Dumping/loading schema in binary format

[pkmuthu83]

Is it possible to dump the libyang schema/context (which is already loaded in memory) in LYB format, similar to how data is dumped ? Cannot find API for it, hence asking. Also, we want to subsequently load the schema in binary format rather than text format. Thanks !

There is no such format for YANG modules, only YANG and YIN.

Thanks. I am looking for a way to load yang schema files really fast. If we have large number of yang files and we parsed the yang files once into libyang context, is there a way to dump the in-memory context in a format which can be loaded very fast the next time..

No, there is no such possibility. But we are currently working on a feature that should allow this although it is still months away from being ready.
