Question:
i have created a stack in cloudformatin and wants to get the output.
My code is:
|
1 2 3 |
c = a.describe_stacks('Stack_id') print c |
Returns an object
|
1 2 |
Answer:
The call to describe_stacks should return a list of Stack objects, not a single StackSummary object. Let’s just walk through a complete example to avoid confusion.
First, do something like this:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 |
import boto.cloudformation conn = boto.cloudformation.connect_to_region('us-west-2') # or your favorite region stacks = conn.describe_stacks('MyStackID') if len(stacks) == 1: stack = stacks[0] else: # Raise an exception or something because your stack isn't there |
At this point the variable
stack is a Stack object. The outputs of the stack are available as the outputs attribute of stack. This attribute will contain a list of Output objects which, in turn, have a key, value, and description attribute. So, this would print all of the outputs:|
1 2 3 |
for output in stack.outputs: print('%s=%s (%s)' % (output.key, output.value, output.description)) |
