Example of error reporting

[pdumais]

Could we get an example of error reporting with restconf? For example, within onAction, if we'd like to return a 401 with a payload as defined in section 7.1 of rfc8040 ?

I just created this doc, should be what you need. https://github.com/freeconf/restconf/wiki/Advanced#returning-401-409-and-400-class-errors

Thanks. So would restconf take care of filling put thw payload such as
`HTTP/1.1 409 Conflict
Date: Thu, 26 Jan 2017 20:56:30 GMT
Server: example-server
Content-Type: application/yang-data+json

  {
    "ietf-restconf:errors" : {
      "error" : [
        {
          "error-type" : "protocol",
          "error-tag" : "lock-denied",
          "error-message" : "Lock failed; lock already held"
        }
      ]
    }
  }`

? Or would we need to set the raw json to do this?

oops, Freeconf/Restconf currently doesn't set that payload beyond plain text response of the error message text and the HTTP status code. This would have to be added, BUT it wouldn't be that hard at all. Can you create an issue and pointers to the spec?
