This call should fetch the source for ietf-yang-types YANG model from
the mounted device.
+Receving Netconf Device Notifications on a http client
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Devices emit netconf alarms and notifictions on certain situtations, which can demand
+attention from Device Administration. The notifications are received as Netconf messages on an
+active Netconf session.
+
+Opendaylight provides the way to stream the device notifications over a http session.
+
+- Step 1: Mount the device (assume node name is test_device)
+
+- Step 2: Wait for the device to be connected.
+
+- Step 3: Create the Subscription for notification on the active session.
+
+ .. code-block::
+
+ POST
+ http://localhost:8181/rests/operations/network-topology:network-topology/topology=topology-netconf/node=test_device/yang-ext:mount/notifications:create-subscription
+ Content-Type: application/json
+ Accept: application/json
+
+ .. code-block:: json
+
+ {
+ "input": {
+ "stream": "NETCONF"
+ }
+ }
+
+- Step 4: Create the http Stream for the events.
+
+.. code-block::
+
+ POST
+ http://localhost:8181/rests/operations/odl-device-notification:subscribe-device-notification
+ Content-Type: application/json
+ Accept: application/json
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+ {
+ "input": {
+ "path":"/network-topology:network-topology/topology[topology-id='topology-netconf']/node[node-id='test_device']"
+ }
+ }
+
+The response suggests the http url for reading the notifications.
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+ {
+ "odl-device-notification:output": {
+ "stream-path": "http://localhost:8181/rests/notif/test_device?notificationType=test_device"
+ }
+ }
+
+- Step 5: User can access the url in the response and the notifications will be as follows.
+
+.. code-block::
+
+ GET
+ http://localhost:8181/rests/notif/test_device?notificationType=test_device
+ Content-Type: application/xml
+ Accept: application/xml
+
+
+.. code-block:: xml

Netconf-connector + Netopeer
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You have to specify what local YANG modules directory you want to provide.
Then you have to specify address and port whre you want to provide YANG
sources. For example, we want to serve yang sources from folder /sources
-on localhost:5000 adress. The configuration for this scenario will be
+on localhost:8181 adress. The configuration for this scenario will be
as follows:
::
- PUT http://localhost:8181/restconf/config/network-topology:network-topology/topology/topology-netconf/node/controller-config/yang-ext:mount/config:modules/module/yanglib:yanglib/example
+ PUT http://localhost:8181/rests/data/yanglib:yanglib-config
Headers:
::
- <module xmlns="urn:opendaylight:params:xml:ns:yang:controller:config">
- <name>example</name>
- <type xmlns:prefix="urn:opendaylight:params:xml:ns:yang:controller:yanglib:impl">prefix:yanglib</type>
- <broker xmlns="urn:opendaylight:params:xml:ns:yang:controller:yanglib:impl">
- <type xmlns:prefix="urn:opendaylight:params:xml:ns:yang:controller:md:sal:binding">prefix:binding-broker-osgi-registry</type>
- <name>binding-osgi-broker</name>
- </broker>
- <cache-folder xmlns="urn:opendaylight:params:xml:ns:yang:controller:yanglib:impl">/sources</cache-folder>
- <binding-addr xmlns="urn:opendaylight:params:xml:ns:yang:controller:yanglib:impl">localhost</binding-addr>
- <binding-port xmlns="urn:opendaylight:params:xml:ns:yang:controller:yanglib:impl">5000</binding-port>
- </module>
+ <yanglib-config xmlns="urn:opendaylight:params:xml:ns:yang:controller:yanglib:impl">
+ <cache-folder>cache/newSchema</cache-folder>
+ <binding-addr>localhost</binding-addr>
+ <binding-port>8181</binding-port>
+ </yanglib-config>
This should result in a 2xx response and new YANGLIB instance should be
created. This YANGLIB takes all YANG sources from /sources folder and
::
- http://localhost:5000/schemas/{modelName}/{revision}
+ http://localhost:8181/yanglib/schemas/{modelName}/{revision}
On this URL will be hosted YANG source for particular module.
The device **must** initiate the connection and the server will not try to re-establish the
connection in case of a drop. By requirement, the server cannot assume it has connectivity
to the device due to NAT or firewalls among others.
+
+Reading data with selected fields
+---------------------------------
+
+Overview
+~~~~~~~~
+
+If user would like to read only selected fields from NETCONF device, it is possible to use
+fields query parameter that is described by RFC-8040. RESTCONF parses content of query
+parameter into format that is accepted by NETCONF subtree filtering - filtering of data is done
+on NETCONF server, not on NETCONF client side. This approach optimizes network traffic load,
+because data in which user doesn't have interest, is not transferred over network.
+
+Next advantages:
+
+* using single RESTCONF request and single NETCONF RPC for reading multiple subtrees
+* possibility to read only selected fields under list node across multiple hierarchies
+ (it cannot be done without proper selection API)
+
+.. note::
+
+ More information about fields query parameter: `RFC 8071 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8040#section-4.8.3>`__
+

+Examples
+--------
+
+1. Reading whole leaf-list 'll' and leaf 'nested/sample-x' under 'simple-root' container.
+
+RESTCONF request:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ curl --location --request GET 'http://localhost:8181/rests/data/network-topology:network-topology/topology=topology-netconf/node=testtool/yang-ext:mount/test-module:root/simple-root?content=config&fields=ll;nested/sample-x' \

+ --header 'Cookie: JSESSIONID=node01h4w82eorc1k61866b71qjgj503.node0'

+Generated NETCONF RPC request:
+

+ </root>
+ </filter>
+ </get-config>
+ </rpc>
+
+.. note::
+
+ Using fields query parameter it is also possible to read whole leaf-list or list without

+2. Reading all identifiers of 'nested-list' under all elements of 'top-list'.

+
+.. note::
+
+ NETCONF client automatically fetches values of list keys since they are required for correct
