converting my yang file into cpp

hariharan.a — Mon, 16 Oct 2017 23:08:01 GMT

Hi,

If I were to write a yang file (with any dependent yang modules in say ietf/cisco-ios-xr, etc) and convert that into a cpp file using ydk-cpp, could you please let me know the steps involved ? This will help me to understand ydk-cpp framework better in YANG / CPP usage.

Thanks,

Hari

Hari,

You should be able to refer to the instructions at:

https://github.com/CiscoDevNet/ydk-gen

The README.md file for that project tries to take a developer through the steps required to get to generating code from models. Please feel free to give us feedback on issues with the instructions.

We focus on Linux and MacOS environments, so recommend that you don’t try to work on Windows for now.

Cheers,

Einar

Thanks Einar. I am able to make some progress. Stuck in "Thrid Step". Getting Emit Error "Illegal path". I validated the yang file separately with yang validator and its fine.

If I remove the leaf type enumeration, its able to generate code.

I am in the same version too. Let me try few more things ang get back.

[root@ODLserver ydk-gen]# git log -1

Fixes #581 (#594)

* Add additional cpp samples

* If leaf has same name as parent in path::DataNode, do not skip it

Didnt work. Same error. I also tried with this simple yang model. Looks like ydk doesnt like the enumeration type.

module pd {

yang-version "1";

namespace "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:pd";

prefix "pd";

organization "Packet Design";

contact "email: hari@packetdesign.com";

description "This module defines YANG data model

revision "2017-10-17" {

description "Initial revision";

reference "todo";

}

container service {

description "A Packet Design SDN Service";

leaf serviceType {

type enumeration {

enum PLATINUM;

}

Strange. I still am not able to reproduce your issue. I tried the exact same command you are trying.

Can you try to clone ydk-gen in a fresh directory and try it out? Perhaps could be some issue with your directory?

Re: converting my yang file into cpp

hariharan.a — Wed, 18 Oct 2017 21:35:36 GMT

Tried the same in a new directory. Still the same issue. Would you mind doing a webex ?

hariharan.a — Wed, 18 Oct 2017 22:08:24 GMT

Fixed it. I need to do "pip upgrade" inside my python virtualenv to get the correct pip version.

(py2)[root@ODLserver build]# pip --version

pip 9.0.1 from /root/.virtualenvs/py2/lib/python2.7/site-packages (python 2.7)

Glad you were able to resolve it ☺
