bootc-status - Man Page

bootc status [--format] [--format-version] [--booted] [-h|--help]

Display status

If standard output is a terminal, this will output a description of the bootc system state. If standard output is not a terminal, output a YAML-formatted object using a schema intended to match a Kubernetes resource that describes the state of the booted system.

## Parsing output via programs

Either the default YAML format or `--format=json` can be used. Do not attempt to explicitly parse the output of `--format=humanreadable` as it will very likely change over time.

## Programmatically detecting whether the system is deployed via bootc

Invoke e.g. `bootc status --json`, and check if `status.booted` is not `null`.

--format=FORMAT

The output format

Possible values:

• humanreadable: Output in Human Readable format
• yaml: Output in YAML format
• json: Output in JSON format

--format-version=FORMAT_VERSION

The desired format version. There is currently one supported version, which is exposed as both `0` and `1`. Pass this option to explicitly request it; it is possible that another future version 2 or newer will be supported in the future

--booted

Only display status for the booted deployment
