NAME

       knife-list - The man page for the knife list subcommand.

       The  knife list subcommand is used to view a list of objects on the server. This subcommand works similar
       to knife cookbook list, knife data bag list, knife environment list, knife  node  list,  and  knife  role
       list, but with a single verb (and a single action).

       Common Options

       The following options can be run with all Knife sub-commands and plug-ins:

       -c CONFIG, --config CONFIG
              The configuration file to use.

       --color
              Indicates that colored output will be used.

       -d, --disable-editing
              Indicates that $EDITOR will not be opened; data will be accepted as-is.

       --defaults
              Indicates that Knife will use the default value, instead of asking a user to provide one.

       -e EDITOR, --editor EDITOR
              The $EDITOR that is used for all interactive commands.

       -E ENVIRONMENT, --environment ENVIRONMENT
              The  name  of  the  environment. When this option is added to a command, the command will run only
              against the named environment.

       -f FILE_NAME, --file FILE_NAME
              Indicates that the private key will be saved to a specified file name.

       -F FORMAT, --format FORMAT
              The output format: summary (default), text, json, yaml, and pp.

       -h, --help
              Shows help for the command.

       -k KEY, --key KEY
              The private key that Knife will use to sign requests made by the API client to the server.

       --no-color
              Indicates that color will not be used in the output.

       -p PASSWORD, --password PASSWORD
              The user password.

       --print-after
              Indicates that data will be shown after a destructive operation.

       -s URL, --server-url URL
              The URL for the server.

       -u USER, --user USER
              The user name used by Knife to sign requests made by the API client to the server.  Authentication
              will fail if the user name does not match the private key.

       -v, --version
              The version of the chef-client.

       -V, --verbose
              Set for more verbose outputs. Use -VV for maximum verbosity.

       -y, --yes
              Indicates that the response to all confirmation prompts will be "Yes" (and that Knife will not ask
              for confirmation).

       Syntax

       This argument has the following syntax:

       $ knife list [PATTERN...] (options)

       Options

       This subcommand has the following options:

       -1     Indicates that only one results column will be shown.

       --chef-repo-path PATH
              The  path to the chef-repo. This setting will override the default path to the chef-repo. Default:
              same as specified by chef_repo_path in config.rb.

              The number of allowed concurrent connections. Default: 10.

       -d     Indicates that a directory's children will not be  shown  when  a  directory  matches  a  pattern.
              Default value: false.

       -f, --flat
              Indicates  that  a list of file names will be shown. Set to false to view ls-like output. Default:
              false.

       --local
              Indicates that only contents of the local directory will be returned. Default: false.

       -1     Indicates that only one column of results will be shown. Default: false.

       -p     Indicates that trailing slashes (/) will be shown for directories. Default: false.

       -R     Indicates that directories will be listed recursively. Default: false.

       --repo-mode MODE
              The layout of the local chef-repo. Possible values: static, everything, or hosted_everything.  Use
              static  for  just  roles,  environments,  cookbooks,  and  data  bags.  By default, everything and
              hosted_everything are dynamically selected depending on the server  type.  Default:  everything  /
              hosted_everything.

       Examples

       For example, to view a list of roles on the server:

       $ knife list roles/

       To view a list of roles and environments on the server:
