Abstract:
1. A method for creating a linked list for executing a plurality of scripts on a networking device, the method comprising: receiving a set of nodes, each comprising a script defining functionality of the networking device, the set of nodes including at least one of a leaf node that is an standalone node with no child node and a nugget node that includes one or more child nodes, each child node being a nugget or leaf node; generating a script by coupling the nodes in a nodal structure based on desired order of execution; determining an execution path through a subset of nodes in the nodal structure at least in part based on one or more input values of defined input properties; compiling, by a processor, the subset of nodes into a linked list of operations, the linked list following the execution path; and executing the path of operations within the compiled linked list of operations.
