Implement config write API for Python
Closed, ResolvedPublicENHANCEMENT
Actions

Description

Right now we only have config read API for Python, and no write API. If used with care, it can be implemented by saving the environment variables given by cli-shell-api getSessionEnv and using it for calls to my_set, my_delete etc.

s = vyos.configsession.ConfigSession(os.getpid(), app="vyos-http-api")
s.set(["system", "host-name"], value="vyos")
s.delete(["system", "options", "reboot-on-panic"])
s.comment(["system", "host-name"], value="Haha, I can change host-name via an API")
s.commit()
