Annotation

class ydk.path.Annotation(namespace, name, value)

An annotation has a namespace and a name and an associated value. Annotations are not defined in the YANG model and hence just provide a means of hanging some useful data to DataNode. For example netconf edit-config rpc operation uses the annotation nc:operation (nc refers to the netconf namespace) on the data nodes to describe the kind of operation one needs to perform on the given DataNode.

Parameters:
  • namespace – (str) Annotation namespace.
  • name – (str) Annotation name.
  • value – (str) Annotation value.

Example usage:

>>> from ydk.path import Annotation
>>> ann = Annotation('ietf-netconf', 'operation', 'merge')
