VM::EC...Output(3pm)

✨ VM::EC2::ConsoleOutput ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the VM::EC2::ConsoleOutput page (yes it's a (3pm) perl manpage, iykyk) — it's the object that describes console output from an Amazon EC2 instance 💖

---

🎀 NAME 🎀

VM::EC2::ConsoleOutput — an object describing console output from an Amazon EC2 instance. periodt.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

use VM::EC2;

$ec2      = VM::EC2->new(...);
$instance = $ec2->describe_instance(-instance_id=>'i-123456');

my $out = $instance->console_output;

print $out,"\n";
my $ts       = $out->timestamp;
my $instance = $out->instanceId;

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So this object is literally the glow-up of the output from the console of a Amazon EC2 instance ✨ The instance can be running, pending or stopped — all three vibes are valid here 💅

You get one of these handed to you by VM::EC2->get_console_output(), and also by VM::EC2::Instance->console_output. two paths, same slay 🫶

ngl if you want the methods that every VM::EC2 object shares, go look at VM::EC2::Generic — that's where the communal stuff lives 💜

---

🔥 METHODS 🔥

these object methods are supported, no cap:

• requestId — the ID of the request that generated this object
• instanceId — the ID of the instance that generated this output
• timestamp — the time that this output was generated
• output — the actual text of the console output

---

💀 STRING OVERLOADING 💀

the way that this object just becomes its output when you use it in a string context… iconic 😭 it acts exactly as if its output() method was called, so you can print it or search it directly. no extra steps, main character energy 💖
