NAME
pibootctl-show - pibootctl manual
SYNOPSIS
pibootctl show [-h] [-a] [--json | --yaml | --shell] name [pattern]
DESCRIPTION
Display the specified stored boot configuration, or the sub-set of its settings that match
the specified pattern.
OPTIONS
name The name of the boot configuration to display.
pattern
If specified, only displays settings with names that match the specified pattern
which may include shell globbing characters (e.g. *, ?, and simple [classes])
-h, --help
Show a brief help page for the command.
-a, --all
Include all settings, regardless of modification, in the output; by default, only
settings which have been modified are included.
--json Use JSON as the output format.
--yaml Use YAML as the output format.
--shell
Use a var=value output format suitable for the shell.
USAGE
The show command is the equivalent of the status command for stored boot configurations.
By default it displays only the settings in the specified configuration that have been
modified from their default:
$ pibootctl show 720p
+------------------------+----------------+
| Name | Value |
|------------------------+----------------|
| video.hdmi0.group | 1 (CEA) |
| video.hdmi0.mode | 4 (720p @60Hz) |
+------------------------+----------------+
The full set of settings can be displayed (which is usually several pages long, and thus
will implicitly invoke the system's pager) can be displayed with the --all option:
$ pibootctl show 720p --all
+------------------------------+----------+--------------------------------+
| Name | Modified | Value |
|------------------------------+----------+--------------------------------|
...
| video.hdmi0.enabled | | auto |
| video.hdmi0.encoding | | 0 (auto; 1 for CEA, 2 for DMT) |
| video.hdmi0.flip | | 0 (none) |
| video.hdmi0.group | x | 1 (CEA) |
| video.hdmi0.mode | x | 4 (720p @60Hz) |
| video.hdmi0.mode.force | | off |
| video.hdmi0.rotate | | 0 |
| video.hdmi0.timings | | [] |
| video.hdmi1.audio | | auto |
| video.hdmi1.boost | | 5 |
...
Note that when --all is specified, a "Modified" column is included in the output to
indicate which settings are no longer default.
As with the status command, the list of settings can be further filtered by specified a
pattern with the command. The pattern can include any of the common shell wildcard
characters:
• * for any number of any character
• ? for any single character
• [seq] for any character in seq
• [!seq] for any character not in seq
For example:
$ pibootctl show --all 720p i2c.*
+-------------+----------+--------+
| Name | Modified | Value |
|-------------+----------+--------|
| i2c.baud | | 100000 |
| i2c.enabled | | off |
+-------------+----------+--------+
For developers wishing to build on top of pibootctl, options are provided to produce the
output in JSON (--json), YAML (--yaml), and shell-friendly (--shell). These combine with
all aforementioned options as expected:
$ pibootctl show --json --all 720p i2c.*
{"i2c.baud": 100000, "i2c.enabled": false}
