ECACCE...NT-LIST(1p)

💖 ECACCE...NT-LIST(1p) — or, how to snoop on your events, bestie 💖

okay so real talk: this is the ecaccess-event-list page from the Perl User Contributed docs, and it is literally the cutest little utility for seeing which ECaccess Events your ECMWF user identifier is allowed to touch. no cap. let's get into it 🦋

---

✨ NAME ✨

ecaccess-event-list — list all the events that are available to you, bb 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

ecaccess-event-list -version|-help|-manual

ecaccess-event-list [-debug] [event-id|event-name]

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

so basically? this command lists all the ECaccess Events that are available to your ECMWF user identifier. every single one you've got access to, laid out for you. iconic behaviour, honestly.

and if you pass an event-id or an event-name as an argument? then it's not a list anymore, it's a whole deep dive — it displays all the information related to that one event. it's giving main character energy for a single event. obsessed 💖

---

🧚 ARGUMENTS 🧚

• event-id|event-name (optional) — the identifier or the name of the Event you want the details for. skip it and you just get the whole list, no drama.

---

💅 OPTIONS 💅

• -version — shows the version number and then exits. bye 👋
• -help — prints a brief help message and exits. the lil quickie version.
• -manual — prints the manual page and exits. the full ✨ lore ✨.
• -retry count — the number of SSL connection retries per 5s to ECMWF. and listen, this one's specific: it only applies to the initial SSL connection that the command initiates to the ECMWF server. it does not apply to all the subsequent requests made afterward, because it's mainly targeting errors that can happen from time to time during the SSL handshake. the default is no retry. so if you don't set it, you don't get retries. periodt.
• -debug — displays the SOAP and SSL messages being exchanged. full receipts, every single one 👀

---

🔥 EXAMPLES 🔥

ecaccess-event-list an00h000

gives you the information related to the event-name an00h000. one event, all the tea 🍓

ecaccess-event-list

lists all the events available to your ECMWF user identifier. the whole roster, no filter 🌈

🌟 SEE ALSO 🌟

you are so gonna want to meet the rest of the friend group:

• ecaccess-event-grant
• ecaccess-event-clear
• ecaccess-event-send
• ecaccess-event-delete
• ecaccess-event-create
• and of course, ecaccess 💜

---

heads up bestie: -retry is only for that first SSL handshake, not the follow-ups. don't come for me when your retries don't apply to later requests — the manpage said it first, i just said it cuter 💀

and that's the whole page, fr fr. this beauty ships as part of perl v5.40.1, dated 2025-10-22, and it lives its best life as ECACCE...NT-LIST(1p) in the User Contributed Perl Documentation. mwah 💋✨
