INCUS.SNAPSHOT.LIST(1)

πŸ’– incus-snapshot-list β€” bestie's guide to listing instance snapshots πŸ’–

okay so this is incus-snapshot-list, part of the Incus - Command line client(1) manual. It's the little command that shows you all the snapshots your instances are holding onto. Let's get into it 🫢


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

incus snapshot list [:] [flags]

no cap, that's the whole thing. <italic>:</italic> is the remote, <italic>flags</italic> are the flags πŸ’…


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Description: List instance snapshots. That's the vibe. It lists them. Iconic behaviour honestly.

Default column layout: nTEs

πŸ“Š Columns πŸ“Š

The -c option takes a comma separated list of arguments that control which snapshots attributes to output when displaying in table or csv format. So like, you pick what you wanna see, bestie.

Column arguments are either pre-defined shorthand chars (see below), or (extended) config keys. Both work, slay.

Commas between consecutive shorthand chars are optional. So nTEs hits exactly the same as n,T,E,s. We love flexibility.

Pre-defined column shorthand chars:

  • n β€” Name
  • T β€” Taken At
  • E β€” Expires At
  • s β€” Stateful

πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -c, --columns="nTEs" β€” Columns. Yeah the description is literally just "Columns" but yk, this is where you pick your shorthand chars or extended config keys. Go off.
  • -f, --format="table" β€” Format. Your choices are csv, json, table, yaml, compact, markdown. And the lil bonus move: use suffix ,noheader to disable headers and ,header to enable it if missing, e.g. csv,header. chef's kiss πŸ“

πŸ‘‘ OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS πŸ‘‘

These come from the parent command, not from this one, but they still work here. Periodt.

  • --debug[=false] β€” Show all debug messages πŸ›
  • --explain[=false] β€” If the command is valid, explain its parsed arguments instead of running it. It's like a vibe check for your args before you commit πŸ’€

  • -h, --help[=false] β€” Print help
