Re: [netmod] JSON encoding for presence container (empty)

[Ram P <[e-mail]>]

The Yang definition:
container system {
       description
         "Contains various system parameters.";
       container services {
         description
           "Configure externally available services.";
         container "ssh" {
           presence "Enables SSH";
           description
             "SSH service-specific configuration.";
           // more leafs, containers, and stuff here...
         }
       }
     }
So for this XML:
     <system>
       <services>
         <ssh/>
       </services>
     </system>
Should the JSON encoding should be like below?
"system" : {   "services" : {       "ssh": {}    }}

The answer depends on how <ssh/> is defined. If it is a YANG leaf of
type empty, then section 6.9 applies. If it is defined as a container,
then section 5.2 applies. Once you have the YANG definition, then RFC
7951 may have the answer.
