5.2.4 Stack information list
Function
This plugin outputs an information list of stacks managed in an AWS CloudFormation environment to a CSV file on an AWS control server (execution target server).
The character encoding of the output file is the default encoding of the system on the AWS control server (execution target server).
This plugin assumes the following server:
- AWS control server (execution target server)
A server on which AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell (abbreviated hereafter to "AWS Tools") is installed. AWS Tools transfers the plugin to, and executes it on, this server.
The script within this plugin executes the following AWS Tools commandlet:
- Get-CFNStack
For details about AWS Tools commandlets, see the AWS document "AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell Cmdlet Reference".
The items in a CSV file that is output are shown below.
Each item is output, separated by a comma.
(a) Stack name (Header name: StackName)
(b) Stack creation time (Header name: CreatedTime)
(c) Stack status (Header name: Status)
(d) Stack description (Header name: Description)
Use situation
This plugin can be used to obtain information about stacks managed in an AWS CloudFormation environment.
