Listing definitions and instances
Learn how to list layer instances and definitions.
You can list definitions and instances using layerform list definitions
and layerform list instances
, respectively.
Listing definitions is useful usually after you have provisioned layers using layerform configure
. By listing layers, you’ll be able to confirm that all of them have been provisioned correctly. Additionally, all developers that list definitions will understand which layers are available to them, and what are each layer’s dependencies.
$ layerform list definitions
NAME DEPENDENCIES
eks
elasticstack eks
Listing layer instances is useful after spawning or killing a layer. By listing instances you’ll be able to see whether the spawn
or kill
commands worked, and what is the layer’s state.
$ layerform list instances
INSTANCE NAME LAYER NAME DEPENDENCIES STATUS
default eks alive
example elasticstack eks=default alive
