Creating a new get cm handle endpoint.
REST layer
- nmcp.yml
- New endpoint for retrieveCmHandleByName to retrieve cm handle details by the cm handles name/id.
- NetworkComProxyController.java
- New method retrieveCmHandleByName() which calls a new method getCmHandleDetails from NetworkCmProxyDataService
- NetworkCmProxyController.groovy
- Add test for scenario above.
Service Layer
- NetworkCmProxyDataService.java
- New getCmHandleDetails() method to be overwritten.
- NetworkCmProxyDataServiceImp.java
- Implement getCmHandleDetails and call retrieveCmHandleDetails from the persistence layer.
Persistence Layer
PersistenceCmHandleRetriever.java
- New method retrieveCmHandleDetails().
API details

Get Cm Handle details by name. | GET {ncmpRoot}/ncmp/v1/ch/PNFDemo | { |
Open Question
Currently within CPS we have two separate models for CmHandles these being CmHandle and PersistenceCmHandle. These are both very similar models, the primary difference being that persistenceCmHandle also contains references to the dmiServiceName, the dmiDataServiceName and the dmiModelServiceName as seen below.
Is it necessary to have both these models?
As PersistenceCmHandle has all the necessary fields of CmHandle, can we just modify existing code to use PerisistenceCmHandle and remove CmHandle?

PROS
- Removing potentially redundant model that is not used.
CONS
- Could be a time consuming process to refactor the code for functionality which already works
Potential Issue
If we decide to only use one model, one potentially backwards incompatible change is the property names, which differ between persistenceCmHandle and the CmHandle class.
Also should this refactoring be done as part of a separate story?
Conclusion
Add more detailed comments and rename all related cm handle models.
Renamed Models
- RestCmHandle → RestInputCmHandle (generated model)
- CmHandle → NcmpServiceCmHandle
- PersistenceCmHandle → YangModelCmHandle
- PeristenceCmHandlesList → YangModelCmHandleList
