Public bug reported: It would be nice if cloud-init query could give simple cli access to the on-disk merged cloud-config.
Use cases that this would help: - customers wondering ultimately what default_user was used during cloud-init setup - simple CLI to view what config modules are configured active on a given boot - datasource configuration passed to cloud-init - network configuration passed to cloud-init We sometimes get questions in IRC for non-ubuntu distributions or unofficial images where our response is to look in /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg and cloud.cfg.d to see what modules/users are configured. it'd be fairly simple to instrument this in the existing cloud-init query CLI. ** Affects: cloud-init Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Summary changed: - instance-data: surface default user in instance-data.json + instance-data: surface merged cloud-config in instance-data.json ** Summary changed: - instance-data: surface merged cloud-config in instance-data.json + instance-data: surface merged cloud-config through cloud-init query command -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
