netconf-java
============
**A modernized Java library for NETCONF (now Java 17‑compatible)**
Java library for NETCONF
SUPPORT
=======
This software is not officially supported by Juniper Networks, but by a team dedicated to helping customers,
partners, and the development community. To report bug-fixes, issues, suggestions, please raise issues
or even better submit pull requests on GitHub.
REQUIREMENTS
============
* [OpenJDK 17](https://openjdk.org/projects/jdk/17/) or later
* [Maven](https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi) if you want to build using `mvn` [Supported from v2.1.1].
* [Gradle 8+](https://gradle.org/releases/) if you prefer a Gradle build (`./gradlew build`)
Building
========
You can build the project using **Maven** or **Gradle**.
### Maven
```bash
mvn clean package
```
### Gradle
```bash
./gradlew clean build
```
(The wrapper script downloads the correct Gradle version automatically.)
Releases
========
Releases contain source code only. Due to changing JDK licensing, jar files are not released.
User may download the source code and compile it with desired JDK version.
* Instructions to build
* Download Source Code for the required release
* Compile the code and build the jar using your chosen JDK version
* Use the jar file
* Instructions to build using `mvn`
* Download Source Code for the required release
* Compile the code and build the jar using `mvn package`
* Use the jar file from (source to netconf-java)/netconf-java/target
* Use `mvn versions:display-dependency-updates` to identify possible target versions for dependencies
=======
v2.2.0
------
* Java 17 baseline; compiled with `--release 17`
* Gradle build added alongside Maven
* SpotBugs upgraded to 6.x
* Added **:confirmed-commit:1.1** support (`commitConfirm(timeout, persist)` and `cancelCommit(persistId)`)
* Added **killSession(String)** helper for RFC 6241 §7.9
* Auto‑inject base 1.1 capability in <hello> exchange
* Gradle wrapper committed; GitHub Actions now builds Maven *and* Gradle
* Expanded Javadoc and SpotBugs clean‑up
v2.1.1
------
* Fixed `mvn` build issues
v2.0.0
------
* Replaced the ssh library with [JSch](http://www.jcraft.com/jsch/)
* Adds support for new ssh crypto algorithms
* More modern ssh implementation
* Added support for importing and building the library with maven
* Added FindBugs code testing to maven build
This is a breaking change to the API. New Device objects are now created using a builder.
Example:
```Java
Device device = Device.builder().hostName("hostname")
.userName("username")
.password("password")
.connectionTimeout(2000)
.hostKeysFileName("hostKeysFileName")
.build();
```
SYNOPSIS
========
```Java
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;
import net.juniper.netconf.NetconfException;
import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
import net.juniper.netconf.XML;
import net.juniper.netconf.Device;
public class ShowInterfaces {
public static void main(String args[]) throws NetconfException,
ParserConfigurationException, SAXException, IOException {
//Create device
Device device = Device.builder()
.hostName("hostname")
.userName("username")
.password("password")
.connectionTimeout(2000)
.hostKeysFileName("hostKeysFileName")
.build();
device.connect();
//Send RPC and receive RPC Reply as XML
XML rpc_reply = device.executeRPC("get-interface-information");
/* OR
* device.executeRPC("");
* OR
* device.executeRPC("");
*/
//Print the RPC-Reply and close the device.
System.out.println(rpc_reply);
device.close();
}
}
```
