Need reference for listening to Zebra ZAPI for BGP routes receive/advertise events

[sakthishanmugam02]

I am exploring FRR to support BGP use cases that go and update routes on external data plane table. Could anyone help share some samples? I looked for some language specific package, but could not find any.

Are you looking for this? https://docs.frrouting.org/en/stable-8.2/zebra.html#fpm-commands

@ton31337 I want to do it in programmatic way - I want to listen to route changes events from Zebra - if there is change, based on that events I want to update my remote data plane - Also when I tried to run some FPM command I get error as

fpm connection ip 127.0.0.1 2620
% Unknown command: fpm connection ip 127.0.0.1 2620

show zebra fpm stats
% Unknown command: show zebra fpm stats

The reason for fpm commands failure - I did not start zebra with -M fpm option in the /etc/daemons file.

Still I am looking for some code references that listen to route changes - preferably Golang one. Thanks in advance.
