Yaml format support

[alshaboti]

Hi,
I made a yang model for yaml configuration file, and I want to send a yaml file instead of json file. Is it an easy task to support yaml format?
Which files need to be changed?

Thank you,

Hi alshaboti, where exactly are you looking to have YAML support? Can you give an example?

[alshaboti]

An SDN controller Faucet is running on a remote machine. Faucet is using faucet.yaml file as a configuration file. Currently, SSH is used to remotely configured fuacet.yaml file.

I would like to use gNMI to remotely update faucet yaml configuration file. However, gnmi_set only accept json format.

The gnmi_set currently accepts a json file because gNMI supports using JSON:

Unfortunately YAML is not supported in gNMI, so you would need to create your own wrapper.
