Dear all,
I am trying to summarize the conclusions of this email thread, in light
of the draft-cardona-claise-onion-yang-coverage
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-cardona-claise-onion-yang-coverage/> presentation
in the NETMOD meeting:
- We want to have instance examples next to the IETF YANG module. Granted
- We want to have those instance examples WITHIN the same document as
the YANG module. I guess so.
This is ideal but is it always possible, because there might be
different contexts?
See Rob Wilton's comment in the IETF 124 NETMOD meeting minutes
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/minutes-124-netmod-202511071430/>
- I understand that the community would like a different tags for the
instances (next to CODE BEGINS/END)
And we have some in XML, great.
- What I am not sure: do we also need the tags for the text draft/RFC
(next to XML)?
Where I would appreciate the help (of someone more clever that I): how
to practically add those tags, when you start from editing markdown draft.
A (process) example would be ideal.
Thanks and regards, Benoit

I find that the ASCII-armor CODE BEGINS/CODE ENDS is an undesirable relic from
days before XML-based RFCs. Now that RFCs are XML-native, better constructs
are possible. I do not think that extracting from Text-formatted RFCs is
necessary. Being able to extract from just XML is fine. Therefore I do NOT
support adding support for code-tags for examples.
RFCXML has markers= and related attributes name= etc. [1]; you never type CODE
BEGINS/ENDS.
There is no need to ever apply heuristics to pull source from plaintext
renderings any more.
Try kramdown-rfc-extract-sourcecode on the XML if you need a tool.
Tryhttps://tzi.de/~cabo/i-d or /rfc for a prototype of the “RFC filesystem” I’m
proposing (not recently updated though).
Grüße, Carsten
