Detailed Description

A simple parser.

This class is intended to be a simpler replacement for DhcpConfigParser. This class has been initially created to facilitate DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 servers' configuration parsing. Thus examples provided herein are related to DHCP configuration. Nevertheless, this is a generic class to be used in other modules too.

The simplification comes from several factors:

no build/commit nonsense. There's a single step: CfgStorage parse(ConstElementPtr json) that converts JSON configuration into an object and returns it.
no state kept. This greatly simplifies the parsers (no contexts, no child parsers list, no separate storage for uint32, strings etc. In fact, this base class is purely static. However, some derived classes may store some state. Implementors are advised to store as little state as possible.
no optional parameters (all are mandatory). This simplifies the parser, but introduces a new step before parsing where we insert the default values into client configuration before parsing. This is actually a good thing, because we now have a clear picture of the default parameters as they're defined in a single place (the DhcpConfigParser had the defaults spread out in multiple files in multiple directories).

◆ deriveParams()

size_t isc::data::SimpleParser::deriveParams	(	isc::data::ConstElementPtr	parent,
		isc::data::ElementPtr	child,
		const ParamsList &	params
	)

static

Derives (inherits) parameters from parent scope to a child.

This method derives parameters from the parent scope to the child, if there are no values specified in the child scope. For example, this method can be used to derive timers from global scope (e.g. for the whole DHCPv6 server) to a subnet scope. This method checks if the child scope doesn't have more specific values defined. If it doesn't, then the value from parent scope is copied over.

Parameters

parent	scope to copy from (e.g. global)
child	scope to copy from (e.g. subnet)
params	names of the parameters to copy

Returns: number of parameters copied

◆ getAddress()

IOAddress isc::data::SimpleParser::getAddress	(	const ConstElementPtr &	scope,

static

Returns a IOAddress parameter from a scope.

Parameters

scope	specified parameter will be extracted from this scope
name	name of the parameter

Returns: an IOAddress representing the value of the parameter

Exceptions

DhcpConfigError if the parameter is not there or is not of appropriate type (or its conversion to IOAddress fails due to not being a proper address).
