/**
 * \file zookeeper.h
 * \brief ZooKeeper functions and definitions.
 *
 * ZooKeeper is a network service that may be backed by a cluster of
 * synchronized servers. The data in the service is represented as a tree
 * of data nodes. Each node has data, children, an ACL, and status information.
 * The data for a node is read and write in its entirety.
 *
 * ZooKeeper clients can leave watches when they queries the data or children
 * of a node. If a watch is left, that client will be notified of the change.
 * The notification is a one time trigger. Subsequent chances to the node will
 * not trigger a notification unless the client issues a query with the watch
 * flag set. If the client is ever disconnected from the service, the watches do
 * not need to be reset. The client automatically resets the watches.
 *
 * When a node is created, it may be flagged as an ephemeral node. Ephemeral
 * nodes are automatically removed when a client session is closed or when
 * a session times out due to inactivity (the ZooKeeper runtime fills in
 * periods of inactivity with pings). Ephemeral nodes cannot have children.
 *
 * ZooKeeper clients are identified by a server assigned session id. For
 * security reasons The server
 * also generates a corresponding password for a session. A client may save its
 * id and corresponding password to persistent storage in order to use the
 * session across program invocation boundaries.

/**
 * \brief create a node synchronously and collect stat details.
 *
 * This method will create a node in ZooKeeper. A node can only be created if
 * it does not already exist. The Create Mode affects the creation of nodes.
 * If ZOO_EPHEMERAL mode is chosen, the node will automatically get removed if the
 * client session goes away. If ZOO_CONTAINER flag is set, a container node will be
 * created. For ZOO_*_SEQUENTIAL modes, a unique monotonically increasing
 * sequence number is appended to the path name. The sequence number is always fixed
 * length of 10 digits, 0 padded. When ZOO_*_WITH_TTL is selected, a ttl node will be
 * created.
 *
 * \param zh the zookeeper handle obtained by a call to \ref zookeeper_init
 * \param path The name of the node. Expressed as a file name with slashes
 * separating ancestors of the node.
 * \param value The data to be stored in the node.
 * \param valuelen The number of bytes in data. To set the data to be NULL use
 * value as NULL and valuelen as -1.
 * \param acl The initial ACL of the node. The ACL must not be null or empty.
 * \param mode this parameter should be one of the Create Modes.
 * \param ttl the value of ttl in milliseconds. It must be positive for ZOO_*_WITH_TTL
 *    Create modes, otherwise it must be -1.
 * \param path_buffer Buffer which will be filled with the path of the
 *    new node (this might be different than the supplied path
 *    because of the ZOO_SEQUENCE flag).  The path string will always be
 *    null-terminated. This parameter may be NULL if path_buffer_len = 0.
 * \param path_buffer_len Size of path buffer; if the path of the new
 *    node (including space for the null terminator) exceeds the buffer size,
 *    the path string will be truncated to fit.  The actual path of the
 *    new node in the server will not be affected by the truncation.
 *    The path string will always be null-terminated.
