LIBYANG_API_DECL LY_ERR lyplg_add

(

const char *

pathname

)

Manually load a plugin file.

Note, that a plugin can be loaded only if there is at least one context. The loaded plugins are connected with the existence of a context. When all the contexts are destroyed, all the plugins are unloaded.

Parameters

[in]

pathname

Path to the plugin file. It can contain types or extensions plugins, both are accepted and correctly loaded.

Returns

LY_SUCCESS if the file contains valid plugin compatible with the library version.

LY_EDENIED in case there is no context and the plugin cannot be loaded.

LY_EINVAL when pathname is NULL or the plugin contains invalid content for this libyang version.

LY_ESYS when the plugin file cannot be loaded.

LIBYANG_API_DECL LY_ERR lyplg_add_extension_plugin	(	struct ly_ctx *	ctx,
		uint32_t	version,
		const struct lyplg_ext_record *	recs
	)

Manually load extension plugins from memory.

Note, that a plugin can be loaded only if there is at least one context. The loaded plugins are connected with the existence of a context. When all the contexts are destroyed, all the plugins are unloaded.

Parameters

[in]	ctx	The context to which the plugin should be associated with. If NULL, the plugin is considered to be shared between all existing contexts.
[in]	version	The version of plugin records.
[in]	recs	An array of plugin records provided by the plugin implementation. The array must be terminated by a zeroed record.

Returns

LY_SUCCESS if the plugins with compatible version were successfully loaded.

LY_EDENIED in case there is no context and the plugin cannot be loaded.

LY_EINVAL when recs is NULL or the plugin contains invalid content for this libyang version.

LIBYANG_API_DECL LY_ERR lyplg_add_type_plugin	(	struct ly_ctx *	ctx,
		uint32_t	version,
		const struct lyplg_type_record *	recs
	)

Manually load type plugins from memory.

Note, that a plugin can be loaded only if there is at least one context. The loaded plugins are connected with the existence of a context. When all the contexts are destroyed, all the plugins are unloaded.

Parameters

[in]	ctx	The context to which the plugin should be associated with. If NULL, the plugin is considered to be shared between all existing contexts.
[in]	version	The version of plugin records.
[in]	recs	An array of plugin records provided by the plugin implementation. The array must be terminated by a zeroed record.

Returns

LY_SUCCESS if the plugins with compatible version were successfully loaded.

LY_EDENIED in case there is no context and the plugin cannot be loaded.

LY_EINVAL when recs is NULL or the plugin contains invalid content for this libyang version.
