
                             mandatory true;
                         }
                         leaf-list operands {
                             type int16;
                         }
                     }
                 }
                 output {
                     container result {
                         presence "";
                         leaf number {
                             type int32;
                             mandatory true;
                         }
                         leaf type {
                             type math_op;
                             mandatory true;
                         }
                         leaf value {
                             type int16;
                             mandatory true;
                         }
                     }
                 }
             }
         }
     }
 }
      The following is a example of how to assemble the action parameters into and array of ConfXMLParam and its subclasses: 
       ConfNamespace n = new cs();
 ConfXMLParam[] params =
     new ConfXMLParam[] {
         new ConfXMLParamStart(n, cs.cs_operation_),
         new ConfXMLParamValue(n, cs.cs_number_,  new ConfInt32(13)),
         new ConfXMLParamValue(n, cs.cs_type_,    new ConfEnumeration(0)),
         new ConfXMLParamValue(n, cs.cs_operands_,
                               new ConfList(new ConfObject[] {
                                            new ConfInt16(13),
                                            new ConfInt16(25) })),
         new ConfXMLParamStop(n, cs.cs_operation_)};
      Using this we can call the action: 
       Maapi maapi = Maapi(socket);
 maapi.setNamespace(
 maapi.startUserSession("admin",
     InetAddress.getByName("localhost"),
     "maapi",
     new String[] { "admin" },
     MaapiUserSessionFlag.PROTO_TCP);
 //Invokes the specified action with input arguments params
 //and returns the output parameters
 ConfXMLParam[] res = maapi.requestAction(params,
                                "/system/computer{fred}/math");

      The path given by fmt and the varargs list is the full path to the action, i.e. the final element must be the name of the action element in the YANG model.

      Since actions are not associated with transactions, the namespace must be provided and the path must be absolute transactions, the namespace must be provided and the path must be absolute - but see requestActionTh(int,ConfXMLParam[],String,Object...).

      The Maapi instance must have an established user session before issue this method call.

      Parameters:
      params - action input parameters
      fmt - path string, this must be an absolute path with its root element prefixed .i.e "/prefix:tagname/...."
      arguments - optional parameters for substitution in fmt
      Returns:
      array of ConfXMLParam as the output parameters
      Throws:
      ConfException - If the methods invocation fails for some reason. The errorCode or message could be obtain through getErrorCode, getMessage()
      IOException - Signals that a I/O exception has occurred on the stream to ConfD/NCS

      This method throws away any old MaapiSchemas container and downloads a new from the server.

      Which namespaces are loaded is specified and do not need to be the same as the earlier loaded that is viped out. This method can therefore unload old schemas and add loading of new schemas.

      Parameters:
      namespaceURIs - string array of URIs for the schemas to load

    • loadConfigStream

      public MaapiOutputStream loadConfigStream(int tid, EnumSet<MaapiConfigFlag> flags) throws ConfException, IOException
      Load configuration from a OuputStream into ConfD/NCS.

      This method loads a configuration from a OutputStream into the server.

      The tid parameter is a transaction id. Thus the application must create and also apply the transaction. By default the complete configuration (as allowed by the user of the current transaction) is deleted before the file is loaded.

      To merge the contents of the file use the MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_MERGE flag. The MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_WITH_OPER flag can be used together with MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_XML to mean that any operational data in the file should be ignored (instead of producing an error).

      The other flags parameters are the same as for saveConfig(int, EnumSet, String, Object...)

      Parameters:

    • loadConfig

      public void loadConfig(int tid, EnumSet<MaapiConfigFlag> flags, String filename) throws ConfException, IOException
      This function loads a configuration from filename into the server. The tid parameter is a transaction id. Thus the application must create and also apply the transaction. By default the complete configuration (as allowed by the user of the current transaction) is deleted before the file is loaded. To merge the contents of the file use the MAAPI_CONFIG_MERGE flag. The MAAPI_CONFIG_WITH_OPER flag can be used together with MAAPI_CONFIG_XML to mean that any operational data in the file should be ignored (instead of producing an error). The other flags parameters are the same as for saveConfig(int, EnumSet, String, Object...)
      Parameters:
      tid - transaction id for started transaction
      flags - One of MAAPI_CONFIG_XML, MAAPI_CONFIG_J , MAAPI_CONFIG_C, MAAPI_CONFIG_WITH_DEFAULTS, MAAPI_CONFIG_SHOW_DEFAULTS, MAAPI_CONFIG_C_IOS, MAAPI_CONFIG_MERGE or MAAPI_CONFIG_WITH_OPER
      filename - name of the configuration file relative directory where ConfD/NCS started.
      Throws:
      MaapiException
      ConfException
      IOException

    • loadConfigCmds

      public void loadConfigCmds(int tid, EnumSet<MaapiConfigFlag> flags, String cmds, String fmt, Object... arguments) throws IOException, ConfException
      This function loads a configuration from a string into the server. By default the complete configuration (as allowed by the user of the current transaction) is deleted before the file is loaded. To merge the contents of the file use the MAAPI_CONFIG_MERGE flag. The MAAPI_CONFIG_WITH_OPER flag can be used together with MAAPI_CONFIG_XML to mean that any operational data in the file should be ignored (instead of producing an error). The other flags parameters are the same as for saveConfig(int, EnumSet, String, Object...)
      Parameters:
      tid - transaction id for started transaction
      flags - One of MAAPI_CONFIG_XML, MAAPI_CONFIG_J, MAAPI_CONFIG_C, MAAPI_CONFIG_WITH_DEFAULTS, MAAPI_CONFIG_SHOW_DEFAULTS, MAAPI_CONFIG_C_IOS, MAAPI_CONFIG_MERGE or MAAPI_CONFIG_WITH_OPER
      cmds - string representing the configuration to be loaded
      fmt - path relative to which the configuration should be loaded
      Throws:
      ConfException
      IOException

    • saveConfig

      public MaapiInputStream saveConfig(int tid, EnumSet<MaapiConfigFlag> flags, ConfPath path) throws ConfException, IOException
      Save the subtree in different formats.
      Retrieves an InputStream from a given path specified by fmt with flags parameter which controls the format as follows:
      Flag Description
      Raw-XML MaapiConfigFlag.XML_FORMAT, MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_XML The configuration format is XML
      Pretty-XML MaapiConfigFlag.XML_PRETTY, MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_XML_PRETTY The configuration format is pretty printed XML
      Juniper CLI format MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_J, MaapiConfigFlag.JUNIPER_CLI_FORMAT The configuration is in curly brace Juniper CLI format
      Cisco XR CLI format MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_C_IOS, MaapiConfigFlag.CISCO_XR_FORMAT The configuration is in Cisco XR style format
      Cisco IOS CLI format MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_C_IOS, MaapiConfigFlag.CISCO_IOS_FORMAT The configuration is in Cisco IOS style format

      The provided path indicates from where the configuration is to be rooted. If for example fmt is "/aaa:aaa/authentication/users" we only dump a part of the AAA data. It must be a prefix pre pended keypath.

      By default, the treatment of nodes with a tailf:hidden statement depends on the state of the transaction. For a transaction started via MAAPI, no nodes are hidden, while for a transaction started by another northbound agent (e.g. CLI) and attached to, the nodes that are hidden are the same as in that agent session. The default can be overridden by using one of the flags MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_HIDE_ALL and MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_UNHIDE_ALL.

      By default, the NCS service-meta-data attributes (refcounter, backpointer, and original-value) are not included in the configuration. The flag MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_WITH_SERVICE_META can be used to request that these attributes should be included.

      The library will initialize a new socket to the end point specified by the initial socket (which was created during initialization of this Maapi instance) thus it is up to the use

      Parameters:
      tid - transaction id of the current transaction
      flags - format parameters (see the table above ) with additional MAAPI_CONFIG_WITH_DEFAULTS, MAAPI_CONFIG_SHOW_DEFAULTS for controlling the defaults MAAPI_CONFIG_READ_WRITE_ACCESS_ONLY for saving only nodes for which the user has read_write access
      path - path indicating where the configuration to be rooted
      Returns:
      MaapiInputStream On success
      Throws:
      ConfException - If the methods invocation fails for some reason. The errorCode or message could be obtain through getErrorCode, getMessage()
      IOException - Signals that a I/O exception has occurred on the stream to ConfD/NCS

    • saveConfig

      public MaapiInputStream saveConfig(int tid, EnumSet<MaapiConfigFlag> flags) throws ConfException, IOException
      Save the entire config in different formats.
      Retrieves an InputStream with flags parameter which controls the format as follows:
      Flag Description
      Raw-XML MaapiConfigFlag.XML_FORMAT, MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_XML The configuration format is XML
      Pretty-XML MaapiConfigFlag.XML_PRETTY, MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_XML_PRETTY The configuration format is pretty printed XML
      Juniper CLI format MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_J, MaapiConfigFlag.JUNIPER_CLI_FORMAT The configuration is in curly brace Juniper CLI format
      Cisco XR CLI format MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_C_IOS, MaapiConfigFlag.CISCO_XR_FORMAT The configuration is in Cisco XR style format
      Cisco IOS CLI format MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_C_IOS, MaapiConfigFlag.CISCO_IOS_FORMAT The configuration is in Cisco IOS style format

      By default, the treatment of nodes with a tailf:hidden statement depends on the state of the transaction. For a transaction started via MAAPI, no nodes are hidden, while for a transaction started by another northbound agent (e.g. CLI) and attached to, the nodes that are hidden are the same as in that agent session. The default can be overridden by using one of the flags MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_HIDE_ALL and MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_UNHIDE_ALL.

      Entire configuration is dumped, except that namespaces with restricted export (from 'confdc/ncsc --export') are treated as follows:

      • When the MAAPI_CONFIG_XML or MAAPI_CONFIG_XML_PRETTY formats are used, the context of the user session that started the transaction is used to select namespaces with restricted export. If the "system" context is used, all namespaces are selected, regardless of export restriction.

      • When one of the CLI formats is used, the context used to select namespaces with restricted export is always "CLI".

      The library will initialize a new socket to the end point specified by the initial socket (which was created during initialization of this Maapi instance) thus it is up to the use

      Parameters:
      tid - transaction id of the current transaction
      flags - format parameters (see the table above ) with additional MAAPI_CONFIG_WITH_DEFAULTS, MAAPI_CONFIG_SHOW_DEFAULTS for controlling the defaults
      Returns:
      MaapiInputStream On success
      Throws:
      ConfException - If the methods invocation fails for some reason. The errorCode or message could be obtain through getErrorCode, getMessage()
      IOException - Signals that a I/O exception has occurred on the stream to ConfD/NCS

      Cisco IOS CLI format MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_C_IOS, MaapiConfigFlag.CISCO_IOS_FORMAT The configuration is in Cisco IOS style format

      The provided path indicates from where the configuration is to be rooted. If for example fmt is "/aaa:aaa/authentication/users" we only dump a part of the AAA data. It must be a prefix pre pended keypath.

      By default, the treatment of nodes with a tailf:hidden statement depends on the state of the transaction. For a transaction started via MAAPI, no nodes are hidden, while for a transaction started by another northbound agent (e.g. CLI) and attached to, the nodes that are hidden are the same as in that agent session. The default can be overridden by using one of the flags MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_HIDE_ALL and MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_UNHIDE_ALL.

      For MAAPI_CONFIG_XML and MAAPI_CONFIG_XML_PRETTY it is alternatively possible to give an XPath filter, by including the flag MaapiConfigFlag.MAAPI_CONFIG_XPATH.

      The library will initialize a new socket to the end point specified by the initial socket (which was created during initialization of this Maapi instance) thus it is up to the user to close the returning InputStream after reading the configuration.

      Parameters:
      tid - transaction id of the current transaction
      flags - format parameters (see the table above ) with additional MAAPI_CONFIG_WITH_DEFAULTS, MAAPI_CONFIG_SHOW_DEFAULTS for controlling the defaults
      fmt - path indicating where the configuration to be rooted
      args - variable argument list for c-style parameters in fmt
      Returns:
      MaapiInputStream On success the library will initialize a new socket which is intended to be closed after usage of this method by the user
      Throws:
      ConfException - If the methods invocation fails for some reason. The errorCode or message could be obtain through getErrorCode, getMessage()
      IOException - Signals that a I/O exception has occurred on the stream to ConfD/NCS

    • rollbackConfig

      public MaapiInputStream rollbackConfig(int tid, String fmt, String... args) throws MaapiException
      This function can be used to save the equivalent of a rollback file for a given configuration before it is committed (or a subtree thereof) in curly bracket format. The provided path indicates where we want the configuration to be rooted. It must be a prefix pre pended keypath. If fmt is null, a rollback config for the entire configuration is dumped. If for example fmt is "/aaa:aaa/authentication/users" we create a rollback config for a part of the AAA data. It is not possible to extract non-config data using this function. The data is returned as a MaapiInputStream that is used to download the configuration @see MaapiInputStream
      Parameters:
      tid - transaction id for current transaction
      fmt - path indicating where the configuration to be rooted
      args - variable argument list for c-style parameters in fmtPath
      Returns:
      MaapiInputStream

    • initUpgrade

      public void initUpgrade(int timeoutsecs, int flags) throws IOException, ConfException
      Note, This method is only applicable for Confd. For NCS, the In-service Data Model Upgrades are directly correlated to NCS packages and have more high-level support. This is the first of three functions that must be called in sequence to perform an in-service data model upgrade, i.e. replace fxs files etc without restarting the server. See the In-service Data Model Upgrade chapter in the Confd User Guide for a detailed description of this procedure. This function initializes the upgrade procedure. The timeoutsecs parameter specifies a maximum time to wait for users to voluntarily exit from "configure mode" sessions in CLI and Web UI. If transactions are still active when the timeout expires, the function throw an ConfException. If the flag MAAPI_UPGRADE_KILL_ON_TIMEOUT was given via the flags parameter, such transactions will instead be forcibly terminated, allowing the initialization to complete successfully.
      Parameters:
      timeoutsecs - specifies a maximum time to wait for users to exit
      flags - bitflags for control of upgrade behavior
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • performUpgrade

      public void performUpgrade(String[] loadpathdirs) throws IOException, ConfException
      Note, This method is only applicable for Confd. For NCS, the In-service Data Model Upgrades are directly correlated to NCS packages and have more high-level support. When initUpgrade() has completed successfully, this function must be called to instruct the server to load the new data model files. The loadpathdirs parameter is an array of n strings that specify the directories to load from.
      Parameters:
      loadpathdirs - array of directories
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • commitUpgrade

      public void commitUpgrade() throws IOException, ConfException
      Note, This method is only applicable for Confd. For NCS, the In-service Data Model Upgrades are directly correlated to NCS packages and have more high-level support. When also performUpgrade() has completed successfully, this function must be called to make the upgrade permanent. This includes committing the CDB upgrade transaction when CDB is used, and we can thus get all the different exceptions that can otherwise result from applyTrans(). When commitUpgrade() has completed successfully, the program driving the upgrade must also make sure that the loadpath elements in confd.conf reference the new directories.
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • abortUpgrade

      public void abortUpgrade() throws IOException, ConfException
      Note, This method is only applicable for Confd. For NCS, the In-service Data Model Upgrades are directly correlated to NCS packages and have more high-level support. Calling this function at any point before the call of commitUpgrade() will abort the upgrade. Note! abortUpgrade() should NOT be called if any of the three previous functions fail - in that case, the server will do an internal abort of the upgrade.
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • getAttrs

      public ConfAttributeValue[] getAttrs(int tid, ConfAttributeType[] attribs, String fmt, Object... args) throws IOException, ConfException
      Retrieve attributes for a configuration node. These attributes are currently supported: ConfAttributeType.TAGS (values are ConfList of ConfBuf) ConfAttributeType.ANNOTATION (value is ConfBuf) ConfAttributeType.INACTIVE (not used) ConfAttributeType.ORIGIN (value is ConfIdentityRef) The attribs parameter is an array of ConfAttributeType objects, specifying the wanted attributes - if the array is empty or attribs is null, all attributes are retrieved. If no attributes are found, the returned ConfAttributeValue array is empty otherwise the result array is populated.
      Parameters:
      tid - current transaction
      attribs - array of ConfAttributeType denoting attributes to retrieve
      fmt - path indicating node to retrieve attributes from
      args - variable argument list for c-style parameters in fmtPath

      Set an attribute for a configuration node. See getAttrs() above for the supported attributes. if the attribute should be removed the ConfAttributeValue should be set attr.isRemoveValue()
      Parameters:
      tid - current transaction
      attr - ConfAttributeValue object denoting the attribute to set
      fmt - path indicating node to retrieve attributes from
      args - variable argument list for c-style parameters in fmtPath

      IOException
      ConfException

    • setFlags

      public void setFlags(int tid, EnumSet<MaapiFlag> flags) throws IOException, ConfException
      This method can modify some aspects of the read/write session, see MaapiFlag The flags are an Enumset of MaapiFlag
      Parameters:
      tid - current transaction
      flags - Enumset of MaapiFlag
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • getCwd

      public String getCwd(int tid) throws IOException, ConfException
      Returns the current position as previously set by Maapi.cd(), Maapi.pushd(), or Maapi.popd() as a String. Note that what is returned is a pretty-printed version of the internal representation of the current position, it will be the shortest unique way to print the path but it might not exactly match the string given to Maapi.cd()
      Parameters:
      tid - current transaction
      Returns:
      String
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • getCwdPath

      public ConfPath getCwdPath(int tid) throws IOException, ConfException
      Returns the current position like Maapi.getCwd(), but as a ConfPath instead of as a String.
      Parameters:
      tid - current transaction
      Returns:
      ConfPath

    • disconnectRemote

      public void disconnectRemote(String address) throws IOException, ConfException
      Disconnect all remote connections between CONFD_IPC_PORT (see the IPC section in the Advanced Topics chapter in the User Guide) and address. Since clients, e.g. CDB readers/subscribers, are connected using TCP it is also possible to do this remotely over a network. However since TCP does not offer a fast and reliable way of detecting that the other end has disappeared the server can get stuck waiting for a reply from such a disconnected client. In some environments there will be an alternative supervision method that can detect when a remote host is unavailable, and in that situation this function can be used to instruct the server to drop all remote connections to a particular host. The address parameter is an IP address as a string. On success, the function returns the number of connections that were closed. Note, the server will close all its sockets with remote address address, except HA connections.
      Parameters:
      address -
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException

    • disconnectSockets

      public void disconnectSockets(int[] sockets) throws IOException, ConfException
      This function is an alternative to disconnectRemote() that can be useful in particular when using the "External IPC" functionality (see "Using a different IPC mechanism" in the ConfD IPC section in the Advanced Topics chapter in the User Guide). In this case ConfD does not have any knowledge of the remote address of the IPC connections, and thus disconnectRemote() is not applicable. disconnectSockets() instead takes an array of file descriptor numbers as the parameter. ConfD will close all connected sockets whose local file descriptor number is included that array.
      Parameters:
      sockets - The array of socket file descriptors to close
      Throws:
      IOException
      MaapiException
      ConfException

    • getCLIInteraction

      Parameters:
      usid - user session id
      Returns:
      CLIInteraction

      Evaluated the xpath expression as supplied in by expr.

      For each node in the resulting node set theresult(ConfObject[],ConfValue,Object) method of @see MaapiXPathEvalResult is called with the keypath (as ConfObject[]) to the resulting node as the first argument, and, if the node is a leaf and has a value (as ConfValue), the value of that node as the second argument otherwise it will return the string "undefined".

      The expression will be evaluated using the root node as the context node, unless a path to an existing node is given as the fmt argument.

      For each invocation the result method should return ITER_CONTINUE to tell the xpath evaluator to continue with the next resulting node. To stop the evaluation the result can return ITER_STOP instead. The MaapiXPathEvalTrace implementation of a method trace(String) that takes a single string as argument.

      If supplied (optional) it will be invoked when the xpath evaluator has trace output for the current expression.

      The initstate parameter can be used for any user supplied opaque data (i.e. whatever is supplied as initstate is passed as state to the result method for each invocation).
      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction handle
      xpatheval - A implementation of MaapiXPathEvalResult callback method
      xpathtrace - A implementation of MaapiXPathEvalTrace or null if no trace is wanted

      Evaluate the xpath expression given in expr parameter and return the result as a string.

      It is possible to supply a path fmt (optional) which will be treated as the initial context node when evaluating expr.

      If the path is relative, this is treated as the starting point, and this is also the node that current() will return when used in the xpath expression.

      If null is given, the current maapi position is used (set by cd(int,String,Object...))

      The MaapiXPathEvalTrace implementation of the method trace(String) which takes a single string as argument (optional) will be invoked if supplied (optional) when the xpath implementation has trace output for the current expression.

      Parameters:
      tid - Transaction handle
      expr - The xpath expression
      xpathtrace - A implementation of MaapiXPathEvalTrace or null if no trace is wanted A implementation of MaapiXPathEvalTrace or null if no trace is wanted

    • queryStart

      public <T extends ResultType> QueryResult<T> queryStart(int tid, String expr, String context, int chunkSize, int offset, List<String> select, List<String> sort, boolean reverseSortOrder, Class<T> cls) throws IOException, ConfException
      Initiate (or starts) a new XPath query attached to the transaction given in th.

      If successful a QueryResult is returned which represents a query result.

      The XPath expr string parameter is a primary XPath expression which must evaluate to a node-set, the "results". For each node in the results node-set every "select" expression is evaluated with the result node as its context. For example, given the YANG snippet: 

           list interface {
         key name;
         unique number;
         leaf name {
           type string;
         }
         leaf number {
           type uint32;
           mandatory true;
         }
         leaf enabled {
           type boolean;
           default true;
         }
       ...
       }
      and given that we want to find the name and number of all enabled interfaces - the expr could be "/interface[enabled='true']", and the select expressions would be { "name","number" }.

      Note that the select expressions can have any valid XPath expression, so if you wanted to find out an interfaces name, and whether its number is even or not, the expressions would be: { "name", "(number mod 2) == 0" } .

      The select parameter determining what to include in the result.

      The chunksize is the possibility to return the result in groups of a particular size. This option determines the fetch frequency for a iterator.

      The "chunk" retrieval is done by the QueryResult.iterator() iterator which process result locally and when it needs more data it retrieve the next chunk (if available).

      The offset is the number of the first result in this chunk (i.e. for the first chunk it will be 1).

      If the underlying database supports multiple "tables" there is usually also support for "join" (the ability to make a filter span several tables), in ConfD/NCS this is usually not an issue - reference to "other" tables are naturally done using leafref, and thus it is possible to filter on "foreign keys" (to use SQL terminology).

      Parameters:
      tid - transaction handle
      expr - XPath expression
      context - A context node
      chunkSize - Result chunksize to fetch
      offset - The offset to start fetch
      select - A list of XPath "select" expressions
      sort - A list of XPath exressions used for sorting
      reverseSortOrder - Set this to true to get items in the reverse order (only if "sort" is specified)
      cls - Result type
      Returns:
      A QueryResult where resulting nodes and values could be fetched.
      Throws:
      IOException - if the underlying socket or input stream is closed for some reason
      ConfException - if the XPath parser encounters error for some reason

    • queryStart

      public <T extends ResultType> QueryResult<T> queryStart(int tid, String expr, String context, int chunkSize, int offset, List<String> select, Class<T> cls) throws IOException, ConfException
      Initiate (or starts) a new XPath query attached to the transaction given in tid.

      Runs an XPath query with default sort order

      If successful a QueryResult is returned which represents a query result.

      Parameters:
      tid - transaction handle
      expr - XPath expression
      context - A context node
      chunkSize - Result chunksize to fetch
      offset - The offset to start fetch
      select - A list of XPath "select" expressions
      cls - Result type
      Returns:
      A QueryResult where resulting nodes and values could be fetched.

    • setDelayedWhen

      public boolean setDelayedWhen(int tid, boolean on) throws IOException, ConfException
      This function enables/disables the "delayed when" mode of a transaction. When successful, it returns true/false as indication of whether "delayed when" was enabled or disabled before the call. The YANG when statement makes its parent data definition statement conditional. This can be problematic in cases where we don't have control over the order of writing different data nodes. E.g. when loading configuration from a file, the data that will satisfy the when condition may occur after the data that the when applies to, making it impossible to actually write the latter data into the transaction - since the when isn't satisifed, the data nodes effectively do not exist in the schema. This is addressed by the "delayed when" mode for a transaction. When "delayed when" is enabled, it is possible to write to data nodes even though they are conditional on a when that isn't satisfied. It has no effect on reading though - trying to read data that is conditional on an unsatisfied when will always result in ConfNoExists value or equivalent. When disabling "delayed when", any "delayed" when statements will take effect immediately - i.e. if the when isn't satisfied at that point, the conditional nodes and any data values for them will be deleted. If we don't explicitly disable "delayed when" by calling this function, it will be automatically disabled when the transaction enters the VALIDATE state (e.g. due to call of applyTrans(int, boolean).
      Parameters:
      tid - transaction id
      on - true if "delayed when" mode should be activated, false if "delayed when" mode should be deactivated.
      Returns:
      true if "delayed when" was active before this call, otherwise false
      Throws:
      IOException
      ConfException
