I am unaware of any open source software that implements a complete
solution for parsing the YANG into a model, allowing the manipulation of
that models data, and configuring the system to match that model.


pyangbind (https://github.com/robshakir/pyangbind) can be used to generate
Python classes that you can bind data to.

This isn't Linux-specific, but it is possible to input a YANG model, and
some external data, and produce a usable Python data structure. 

napalm-yang (https://github.com/napalm-automation/napalm-yang) is an example
of doing this via NAPALM output via profiles that handle the parsing to/from
device native data structures, with differing levels of support:
