CPS core output before modification to NCMP passthrough operation output

The following details were used to compare and analyze the current CPS core output to NCMP passthrough operation output

Model	bookstore.yang
Data	bookstore.json
CPS core endpoint	/v1/dataspaces/{dataspace-name}/anchors/{anchor-name}/node
NCMP Passthrough operation	/v1/ch/{cm-handle}/data/ds/ncmp-datastore:passthrough-running

Scenario 1: XPath is pointing to root i.e. '/'

CPS = '/'

    def 'Parsing a valid Json String.'() {
        given: 'a yang model (file)'

The test above passed for the used data.

The following data wherein the list attribute also contains a prefix was also tested to see if the YangTools parser will fail. The same result as the above test was collected.

Building the data node

DataNodeBuilder class was modified to add the method 'withModuleName()' which adds a module name attribute to the DataNode object being built.

When the buildFromAttributes() method is called it then calls the added method addModulePrefixToXpath(moduleName).

addModulePrefixToXpath(moduleName) contains the following logic

Code Block

collapse	true

        if xpath contains '['
           insert module name prefix after the last '/'
        else
            insert module name prefix after the first character ('/')

Example module name	stores
/bookstore	/stores:bookstore
