Add a commit comment from python code

[AlaeddineJebnoun90723]

Hello,

I'm wondering how can I add a comment to a commit launched from python code using MAAPI API.

I found that there is a function called 

int maapi_set_comment(int sock, int thandle, const char *comment)

but I didn't figure out how can I use it.

Thanks in advance,

Hello Alaeddine ,

Here an example where i create a device-group then i set  a comment  

with ncs.maapi.Maapi() as m:
    with ncs.maapi.Session(m, 'admin', 'test_context'):
        with m.start_write_trans() as trans:
            root = ncs.maagic.get_root(trans)
            root.ncs__devices.device_group.create("test-python512115")
            trans.set_comment("commit via PYTHON1")
            trans.apply()

You can verify the comment in cli

admin@ncs# show configuration commit list

Hello @AlaeddineJebnoun90723 and @Nabsch,

Would you please provide a link to the MAAPI API?  I'm not familiar with this API and am interested in learning more about it.

Thanks!
