describe-virtual-router¶

Description¶

Describes an existing virtual router.

Synopsis¶

  describe-virtual-router
--mesh-name <value>
[--mesh-owner <value>]
--virtual-router-name <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options¶

--mesh-name (string)

The name of the service mesh that the virtual router resides in.

--mesh-owner (string)

The Amazon Web Services IAM account ID of the service mesh owner. If the account ID is not your own, then it’s the ID of the account that shared the mesh with your account. For more information about mesh sharing, see Working with shared meshes .

--virtual-router-name (string)

The name of the virtual router to describe.

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To describe a virtual router

The following describe-virtual-router example returns details about the specified virtual router.

aws appmesh describe-virtual-router \
    --mesh-name app1 \
    --virtual-router-name vrServiceB

Output:

{
    "virtualRouter": {
        "meshName": "app1",

        "spec": {
            "listeners": [
                {
                    "portMapping": {
                        "port": 80,
                        "protocol": "http"

        },
        "status": {
            "status": "ACTIVE"
        },
        "virtualRouterName": "vrServiceB"
    }
}

Output¶

virtualRouter -> (structure)

The full description of your virtual router.

meshName -> (string)

The name of the service mesh that the virtual router resides in.

metadata -> (structure)

The associated metadata for the virtual router.

arn -> (string)

The full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the resource.

createdAt -> (timestamp)

The Unix epoch timestamp in seconds for when the resource was created.

lastUpdatedAt -> (timestamp)
