Stateful management of network device configurations

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
• receiving first configuration data associated with a network device, the first configuration data comprising a Yet Another Next Generation (YANG) payload;
• determining a first subset of the YANG payload that is associated with a first network configuration database;
• determining a first database transaction, wherein the first database transaction represents one or more database updates to the first network configuration database that is determined based on a first state of the network device and one or more configuration requirements represented by the first subset;
• discarding the first database transaction;
• determining second configuration data based on the first database transaction, the second configuration data comprising a command line representation of the YANG payload;
• and
• providing the second configuration data to a system, the system configured to display the command line representation to a user.

One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

• receiving first configuration data associated with a network device, the first configuration data comprising a Yet Another Next Generation (YANG) payload;
• determining a first subset of the YANG payload that is associated with a first network configuration database;
• determining a first database transaction, wherein the first database transaction represents one or more database updates to the first network configuration database that is determined based on a first state of the network device and one or more configuration requirements represented by the first subset;
• discarding the first database transaction;
• determining second configuration data based on the first database transaction, the second configuration data comprising a command line representation of the YANG payload;
• and
• providing the second configuration data to a system, the system configured to display the command line representation to a user.
