💅 LXC-PROFILE-DEVICE-GET(1) — you're in the LXD command line client bestie ✨

Okay so real talk, this page lives inside the LXD command line client manual (that's the fancy manual name, not me being dramatic), and it's all about one tiny little subcommand that goes digging for device config values. Buckle up, it's short but it's iconic 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

lxc-profile-device-get — get values for device configuration keys. That's it. That's the whole job. She's focused, she's demure, she's not doing extra 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

lxc profile device get [:]   [flags]

Yeah, that's the whole thing. Note the [:] sitting there all mysterious, and the [flags] doing its usual "there are options, go look" thing 🦋

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Description: Get values for device configuration keys

(Yes, the page literally labels its own description "Description:" — autogenerated manpages are so unserious 😭)

So what she does: you point her at a device config key and she hands you the value. That's the vibe check. Lowkey the most straightforward subcommand of the whole lxc profile device family and honestly? We respect a girl who knows her lane 👑

🔥 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🔥

These aren't even hers, she inherited them from her parent command, nepotism baby ✨ but like, in a useful way:

  • --debug[=false] — show all debug messages. All of them. The whole lore dump. Ngl it's a lot of text but sometimes you need the receipts 💀
  • --force-local[=false] — force using the local unix socket. Making her stay local, no long-distance relationships 🫶
  • -h, --help[=false] — print help. When in doubt, ask the page itself, she's very forthcoming 🌸
  • --project="" — override the source project. (And yeah, the original literally has two stray backticks glued onto the end of that sentence: `` — autogenerated chaos, we love to see it 💀)
  • -q, --quiet[=false] — don't show progress information. Silence. Peace. ASMR mode 🧚
  • --sub-commands[=false] — use with help or --help to view sub-commands. Yes she has lore, yes there are more layers 👀
  • -v, --verbose[=false] — show all information messages. She will tell you everything, bestie, and I mean everything 😭
  • --version[=false] — print version number. Identity check. Who is she? A legend, but also a number 💜
