cflogger CloudFormation streaming logger for stack events. It logs single stack events in given time. Not gives all events history. Suitable for tracking stack build processes in ci/cd pipelines.
Here's a cflogger demo:
Warning You must set AWS region. Otherwise you get error.
# Follows a single stack events occurring after the specified time (UTC+0).
$ cflogger --stack-name test --since "2022-12-15 15:00" --region eu-central-1
# Follows events from the time it was run until events finish.
$ cflogger --stack-name test --region eu-central-1
# Select stack id.
$ cflogger --stack-name "arn:aws:cloudformation:eu-central-1:890724537041:stack/test/1448c0d9-7173-114d-af33-0ac9xyzd9fb36" --region eu-central-1
# Get stack-id from aws cloudformation command output and follow stream.
$ aws cloudformation update-stack --stack-name test --template-body file:///Users/omer/sample-template.yml | cflogger --region eu-central-1 --stack-name -
# Define timeout in minutes for cflogger.
$ cflogger --stack-name test --timeout 20 --region eu-central-1
When using the cflogger you'll need your AWS credentials to authenticate with AWS services. cflogger supports multiple methods of supporting these credentials.
Environment Credentials - Set of environment variables that are useful when sub processes are created for specific roles.
Shared Credentials file (~/.aws/credentials) - This file stores your credentials based on a profile name and is useful for local development.
