Donald Hunter 1bf70e6c3a tools/net/ynl: improve async notification handling ... The notification handling in ynl is currently very simple, using sleep() to wait a period of time and then handling all the buffered messages in a single batch. This patch changes the notification handling so that messages are processed as they are received. This makes it possible to use ynl as a library that supplies notifications in a timely manner. - Change check_ntf() to be a generator that yields 1 notification at a time and blocks until a notification is available. - Use the --sleep parameter to set an alarm and exit when it fires. This means that the CLI has the same interface, but notifications get printed as they are received: ./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec <SPEC> --subscribe <TOPIC> [ --sleep <SECS> ] Here is an example python snippet that shows how to use ynl as a library for receiving notifications: ynl = YnlFamily(f"{dir}/rt_route.yaml") ynl.ntf_subscribe('rtnlgrp-ipv4-route') for event in ynl.check_ntf(): handle(event) Signed-off-by: Donald Hunter <donald.hunter@gmail.com> Tested-by: Kory Maincent <kory.maincent@bootlin.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20241018093228.25477-1-donald.hunter@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>		2024-10-24 09:55:03 +02:00
