What is purpose of Templates in NSO (ncs library python)

[Elvin J]

Firstly, I want to say that, I just started learning NSO, that is why my question might be primitive, sorry for that.

What are the template files (XML files under template folder) ?  why they are used? when they should be changed?  and mainly, who uses those templates after applying parameters to templates?  Let's say I apply new parameter to template, should I change template accordingly?   


Would be much helpful if you help me to understand this part

Templates are used to apply config anywhere to the NSO CDB. You save your XML-files in the template folder which allows the template API to find them, when invoked from your package code. But I don't think I'll be able to explain it any better than our documentation: https://developer.cisco.com/docs/nso/guides/#!templates
