Using multiple YANG files cases
Below are most common cases expected to be handled.
Sample files were used to validate the expected flows and possible issues.
The sample files are attached here yang-test.zip
Augmentation
The augmentation is mainly used to extends an existing model. The augmentation is encapsulated within separate
module file, having own namespace and revision. Example:
base.yang module base { yang-version 1.1; namespace "org:onap:cps:test:base"; revision "2020-01-01"; prefix "base"; container base-container { leaf name { type string; } leaf description { type string; } } } | augment.yang module augment { yang-version 1.1; namespace "org:onap:cps:test:augment"; revision "2020-01-02"; prefix "augment"; import base { prefix "base"; } grouping augment-group { leaf augmented-leaf { type string; } } augment "base:base-container" { uses augment-group; } } | augment.json { "base-container": { "name": "test name", "description": "test description", "augmented-leaf": "more information" } } |
Empty module issue
When files are processed the effective model is referenced by name, namespace and revision of a base module, which are not changed and remain same.
At the same time the augment module became extra, because it contains no model so it won't be ever referenced (directly) for data validation.
Imports
The imports are mainly used to re-use definitions from existing modules.
importer.yang module base { yang-version 1.1; namespace "org:onap:cps:test:importer"; revision "2020-02-01"; prefix "importer"; import exporter { prefix "exporter"; } container importer-container { leaf name { type string; } leaf description { type string; } uses "exporter:export-group"; } } | exporter.yang module exporter { yang-version 1.1; namespace "org:onap:cps:test:exporter"; revision "2020-02-02"; prefix "exporter"; grouping export-group { leaf exporter-leaf { type string; } } container exporter-container { uses export-group; } } | importer.json (valid) { "importer-container": { "name": "test name", "description": "test description", "exporter-leaf": "test imported" } } exporter.json (also valid) { "exporter-container": { "exporter-leaf": "test data" } } |
Multiple valid models issue
When the data is being decomposed using a schema context built from these two yang files, there will be no any error
if the incoming JSON matches any of models within . The appropriate module (for validation/parsing) could be chosen
dynamically. It also possible there could be collision if root container elements of both modules are having same name.
Assembly using submodules
Assembly case is mainly used to for organizational purposes when large module file is split to logical peaces (submodules)
for better maintainability. Submodules may have own revision but the namespace is shared with assembly module (the submodule belongs to).
assembly.yang module assembly { yang-version 1.1; namespace "org:onap:cps:test:assembly"; prefix "assembly"; revision "2020-03-01"; include "component"; container module-container { leaf name { type string; } leaf description { type string; } } } | component.yang submodule component { yang-version 1.1; revision "2020-03-02"; belongs-to "assembly" { prefix "assembly"; } container submodule-container { leaf name { type string; } leaf description { type string; } } } | assembly.json (invalid) { "module-container": { "name": "module name", "description": "module description" }, "submodule-container": { "name": "submodule name", "description": "submodule description" } } |
