Function Documentation

struct ly_ctx* sr_acquire_context ( sr_conn_ctx_t conn)

Get the libyang context used by a connection. Can be used in an application for working with data and schemas.

Note
This context must not be changed. Also, to prevent the context from being destroyed by sysrepo, it is locked and after no longer needing the context sr_release_context() must be called. Otherwise, API functions changing the context will fail with time out.
Parameters
[in]connConnection to use.
Returns
Const libyang context.
int sr_connect ( const sr_conn_options_t  opts,
sr_conn_ctx_t **  conn 
)

Connects to the sysrepo datastore.

Note
Do not use fork(2) after creating a connection. Sysrepo internally stores the connection ID of every connection. Forking will duplicate the connection and ID resulting in a mismatch.
Parameters
[in]optsConnection options.
[out]connCreated connection.
Returns
Error code (SR_ERR_OK on success).
int sr_disconnect ( sr_conn_ctx_t conn)

Disconnect from the sysrepo datastore.

Cleans up and frees connection context allocated by sr_connect. All sessions and subscriptions started within the connection will be automatically stopped and cleaned up too.

Note
On error the function should be retried and must eventually succeed.
Parameters
[in]connConnection acquired with sr_connect call to free.
Returns
Error code (SR_ERR_OK on success).
uint32_t sr_get_content_id ( sr_conn_ctx_t conn)

Get content ID of the current YANG module set. It conforms to the requirements for ietf-yang-library "content-id" node value.

Parameters
[in]connConnection to use.
Returns
Content ID.
int sr_get_error_data ( const sr_error_info_err_t err,
uint32_t  idx,
uint32_t *  size,
const void **  data 
)

Get a specific chunk of error data.

If the error is a well-known one, it is possible to use helper utility functions instead of repeatedly calling this function.

Parameters
[in]errError structure to use.
[in]idxIndex of the error data chunk, starts at 0.
[out]sizeOptional size of the error data chunk.
[out]dataPointer to an opaque error data chunk.
Returns
Error code (SR_ERR_OK on success).
int sr_get_plugins ( sr_conn_ctx_t conn,
const char ***  ds_plugins,
const char ***  ntf_plugins 
)

Get loaded plugins of a connection.

Parameters
[in]connConnection to use.
[out]ds_pluginsOptional pointer to array of datastore plugins ended by NULL.
[out]ntf_pluginsOptional pointer to array of notification plugins ended by NULL.
Returns
Error code (SR_ERR_OK on success).
uid_t sr_get_su_uid ( void  )

Get the sysrepo SUPERUSER UID.

Returns
Sysrepo SU UID.
void sr_release_context ( sr_conn_ctx_t conn)

Release libyang context obtained from a session/connection.

Note
Must be called for each sr_acquire_context() call.
Parameters
[in]connConnection to use.

)

Set an error for a failed callback communicated back to the originator. Does not print the message.

Note
Intended for diff-check, change, RPC/action, or operational callbacks to be used on the provided session.
