- As expected the parsing of string, originating form XML or JSON is done by the same code and the results are identical to those for XML Data Parsing
Conclusion
Pros
- EXTENSIVE - The YangTools model parser is comprehensive and covers all possible Yang Language elements we might require
- AVAILABLE - Extensively used throughout ONAP and ODL projects (able to convert to Java objects, code & API). These parsers are already used in many ONAP platform projects.
- MATURE CODE - Mature code, dates back to 2013 with contributions from many companies including Cisco and Redhat and Pantheon Tech. (No need for licenses, these are also open source Yang parser). ODL is open source.
- VALIDATION - Testing with parsing Parsing of JSON and XML data with validated for a a (parsed) model included. Files to objects and vice versa is possible. Model violation & compilation validation is available.
- OBJECTIVES - Meets our two high-level requirements & objectives. Parse models from SDC into Java objects relate to persistence of data. Parsing of documents compliant to those schemas.
Cons
- LEARNING CURVE - Due to its completeness it also is a complicated piece of software which will take some time to get familiar with.
- DOCUMENTATION - Documentation out of date, this page hopes to address that somewhat
