YDK for XML Serialize/Deserialize

[brfoster]

I was able to get YDK-gen to build my SDK based on YANG models.  I'm doing a simple test and I just want YDK to spit out the XML.  This gives tracebacks...

from ydk.models.cisco_customer import Data

from ydk.services import CodecService

from ydk.providers import NetconfServiceProvider

myservice = CodecService()

myprovider = NetconfServiceProvider()

foo = Data()

cust = foo.Customer()

cust.name = "Bill"

print(myservice.encode(myprovider, foo))

C:\Users\brfoster\virtualenvs\epnm_testing\Scripts\python.exe C:/Users/brfoster/PycharmProjects/EPNM/tests/testydk.py

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "C:/Users/brfoster/PycharmProjects/EPNM/tests/testydk.py", line 2, in <module>

    from ydk.models.cisco_customer import Data

    from ydk.types import Empty, YList, YLeafList, DELETE, Decimal64, FixedBitsDict

    from builtins import str

ImportError: No module named builtins

Hi Jonathan,

We recently added support for python3, which initially introduced a dependency on the future package. We are currently working to remove this dependency, but for the time being, please install the future package https://pypi.python.org/pypi/future.

That fixed it, thanks!
