outputs

After you create a stack using a template, all objects defined in the template will be created. To view the deployment results more intuitively, write the results in the output section of the template. Generally, common outputs include the access address+port number, application URL, and initial account password.

The outputs section is optional and defines the output parameters during stack running. Each output parameter must have a unique name.

Format of the outputs section:

<Output parameter name>:
  description: <Description>
  value: <Value>

value is used to define an output value. It can be a text, string, or number. The value can be concatenated by the concat and get_attribute built-in functions, or be obtained from input parameters.

NOTE:

A parameter that begins with a hyphen (-) can be considered as an array.

Example configuration of outputs:

outputs:
  ecs-eip:
    description: elastic IP address of the ECS
    value:
      get_attribute:
        - myecs
        - publicIps
