Request Syntax

stack_iterator = cloudformation.stacks.all()
Return type:

filter(**kwargs)#

Creates an iterable of all Stack resources in the collection filtered by kwargs passed to method. A Stack collection will include all resources by default if no filters are provided, and extreme caution should be taken when performing actions on all resources.

See also: AWS API Documentation

Request Syntax

stack_iterator = cloudformation.stacks.filter(
    StackName='string',
    NextToken='string'
)
Parameters:

  • StackName (string) –

    Note

    If you don’t pass a parameter to StackName, the API returns a response that describes all resources in the account, which can impact performance. This requires ListStacks and DescribeStacks permissions.

    Consider using the ListStacks API if you’re not passing a parameter to StackName.

    The IAM policy below can be added to IAM policies when you want to limit resource-level permissions and avoid returning a response when no parameter is sent in the request:

    { “Version”: “2012-10-17”, “Statement”: [{ “Effect”: “Deny”, “Action”: “cloudformation:DescribeStacks”, “NotResource”: “arn:aws:cloudformation:::stack//” }] }

    The name or the unique stack ID that’s associated with the stack, which aren’t always interchangeable:

    • Running stacks: You can specify either the stack’s name or its unique stack ID.

    • Deleted stacks: You must specify the unique stack ID.

    Default: There is no default value.

  • NextToken (string) – A string that identifies the next page of stacks that you want to retrieve.

Return type:

list(cloudformation.Stack)

Returns:

A list of Stack resources

limit(**kwargs)#

Creates an iterable up to a specified amount of Stack resources in the collection.

See also: AWS API Documentation

Request Syntax

stack_iterator = cloudformation.stacks.limit(
    count=123
)
Parameters:

count (integer) – The limit to the number of resources in the iterable.

Return type:

list(cloudformation.Stack)

Returns:

A list of Stack resources

page_size(**kwargs)#

Creates an iterable of all Stack resources in the collection, but limits the number of items returned by each service call by the specified amount.

)
Parameters:

count (integer) – The number of items returned by each service call

Return type:
