Overview

Example (Watch_help)

package main

import (
	"os"

	"github.com/aws-cloudformation/rain/internal/cmd/watch"
)

func main() {
	os.Args = []string{
		os.Args[0],
		"--help",
	}

	watch.Cmd.Execute()
}

Output:

Repeatedly displays the status of a CloudFormation stack. Useful for watching the progress of a deployment started from outside of Rain.

Usage:
  watch <stack>

Flags:
  -h, --help   help for watch
  -w, --wait   wait for changes to begin rather than refusing to watch an unchanging stack
